WTF is BeReal?
BeReal hit #1 on the app stores by promising a more genuine social experience. It was popular for months, but the gimmick got boring and it fell off.
Yeah, my friends and I used it a lot for about 6 months before we just stopped because it would start sending notifications at times when we were busy, but I would forget about it after a few minutes since I didn’t care much about using it. Sometimes I was in a lecture hall busy taking notes, other times I wouldn’t even check my phone and miss the notification to post.
