Everyone's always saying "I'm so obsesssed with this right now." Obsesssed turns that into a tiny daily ritual you share with your closest friends β€” and keep right on your home screen. Each day, post the one thing you're into: a song, an artist, a show, a movie, a book, a snack, a place, a word… anything. Add a note, a photo, or a link if you like. Your friends see it in their feed and on their widgets, and you see theirs. It's personal first, social second β€” a little object that's yours, shared with a small circle. No public feed to perform for. No selfie pressure. No streaks, no guilt. Just one lovely thing a day, editable until midnight. THE WIDGET IS THE POINT Add the Obsesssed widgets to your home screen and lock screen and glance at what you and your friends are obsesssed with today β€” without even opening the app. FRIENDS ONLY Everything you post is visible only to friends you've accepted. Add friends by username, accept or decline requests, and block or remove anyone, anytime.

Dress it with animated backgrounds and frames, and give style to your name (fonts, glow, neon) and to your message bubbles. Share it with a short link or a QR code. YOUR JOURNAL The film you saw last night, the book that stayed with you, the album on repeat: rate them in half stars, write your review, hide spoilers, note where you watched. Keep your wishes in lists, see what your friends rated, and look back on your month or your year in one shareable card. THE FEED Post what stays with you: a work with $, a friend with @, a topic with #. Add photos, start a poll, share your latest rating or an invitation to your group. Spoilers stay veiled.
