Your Social Layer for Real-World Events. NextSocial connects you to the people and moments around the events you attend. Whether it's a concert, conference, house party, or pickup game -- see what's happening, join the conversation, and relive it all later. How it works: RSVP to events. Post photos, chirps, and moments tied to those events. Discover what others are sharing at the same ones. It's social media that starts with showing up. Features: - Event-Scoped Content: Every post, photo, and chirp is tied to a real event -- giving your content context and your memories a place. - Chirps: Quick, threaded text posts about the events you're at. Think live commentary from the crowd. - Media: Share photos from events with a streamlined upload flow. Browse a quilted discover grid to see what's happening around you. - Moments: Ephemeral stories and boomerangs from your day, right from the main tab. - Discover Feed: Browse public events and content even before you RSVP. Find your next thing to attend. - AI Event Creation: Describe your event and let AI fill in the details -- schedule, recurrence, ticketing, all of it. - Profile Showcase: A redesigned profile with a showcase of up to 8 photos, drag-to-reorder, and one-tap profile picture swap. - Reactions and Messaging: Long-press to react, swipe to reply in chats, create events directly from conversations, and share invites with a tap. - Browse First, Sign Up Later: Explore the app freely. You'll only be asked to sign in when you want to post or interact. NextSocial is built around a simple idea: the best content comes from shared experiences. Stop scrolling past strangers. Start connecting at the events that matter to you. --- The main shifts from your old copy: - "Milestones" to "Events" -- the app is no longer about life milestones, it's about real-world events you attend - Passive to active -- old copy was about documenting memories; new copy is about participating in live events - Feature list reflects actual product -- chirps, media, moments, RSVP, discover, AI creation, showcase profiles - Removed features that no longer exist -- timeline view, smart reminders, milestone posting
