I made this app (with others) to learn swift in my spare time. I think Snapchat is universe denting but lacked a few things that I wanted for friends, family, and me. These are: - Multiple stories - Stories that can live forever - Sharing on other social networks with deep linking - Web embedding - @mentions - comments, likes, repost This was a super fun app to build and we are going to keep riffing on it.

Personally not convinced that the combo of Snapchat + Instagram profile is a big enough draw/differentiator to get people to use this vs using their current apps Also is the app logo (of a unicorn) an unsubtle 'subliminal' message to the tech world 😜

Great effort here. Nice product. You're splitting snail hairs in a supersaturated space, but hell, I wish you guys all the best.

I love the Snapchat + Instagram combo. Very well executed! I'd be interested to learn more about the backend. Congrats!

So it's IG with the ability to overlay text?
