Peopls is a community app built around real stories and gratitude—honest moments from real people. Explore what resonates with you, use free Boosts to help meaningful posts get noticed, and connect around participation that feels human—not endless noise. WHAT YOU CAN DO Browse full-screen stories and a gratitude feed from creators in the community. Use Boost (rocket) to increase a story’s visibility in the feed. Boost is free for everyone (monthly allowance shown in the app). Boost does not move money to creators and is not a paid vote. Use Power (P) to cast participation votes on stories that matter to you. Power votes require an active annual community membership (where available). Members receive 10 Power votes per month (allowance shown in the app). Power is not a charitable donation, not a direct payment from you to another user, and not a guarantee of any story result or payout. Optional yearly community membership with Peopls Inc. — $17.99/year, auto-renewing where offered. On iPhone, subscribe and manage renewal only through In-App Purchase (App Store). Membership includes Power votes as described in the app and in our Terms. Boost stays free for everyone with or without membership. Creators can publish stories, track progress, and—where eligible—request payouts subject to verification, moderation, Peopls Terms, and any applicable platform fee. WHAT BOOST & POWER ARE NOT Not for government elections, political voting, or any official ballot. They do not determine public office or legal results. Not a 501(c)(3) charity experience: Peopls Inc. is a for-profit Public Benefit Corporation (PBC). Payments are not tax-deductible charitable contributions. IMPORTANT Peopls is intended for users 18+. By using the app, you agree to our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy (available in the app and on peopls.app). SAFETY & RULES We provide moderation, reporting, and Community Guidelines. What you see and what you can do may depend on your account, region, and product rules shown in the app. PAYMENTS & ELIGIBILITY Membership price, fees, taxes, availability, and eligibility can vary by region and platform. On iOS, the annual membership is purchased through the App Store. Story payouts and allocations remain subject to Peopls review and published policies.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Artistica at none against Peopls's 1. Peopls's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
