  1. The problem with this is the dangerous assumption that social media and the physical world are separated. We live in a augmented reality, where social media and the real world interconnect.

  2. I love this idea! Wonder how they’re gonna get around ppl curating their content though.

  3. About time BeReal got some recognition!!

  4. Social media is the downfall of society

  5. I am being real right now. I am a creator of real and also fictional content. Ask an actor to be real, poparotzy real? lol come on! Oh and by the way, being real right now, I think this is an ad for bereal.

  6. Nope! I am on tiktok and youtube, off twitter nope not going there, no desire to see that.

  7. Anything that competes with IG is great

  8. CALLING all people to ISLAM

    Why ?

    And WHAT IS ISLAM REALLY ?

    ISLAM IS REVEALED FAITH SENT DOWN BY GOD FOR ALL MANKIND

    TRUE FAITH

    IF YOU ARE NOT IN ISLAM YOU ARE NOT IN THE TRUE FAITH

    ISLAM IS NOT CHANGEABLE

    WHATEVER GOD SENT DOWN TO THE PROPHET MUHAMMAD……THAT IS ISLAM

    DISCOVER ISLAM
    BE IN ISLAM
    DO NOT DIE WITHOUT BEING IN ISLAM
    TRUE FAITH

  9. Introverts could careless about this crap. Be real in the real world why feel the need to take your pictures/selfies, no one cares to see you every hour of the day 🤦🏼‍♀️

  10. The concept of this app doesn’t mean to “unplug” or cutting back screen time. It means to literally be real and post what ur doing rn when the timer goes off! A lot of y’all are missing the point !

  11. I love this idea! Wonder how they’re gonna get around ppl curating their content though.

  12. Isn’t real more social and less media? This app is oxymoronic!

  19. In America Censorship is good, the truth cannot hurt you anymore only lies can. It's called the American dream and reality just gets in the way. Alternative facts is better than having no facts at all … Make America great again vote to stay stupid,

  23. Social media ISN’T a real place!

  24. Like no offense to them or this app. BUT if i want real, I'll go outside. Social media for me at least takes me to a lalaland where things are pretty and a fantasy. I don't want to see people on their couch lol.

  25. SO they are trying to mash together snapchat and ticktok…. ridiculous

  26. How about actually spending time with family and friends, talking to people in real life, socializing and 'be real'.

  27. A 20 second news clip dragged out to 3 minutes, lets "be real".

    Media apps- Facebook and Instagram – it’s all crap.
