Rewind is the diary of your nights. Every festival, every club, every party deserves better than a photo lost in your camera roll. With Rewind, you keep a record of everything you've lived and share it with the people who were there. YOUR PROFILE, YOUR SHOWCASE Your profile brings all your events together in a gallery that's yours. Three layouts to scroll through your memories like a magazine. ADD YOUR MEMORIES IN SECONDS A name, a date, a place, your photos, and it's saved. Create your own event types with the color of your choice: wedding, afterwork, rooftop, birthday… whatever you want. TAG WHO WAS THERE Add your friends to any event. "I was there too": in one tap, you appear on the night as well. See who was there, and relive it together. YOUR FRIENDS, THEIR NIGHTS Follow your friends' memories in your feed. Like, react, and discover everything they've lived on their profile. DISCOVER WHERE TO GO OUT The "For You" section suggests upcoming events near you, based on your nights out and your taste. Every suggestion tells you why it's there. Rewind doesn't sell your data and shows no ads. Your memories are yours. Rewind. Relive. Repeat.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Rewind. at none against Online Chat's shown. Rewind. also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
