I built Friendsnap – share photos straight to your friends' Home Screen widget 📸

by•

Hey everyone! I just launched Friendsnap, an iPhone app for sharing photos and short videos with close friends, with no feed and no sign-up. You take a photo and it shows up as a widget on their Home Screen.

What it does

  • One widget per friend, always showing their latest photo

  • Streaks, challenges and a new photo prompt every day

  • Reactions with any emoji, chat, stickers, drawing and filters

  • Invite friends with a link (iMessage, WhatsApp, Telegram, Instagram)

  • Photos are encrypted on your device before upload and stored in your own iCloud. No ads, no tracking.

Pricing: Free. Premium (€2.99/month or €28.99/year) adds custom widget frames, app colors, scheduled photos and a longer history.

For the community: use code FRIENDSNAP3 for 3 months of Premium free:

App Store:

I'd really like your feedback: what would make you use something like this every day? Any feature ideas are welcome!
