Remember those late-night talks where a random question somehow led to the best conversations? We made that into an app. Unspoken is a text-only social app where everyone gets the same question every day. Answer however you want: be funny, profound, unhinged, anything. Then see what everyone else had to say. No photos. No filters. Just what you actually think. HOW IT WORKS Every day, at the same time, a new question drops for everyone. Write your answer, check out what others wrote, react, comment, and engage. At the end of each day, the answers people connect with most rise to the top. YOUR PROFILE, YOUR STORY Over time, your profile becomes a collection of your answers: your thoughts, stories, intricacies, and everything that makes you unique. Kind of like a peek into your inner world. FEATURES - A new curated question every single day - Text-only: no pressure to look perfect - 30+ reactions and threaded comments - Nominate friends to answer specific questions - Leaderboards and karma points - Home screen and lock screen widget - Share answers to Instagram, iMessage, and more - Voice dictation for hands-free answers Your best stories are the ones you haven't shared…yet :)

Each Spime is a live, location-based space where: - People nearby capture photos and videos - Everything is shared instantly - You see the moment from every perspective The more people around you use Spime, the more angles everyone gets. Only people there can post. That means: - No old content - No reposts - No fake moments Everything is captured in the app — as it happens, while the Spime is live. One moment. Many angles. Open a Spime and see: - Different perspectives - Real reactions - The full picture as it unfolds Start your own shared camera. Create a shared camera (a Spime) around your current location. - Set the radius - Make it public or private (access by QR code) - Optionally hide it, so only people physically there can enter - Or hide its location, so people can see something is happening — but not where Bring people together — instantly.
