About this app

Social media wasn't built for your actual friends. It was built to keep you scrolling.

When did you last open Instagram to see what your best friend is actually doing? Instead, you got ads, influencers, and an algorithm deciding what matters. Hours later, you're watching strangers argue about something you don't care about.

Authentic is different.

Your close friends. Their real faces. Open the app and see the people who matter—what they're doing today, where they are. No feed. No algorithm. No ads. No influencers. Nothing to scroll through.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

HOW IT WORKS

Share photos with your people anytime. Your morning coffee. Your view from work. Dinner with family.

But there's also the Glimpse.

Once daily, at a random time, you get 2 minutes to share whatever you're doing right now. No planning. No staging. No filters. Just that moment.

You don't pick the perfect moment. The moment picks you.

Your people do the same. So you see their real, unplanned moments too. Tuesday afternoon at work. Saturday morning in bed. The ordinary parts. The real parts.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

WHY THIS EXISTS

I'm Atin. I built Authentic because I was tired of the doom scroll.

I wanted to see my friends without the noise. Without losing an hour I didn't plan to lose. Without feeling worse after than before.

So I built something smaller. Focused. A few minutes a day, not a few hours.

No hundred million dollars in funding. No growth hacking. No "engagement optimization." Just a place that respects your time and your relationships.
