Picster gives those moments a place to be shared and remembered, with the friends you choose. SHARE A LITTLE, OR THE WHOLE STORY Post a favorite photo or bring up to 10 together. Add a few words, put your photos in the order you like, and share what you’ve been up to. LET FRIENDS INTO YOUR DAY See something worth sharing? Open the camera and send a Moment. It stays on your profile, so you and your friends can come back to it long after the day is over. TURN A PHOTO INTO A CONVERSATION Send a reaction, share a laugh, or reply just to your friend. Private replies keep the conversation between the two of you. STAY CLOSE, AT YOUR OWN PACE Catch up on your friends’ latest photos and revisit your own memories whenever you feel like it.
