In a world of curated feeds and perfectly filtered moments, there's a growing craving for authenticity and genuine connection. BeReal. Your friends for real. is a social media app built on a simple, radical idea: once a day, at a random time, everyone gets a simultaneous notification to capture and share what they're *really* doing in two minutes—with both a front and back camera photo. There are no filters, no likes, and no public profiles. It's a refreshingly unfiltered window into the everyday lives of your closest friends, encouraging vulnerability, spontaneity, and realness over perfection.
Key Features That Make a Difference
- Daily BeReal Notification: Once a day, at a different time, everyone receives a notification to post within a 2-minute window. This creates a spontaneous, simultaneous snapshot of your friend group's day.
- Dual Camera Capture: The app takes two photos at once: one with your front camera (a selfie) and one with your back camera (your view), providing immediate context.
- No Filters & No Likes: The platform is intentionally stripped of vanity metrics and editing tools. You can only react to friends' posts with a "RealMoji"—a quick selfie reaction.
- Posting Late & Discovery: You can post after the 2-minute window, but your post will be marked as "late," and you can't see others' posts until you've shared your own.
- Private & Friends-Only: Your feed is strictly for the friends you add. There is no explore page or public content, making it a more intimate and trusted space.
Why You'll Love It
- It fosters a unique sense of shared, real-time presence and intimacy with your friends that other apps lack.
- The pressure to be "perfect" disappears. The charm is in the mundane, funny, and authentic moments.
- The daily prompt removes the burden of constantly deciding what to post, making social sharing feel low-pressure and fun again.
- Seeing the front and back camera together often tells a hilarious or heartwarming story that a single photo couldn't.
How to Use
- Click the button “Check All Versions” below to download and install BeReal. Your friends for real. on your device or browser.
- Create an account and allow camera access. Start adding your close friends from your contacts.
- Wait for the daily notification (e.g., "Time to BeReal."). When it arrives, you have 2 minutes to take your photo.
- Open the app, and it will automatically take a picture with both cameras simultaneously. You can retake if needed, but you can't upload from your gallery.
- Add a caption if you want, then post. Once you post, you can immediately see what all your friends posted at the same time.
- React to friends' posts by sending a "RealMoji"—a quick selfie that becomes an emoji-like reaction on their post.
