Pathly is a new social platform that brings everyday sharing and real opportunities together. Share your moments in photos, videos, and text. Your posts stay on your profile and are never deleted, so over time they build a record that reflects who you are and that your followers can come back to. The Host feature is for projects only. Any business or project owner with a commercial registration can create a “path” to announce an opportunity: a part-time or full-time job, an event, a new opening, or a live show, with the location, date, and number of spots needed. Interested people apply from inside the app, and the host reviews the applications and accepts the right fit. The result: one place where you follow the people you care about and discover projects and opportunities near you. PATHLY PREMIUM Pathly Premium is an optional auto-renewing subscription. After a 7-day free trial it renews at USD 27 per year, or the equivalent price in your local currency shown in the App Store. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically at the same price unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple Account settings. Terms of Use (EULA): https://pathly.sa/terms.html Privacy Policy: https://pathly.sa/privacy.html
