BeReal is the simplest photo-sharing app where you and your friends post once a day to show what you’re really up to.
Every day at a random time, everyone gets the same two-minute window to take and share a photo. The camera snaps both the front and back simultaneously, capturing the real moment. No filters — just real life, as it happens.
You won’t find influencers here. You’ll find your friends making coffee, walking to class, lying on the floor, laughing at nothing, or stuck in traffic. It’s not about looking perfect. It’s about being present and staying connected in a way that’s honest, unfiltered, and sometimes unintentionally hilarious.
Post on time or post late—it still counts. Comment, react with your face using RealMojis, or just scroll through your circle’s day. Your BeReal feed is private by default, unless you choose to go public and see what others are up to around the world.
If you’re tired of chasing clout and scrolling endless edits, BeReal is your once-a-day reset. One daily notification. Two minutes. Real friends, real moments.
Download BeReal and join the social network that’s not trying to be one.
The simple photo-only feed gives an authentic glimpse into the lives of what friends and loved ones are doing, seeing and experiencing.
Great app, but needs a penalty for late posting

Love the app as it encourages interaction that you maybe wouldn't find on any other channel. I'd like to suggest a way for people to continue using it the way it's supposed to be used. Some users wait until they're doing something worth documenting, or until they've gone up from bed. Idk bro this isn't Instagram. Perhaps this should warrant a penalty - such as blurring their friends' posts until they post on time for 3 consecutive days. Something like that. I'm here to see people be REAL, not be another staged version of them...
Please don’t include celebrities and brands ‼️

Hello developers, for anyone seeing this, I saw the recent survey asking whether we’d like to see certain celebrities and brand BeReals on the app, and I just wanted to stress that I’d very much prefer if this was not implemented! I absolutely love this app and the simplicity it brings. I take pride in the fact that it’s not like any other social media platform since it focuses on real connection with a small group of friends only 🥹 That’s the main selling point for me, so I hope you’d take this into consideration for your future plans 💗 Overall, loving the app, and I hope it doesn’t change its essence and purpose !
I love the memories

As someone who forgot so easily on what had happened last week or just yesterday with Be Real i could see what my day was like. Though i hope that they bring back the slideshow like last year and a YearBook! I love Being Real and I hope that there is more to this app💗
