JustReals is a mobile-first social video app with one hard rule: you record in the app — no camera roll, no upload pipeline. Share short moments that fade in 48 hours, so feeds stay fresh instead of becoming a permanent highlight reel. Reply with video, not walls of text. Follow friends in Following, discover new voices on World. One-time selfie verification keeps bots out and becomes your profile photo when approved. Private profiles, blocking, and reporting built in.
Hey Product Hunt — I'm Robert, solo dev behind JustReals.
I built this App because social video had started to feel like a content farm: reposts, edited clips, and feeds that never let go. JustReals is the opposite — capture-only, video replies, and moments that disappear in 48 hours.
The constraint changes behavior. People post what’s actually happening, not what looks best in an archive. No gallery uploads means less spam and fewer fake accounts — plus selfie verification before you can post.
Following is for friends; World is for discovery. No pressure to perform.
It’s free on the App Store & Google Play.
I’d genuinely love your feedback:
Would you use a social app that doesn’t allow camera-roll uploads?
Does ephemeral video feel more human, or too limiting?
Happy to answer anything about the product, tech, or why an indie dev is taking on social video. Thanks for checking us out.
