This is an app that is a bit different than others. It allows you to add descriptions on a daily basis about the things that you're interested in doing and what keeps you busy. You can also include images that you find online or those that you take from your mobile device. When you use the app, the goal is to make an impression on other people about your life. You try to get people to understand how you think and who you are instead of only giving a few details. It's similar to Facebook and other social media pages, but it allows you to get a bit more creative with what you include. After creating your account, you can scroll through the pages to see what other people have posted. You can also link your contacts on your device to the app so that you don't have to search for everyone's information as long as they use the app as well. You can customize your homepage or use one of the templates that are available. As you add information about yourself to your page, the app also adds details based on your preferences. You can remove this information if you don't want it on the page. A fun feature of the app is that the information that is shared is on mobile cards. It almost looks like tarot cards or playing cards. All you have to do is tap the screen to rotate from one card to another. You can start writing your story as a draft, saving information and changing it before it's published. There is also an editing system that helps with spelling and ensuring that everything is just right before you complete the pages.
