About BeReal

BeReal is a social photo-sharing app built around one daily prompt. At a random moment each day, users get a short window to capture and share a photo, so the feed shows spontaneous moments instead of staged or edited posts.

Its signature format uses the front and back cameras together, showing both the scene and the person taking the picture. The app avoids filters and uploads from the camera roll and focuses on seeing what close friends are doing rather than following public figures. The company also offers advertising, news and verification pages for businesses and creators.

BeReal is a hosted consumer mobile app and has no self-hosted option. It targets everyday users who want a low-pressure way to stay in touch with friends, and it is not a tool for businesses to run on their own infrastructure.
