Suppr is the review app built for group chats. Review movies, shows, books, restaurants, and anything you cook—then share it with the people whose opinions actually matter. WHY SUPPR? • No followers, public profiles, or reviews from strangers. • Suppr lives inside iMessage, where you already talk with your friends. • Every review is shared with your group and saved in one place. • Your group builds its own library of what everyone watched, read, ate, and recommended. • When you need something new, you can find the recommendation your friend sent months ago instead of searching through thousands of messages. HOW IT WORKS 1. Open Suppr inside an iMessage conversation. 2. Create a Suppr group or join an existing one. 3. Review something and share it directly in the chat. 4. Suppr saves every review so your group can always come back to it. Your friends already have great taste. Suppr makes sure the group chat doesn’t forget it.
