Introducing: Friends Feed

We have some exciting news to share, we have launched a new Friends Feed on WeAre8.

Our new feature literally makes social media good again, where you can keep up to date with the ones you love and share your world free from filters, ads and algorithms. The feed is set to private by default, so it's only viewable to you and your mates, how good is that!


No Algorithms: See what you want to see, when you want to see it
Zero Tolerance for Hate: Feel the freedom to express yourself without judgment
No Ads or Influencers:
Just you and your friends, uninterrupted

The new Friends Feed extends the content breadth of the platform, empowering all citizens of WeAre8 to contribute content to the App, a function previously reserved for verified Content Creators. The new feature is also set to private as default, meaning the content is only accessible to friends that you personally approve within their account profile.

WeAre8 Founder & CEO, Sue Fennessy said, “These new features are some of the biggest platform enhancements we have made to WeAre8 since launching in early 2022.

“As the social app geared towards good and reconnection, we hope these new features help create a greater sense of community and provide more ways for people to express their personality, all while knowing their time on social media is also helping make the world a better place."

Recent data shows that more than 54%* of people say they use social media to follow family and friends. WeAre8’s new Friends Feed is designed to give people a product feature many social platforms are no longer providing, with people's social feeds often coupled with influencer content and advertising.

The separate Friends Feed will only display content from those that matter most to you and is completely decoupled from advertising and the creator experience.

WeAre8 is the world's only sustainable social media app that has zero tolerance for hate, supports charities and climate solutions, is about celebrating the good in life and can even put money back into people's wallets through a revolutionary advertising experience.

WeAre8 is available to download now from Apple App Store or Google Play.
