Quit social media. Keep your people. Snickerdoodle is a private app for sharing photos, videos, and updates with your friends and family. No ads, no algorithm, no strangers, and no feed full of AI slop from accounts you never followed. PRIVATE: Nothing is public, ever. Your posts are seen by your friends and, if you choose, their friends — never to strangers, search engines, or the open web. NO ADS, NO TRACKING: A small monthly subscription replaces the entire ad-and-data-mining model. We don't sell your information. It belongs to you. NO ALGORITHM: Your main feed is every post from your friends, newest first — and with one tap, their friends' posts too. Nothing buried, nothing deciding what you should see. This isn't a popularity contest. This is your friends' content in real-time. CHAT: Have 1-on-1 and group conversations with friends. Friends can also invite their friends to conversations with you, just like introducing in person — the old fashioned way. DE-STRESS: Social media wasn't supposed to raise your heart rate. Without strangers, bots, and rage bait in your feed, it doesn't have to. FOUNDING MEMBERSHIP: Choose the yearly plan to become a founding member. Founding memberships are limited to 200, and each founding member gets 12 free lifetime memberships to give to friends and family. PRICING: Snickerdoodle is free to download, and you need a membership to use it: $4.99 a month or $49.99 a year. Your membership is how we pay the bills, so there are no ads and we never sell your data. Apple Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
