fiammo vs Aora SJSU

fiammo is a place to write something small every day, for the people you choose, and let it go. Each day there's a prompt. Answer it in a line or a page, or tap one of its options and say why. Write it as a post for your friends, or keep it to Just me, where only you can read it. On Saturdays the prompt asks how your week went, in two taps. A post burns after a while: it's there for a day, then it's gone, so what you write is for now, not for a record. Your friends are in circles you make, and every post goes to the circles you pick, or to a few people by name. A post is only public if you make it public. Add photos or a video, a voice note with its words beneath it, or the place you wrote it, and tag the friends who were there. Write on a day and your streak burns: a fire that grows the longer you keep it, with Puff, the ember, living at it. Miss a day and a match can relight it. Once you've answered the day's question, guess what one friend picked. You find out when their answer is in, and over time you see who knows you best. When something a friend wrote stays with you, echo it: choose the line, add a note if you like, and it goes to them as a message. Echoes are how conversations start here. Messages are encrypted end to end, one to one and in group chats. Only the people in a conversation can read it. Send photos, videos, voice notes, links with a preview, and reactions, and share a link from another app straight into a conversation. A message written without a connection sends when you're back. Open a conversation's details to see everything the two of you have shared, gathered by month. Discover is the public side: posts anyone chose to make public, and people you may know. A profile can point to where else someone writes. At the start of each month, fiammo offers you a dump of the last one: your photos, a few posts worth bringing back, and what you wrote about, for the circles you choose. A post of yours, even one that has burned, can go out as a link that lasts a day. Catch up is a private list of people you want to stay close to, with a reminder on a schedule you set, so keeping in touch isn't left to chance. Over time, your writing becomes a sky: a constellation read once a week from what you wrote, with a star for each thing you keep coming back to. Your profile keeps the month's writing at a glance, and turns over to show your fire. fiammo is for a small circle, not a crowd. Write for the people who matter to you, and let the rest burn.

Aora is your school, full screen. Open it and you see what your campus is actually doing right now. It's not an endless feed from everywhere. It's the people you go to class with, where your friends are, and the plans forming for tonight. NOW Say what you're down for in one tap: food, the gym, studying, a party. Pick a start and end time, add a place, and choose who sees it and who gets a ping. Friends tap I'm down, and anyone who can see it can ask to come. THE MAP Your campus on one map. See friends who share their location with you, every plan and event pinned where it's happening, and the places your friends want to go. Tap a friend to see where they are, how far away, and the weather there, then get directions in Apple Maps. PLANS Start one in a few taps with a place, a day, a time and a cover. Say you're going and your face lands on it. Friends can comment and invite people, and everyone going gets a ping when it starts. PLACES Save the spots you want to try and see which friends want to go too. Mark the ones you've been, rate them, and add a photo. Any saved place turns into a plan in one tap. POSTS AND BURST Post a photo or video in one shutter. Hold the shutter to shoot a Burst, then swipe through and keep your favorites in Memories. Add any of them to your profile whenever you like. NIGHTS THAT ACTUALLY HAPPEN Host an event in under a minute. Send one link and people RSVP by name, whether or not they have Aora. See which friends are going, run the door from your phone, keep a waitlist, and share one album with everyone who was there. SHARE YOUR LOCATION, YOUR WAY Choose exactly who sees you and for how long. Friends you share with see where you are, your battery, and whether you're on your way. Stop any time. BUMP TO FOLLOW Hold two phones back to back to follow each other instantly. YOUR HOUSE, IN ONE PLACE If you're in a house, it gets its own page with announcements, a calendar, an album, points, dues, contacts and a roster, one tap from Home. MESSAGES Reply to anything and it opens a thread. Send a voice note, or ask a friend for a pic of what they're up to. CRUSHES Pick people quietly. Nobody is told unless it goes both ways. --- Aora is campus only. You join with a school email or an invite from someone already in, and you only ever see your own school. Every post can be reported and every account can be blocked, both ways, instantly. We have zero tolerance for objectionable content and abusive users.
