With the new feed, you\u2019ll get a glimpse into what everyone you may know is up to \u2013 in all their authentic glory.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Friends of Friends follows our mission to keep you connected with the people you really care about and to <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">continue discovering how we\u2019re all perfectly imperfect.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Starting today, Friends of Friends will be available globally. Here\u2019s how it works:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Sharing a new BeReal with Friends of Friends:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019ll be able to select whether you prefer to share your\u00a0 BeReal with your friends as normal \ud83d\udd87\ufe0f or also in the Friends of Friends feed by tapping the audience option and selecting \u2018My friends + their friends\u2019. Your BeReal will never show up in the Friends of Friends feed unless you opt-in.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Sharing an existing BeReal with Friends of Friends:<br \/>\n<\/b>You\u2019ll have the option to change the audience setting at any time after posting by tapping the three-dot menu in the top right corner and choosing the option to change your audience.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Removing a user from your Friends of Friends feed:<br \/>\n<\/b>You can permanently remove a mutual friend from showing in your Friends of Friend feed by tapping the \u274c in the top right corner of their BeReal (this will also remove them from your friend suggestions).<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Say goodbye to the old Discovery Feed<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:<br \/>\n<\/span>We love to experiment, and Discovery Feed was something that didn&#8217;t quite make the cut. Now that users can explore posts from people who are already within the orbit of their close circle, the global Discovery Feed will be eliminated \ud83e\ude93.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Oh, and we\u2019re continuing to make improvements to existing features so you\u2019ll see lots more of those coming, including \u2026a<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">longside Friends of Friends, we\u2019re also rolling out:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Pins<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \ud83d\udccc: <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019ve captured some of your most precious moments <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2728<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">with us, and now you can share those with your friends through your profile anytime you want to relive the BeReal. Your pinned BeReal posts are viewable on your profile and only by your BeReal friends. You can pin up to 3 BeReal on your profile. Once pinned, they remain on your profile until you decide to remove or replace them.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Mentions<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \ud83e\udd33:\u00a0 We\u2019ve heard people wanting to be able to mention their friends in their BeReal. Now you can mention a friend in a BeReal caption by typing @ followed by their BeReal full name or username (this feature will continue to evolve\ud83d\udcc8).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Improved Friend Recommendations<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \ud83d\udcdd: We\u2019ve created a more data-driven way to show the people who might be in your circle but not on your current friends list. Now, you\u2019ll see friend suggestions throughout the app based on who you\u2019re already interacting with on BeReal.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We\u2019d love to hear what you think about Friends of Friends and any other updates we\u2019re making.
