No followers, no recommendation feed, no strangers. โ–  18 seconds, then send Pick a video from your library, trim it to 18 seconds, and post. No editing to agonize over. โ–  Sign in without a password A passkey (Face ID / Touch ID) is all you need. No password, no phone number, no email address to register. For sharing the small moments of your day with a handful of people, as something that passes rather than something that stays.
