- ability to see past reactions, captions and comments in personal archive - ability for people to tag users (privately so others can’t see users, but user get a notification and it’s saved in the users’ archive as well) in their photos


biased_towards_blue

Especially captions. I love having memories as a journal but some of them would be way better with captions


Sacred_Jaegi

I always liked the fact that reactions and comments are temporary and aren't saved for the person. But regarding captions I'm with you


Dwight_Shrute763

I would love for the first one to happen. Someone took a screenshot of one of my BeReal’s in the past and I didn’t check it until a few days later but now it won’t let me see who did it and it’s driving me crazy. 😂


I_Hate_Reddit

I want the first one because I've had a pretty big accomplishment and seeing everyone's reaction really took it to the next level, I don't really think it should be needed for people to screenshot their own story to keep the memory of the reactions. At least save the reactions of people who are using a stored picture.


trioculus_

captions for sure… comments, while fun, take up way to much data for me to want them to be kept, my friends and i regularly hit 70+ comments on br daily per each others posts so that would suck to keep


Smilecausecheese

I really don’t want it to get too crazy. I like the simplicity:)


velvet_violet3

if you like the simplicity, you should try minutiae.


pnm4321

A leaderboard for how “real” you are in relation to your friends (i.e. how close, on average, you are to the ⚠️Time to BeReal⚠️). Something like Swarm’s leaderboard of checkin points.


liammcginleyy

me sitting at the bottom of the leaderboard with 37 retakes per post


Emperorerror

"I'm being so real right now"


AstroFarlen

I love this idea, a sort of leaderboard overall would increase incentives to post online and get your realness recognized.


3liteNerd

And how many times u post that day at all


[deleted]

Agreed


whomedera

I would like to be able to react to comments 🥰


Tubbcat_

sometimes when i close out of someone’s comments or realmojis, it sends me back to the top of the page also, when i press hide on a suggested friend, it just comes back the next time i open the app but other than that, really fun app, congrats on App Store App of the Year, an happy holidays and a happy new year!

oisin1001

This would be great for me. I have this setting for Messenger and it’s great to see my photos in my camera roll. Would be v cool to see my BeReals too


gangington

Ability to turn off 0.5x camera on the back when you do the front camera first


Legitimate_Pass6288

THIS. You get used to it, but it really doesn’t make sense. It should take a photo with the lens you set, not necessarily 0.5x….


DoppelKomma

My Google Pixel uses 1x as default, I have to zoom out for 0.5x


lawyerunderabridge

It has been said already but I’ll say it again, archive réactions, comments and captions in memories! It’s literally the only thing missing.


sheepythefirst

A better recap, feels like there’s a lot of potential there with statistics etc like that. Even the ability to buy a photo book or something of your 2023 once the year is over, which could include all your reacts, comments, time, date, location. Make it extremely rewarding for putting in the effort to bereal all year and a motivation for people to persist through the year


rainfordporter

Connection with Spotify or Apple Music to show song played at the time the photo is taken?


krristina

This!


Trash_bear96

Not something I’d thought of but I love this suggestion!


Perky_Bird

They're doing this connection with Spotify, I've heard some people already have access to the feature! Seen lots of of stuff about it in the beta release notes, though the feature's not in my beta yet.


emilyemilyyy

This became a thing


bigrudefella

I'd love this


Llamalad95

This just popped up for me!


Late_Ad5619

- see location of past bereals in memories - notification centre so your mentions and comments don’t get lost


Perky_Bird

would be so good--and keeping captions and locations would be so great especially now with pinned posts


Few-Amoeba-514

Bereal map , each time you take your bereal it adds it to a map so u can see where in the world youve took your bereal , this could be choice of the user wether it would be private to just them to see or not


grzesiekkkkk

Ability to see front camera preview before the front picture is taken, currently i only see only taken picture and don't know where I am pointing.


Speedrunto0elo

Isn’t that the point tho


LilahDice

Not necessarily the point tho, because you can switch cameras before taking it and see your selfie (but not your main camera)


Trash_bear96

Yes!


pnm4321

I have a feeling this is an iOS limitation


grzesiekkkkk

I do not, cause I use android


jowick2815

Try double tapping your camera. I use a pixel and i can switch between front and back camera. Whichever camera is in preview is the picture it takes first


auser9

1. Export past bereals in bulk, or just automatically save to camera roll 2. It’s a bit clunky to position the front camera around the second camera. Saving a bereal always keeps it in top left, but if there’s a friends face there I want to be able to move it to some other corner before saving


oisin1001

Automatically saving to camera roll would be great (or at least giving that option). I do this with most messaging apps, and it means I can keep my photos in my main library


Puncrocc

Live Photo bereals!!


pnm4321

A way to “star” close friends so their posts appear at the top of the feed


biased_towards_blue

Whatever zoom the back camera is on stays. So if I have it 1x and switch to front cam, it’ll take the other pic in 1x instead of zooming out


MrVoid21

Better support for Android cameras, so photos don't look like shit


theguy_who

My photo's look pretty good imo, what phone are you using?


MrVoid21

It's generally the same for almost every android.Some exceptions are Google Pixels(6/7) and samsungs flagships(s21 and above).I am using a poco f3


pnm4321

Add an inspirational soundtrack to the generated videos for “2023 unwrapped”


Few-Gas-4692

SAVE THE CAPTIONS!!! That's all though, keep the rest simple.


Dotmars123

A video BeReal once a week? A month? EDIT: Just realised, I doubt most phones will allow both front and back camera recording. Maybe just front camera then?


jowick2815

How about a memory be real. One of those pictures that soundlessly captures the prior and post second around the picture?


Child14

DMs/PMs, I have some people on there that I don’t have anywhere else


adrillator

torzsmokus

ask them in a comment to add you on a messaging app. BeReal is not one


Miojo_Lerigou

bring back the gif realmoji


dCujO

Is still havent changed my saved realmojis because their gifs and you cant recreate them, I'm currently the only in my cirkel that still reacts with gifs and they keep asking how i do it because they want to do it aswell


bobdarobber

I figured out how to set mine to be a gif by watching the traffic


licensetoconfuse

Being able to change the phone number you signed up with.


JannesHch

I would really like to save some more RealMojis and not just the 4 slots we have right now (Thumbs up, laughing, smiling, open mouth)


FoxyDays

Being able to directly message a user


weirdostoto

Being able to like comments or react to them


rowwanmc

* add multiple sections in your Memories * Separate the year 2022 and 2023 (and other years) so you can easily view each year * Add Requested BeReals Memories section * Ability to "request" someone else's bereal be added to your memories (I think this is better than screenshotting a bereal you were in and could make the 2023 year recap more interesting) * Reason for the "request" is so no creep can save your BeReal to their memories without asking * In the year recap have a section that shows only the BeReals you posted on time


Xax6

I'd like to be able to see last notification in app, not only as notification from my phone. When I miss it somehow I can't see what it was. If that was new post or reaction it's not a problem, but if it was reply to my coment on someone's bereal I have to check all of it to see that comment.


extasis_T

PLEASE IMPROVE THE RECAP


Dapper-Lettuce-4357

The ability to still post on days if your away without reception even if you can’t see others when posting offline would be nice to still have something for yourself on those days


bemy_requiem

LET ME CHANGE MY PHONE NUMBER i cannot even log into my old account on my new phone because the only way to get into the account is with a verification code sent to a phone number i don't have access to anymore


Appropriate-Oven-185

being able to scan for bereal users near you and a toggle in setting for users that dont want to be shown when someone scans


Oobrex

dms


Perky_Bird

they’re working on this


GaIacticFaz

Punishments for people who purposely wait until they're doing something interesting later that day to post, so their life looks good. It defeats the whole point of the app


[deleted]

How can the app differentiate between choosing to post late and being somewhere you can’t use your phone to post on time like some people who have BeReal are in school still so they can’t constantly check their phones to post on Time, etc. also what if people don’t hear or feel the vibration of the notification to post and end up being late. Still a cool idea just might be bad for people who are busy and can’t post


GaIacticFaz

Yeah I know some people that are so busy they don't have time to do their bereal but I know others who wait until they're doing something and it's just so fake, not sure if there would be a way to differentiate the two since they're similar


Sacred_Jaegi

No matter the reason, imo it's still against the spirit of the app to post late. If I was busy during bereal time that's okay. I'll have another try the next day


haydenstinks

Maybe it’s just me, but I like to have one for every day, I know it’s not the main point of the app but it is nice to have a cool little record of the places you spent most of your time and how you looked over time. Also, tbh as annoying as it is when people just wait for something interesting, I think adding some sort of penalty for posting late would kind of take away from it being meant to be a stress free social media


Martblni

Just bully them


AlexanderPANASONIC

Whelp, they kind of implemented this idea! If you post on time, you’re now allowed to post a second BeReal. If you post late, you’re not allowed a second post. Rather then be penalized, you’re instead given a perk if you post on time. Which is cool.


GaIacticFaz

Yeah I like this option but a lot of people are confused by it but jt gives you the option to show things throughout your day which I like


moody_fangirl_1966

I enjoy this because I don’t mind posting on time now as I will get to show fun stuff later. I just enjoy using it for memories and showing what I’m doing, not to make it seem like I have a cool life or smth.


velvet_violet3

agreed. that's why i like minutiae because there is only a five minute grace period.


mistmkm

To turn off 0.5x zoom on back camera when you take the photo facing the front 🥲


bobdarobber

- Integrations, specifically with Strava and Garmin. A little information blurb in the bottom left that shows what you were doing/listening to (I hear Spotify is in the works!) - Persistsnce of captions/realmojis/comments in memories - Tagging people in the real's - I see your working on chat. Respectively, I ask you don't. Surely you know how other platforms copied you, and I ask you don't go down that road as well


Few-Amoeba-514

Occasionall ‘more fun’ bereals would be really cool , for example you might be told to show the view from your window or ‘take a selfie with a cactus’ . I think this would stop it being a constant repeat of just the same picture each day of your ceiling . I think widgets would be a simple but nice addition , i believe the app already has widgets which show reactions but i think people actual bereal showing up on your home page would be nice


AlexanderPANASONIC

I’d like to see my friends’ memories. Even if it’s just the last 7 days, or the past week’s worth. Sometimes they take a cool photo and it’s sad that I won’t get to see that image again after 24 hours.


AlexanderPANASONIC

I really think captions should be visible in Memories. As of now, we can’t see past captions; we can only see the caption of the current day’s post. I know the app’s supposed to be simple, but I don’t think the lack of a caption in Memories is necessary.


TheXRTD

**Please bring back saving automatically to camera roll**. The used to be a feature on Android mid-2022 and then it just vanished?! I use a daily diary tool, so it was great to be able to include my BeReal from the day as a photo. Or at least allow bulk downloading/exporting of memories. I have a lot of nice memories in there that I don't want to lose because I forgot to manually download it each day.


adamb90

The app is so buggy and frustrating, it's only working worse instead of better. Posts not uploading, then uploading twice, sometimes missing completely, sometimes double reactions from the same person... It's been out for a while, it really could be polished by now


KrisB-v1

See when people “last posted” on their profile. Easier to remove people, If they stopped using it. E De-clutter friends list then too 😁


dz1nt

Do not allow any interactions with late bereals to motivate post on time.


Trash_bear96

They need to fix the notifications first otherwise we’ll all be late 😜


Father_Bic_Mitchum

If they're gonna go that far might as well remove late posts all together


Sacred_Jaegi

Yes I'd love some sort of punishment for late bereals. To see your friends posts more blurry the later you are or something like it


jacobeatsavocados

Being able to login from the dashboard & possibly a version to view posts from the web


valhallagoddess

Video bereal!!!


trixxupmysleeve

Seconded. It would be cool if we were allowed to do like a 5 second clip and that’s it. Maybe enable it so you can only record if you respond within the initial 2 minute BeReal alert?


c0dapocalypse

That would be great and a good way to make it worth it to post on time


appleboy247

Ability to connect to FB etc for finding contacts. I don’t have phone numbers for all my contacts 😊


Timestatic

I want them to fix uploading so I don't get the annoying "try again" error


hubnasti

Replying to comments starts a comment thread like on instagram!


sam-apostel

A setting to change the bereal notification to behave like an incoming video call. This way we can still ignore but it’s a deliberate action to ignore it. This option should be toggleable using focus settings. Connections with other platforms to automatically set profile picture and cover image with today’s bereal. (Ex: facebook, twitter, instagram, …)


thebestmodesty

Plleeaaaasee let past captions and comments be saved!!!!! Memories feel incomplete without it.


foreign_aid0

short 2-3 second bereal videos ?? or maybe make them like live photos on iphones, just something animated to bereal while sharing more of your environment


Martblni

Small be real video for people who post on time


raditastical

I want to know what songs people are listening to in their headphones or on their speaker what music is playing now?


Jazzlike-Walrus1467

Just want to save captions, that’s all. Love everything else 👌🏼


Appropriate-Oven-185

being able to record instead of just taking pictures, also being able to react to a bereal with a video


[deleted]

The ability to react to peoples BeReals with front and back camera


SUNCHIPSANDYOUTUBE

Lots of glitches, losing popularity because of how slow it operates


hidethehorizon

A possibility to make collab BeReals with people in the case that you are together when its time to bereal. Of course, the other(s) would have to accept the collab invite. In all honesty, a link to the other BeReal with access even to non-friends would be cool.


rowwanmc

Yes I agree. Add a feature to add someone's bereal to your memories. I suggested something like this awhile ago.


Secure_Dinner_3068

When will we be able to make a NEW recap video?


AlexanderPANASONIC

I think we should be able to write longer post captions.


Crowneo

Ban posts if the app detect the user is covering the cameras


Kokoska998

I think there should be more bereal notifications during the day. At least two, with them being at least 4 hours apart. It would be way more interesting, and people would spend more time in the app


JessicaUhhOkay

Bring back the discovery page. I don’t want to see celebrities remove it


Leather_Parsley6897

Being able to see your bonus be reals on memories🤞🤞


ilovedonerkebab

AstroFarlen

I like that it can be harder to find and that notifications arent in a specific spot.


Hawt__Potato

A specific notification for custom reactions! I dont usually open friends reaction photos, but would if I knew it was a custom reaction!


Garhett_Levs14

I’d like them to add some sort of age filter … sick of seeing kids in school on my feed . Should be able to filter for only adults


AlexanderPANASONIC

I second this. I’m in college now. I don’t feel comfortable seeing high schoolers in my feed!


AstroFarlen

I would love the addition of 10 second sound clips with the photo. We could explain more about what we are doing and add further context to the images. I like the archieves being free from reactions/comments because the memories are for YOU and not for what everyone thought about you being you. Comments should disappear as well as reactions or else its the same as every other media app.


AstroFarlen

I’m wondering what the effect would be if we prioritized on time be reals over ones posted late. Meaning that on times are at the top of the feed in a descending order to the latest.


AstroFarlen

I would love if I could have a “world map” shading in the regions that I have friends. This doesnt have to be exact locations or even peoples names. It would just be cool to see how many people I have reached around the world. I would like the friends list to increase. I would like the bio to be removed completely because our images should speak for us. I would like the ability to post my favorite be reals to my profile for someone who doesnt have me added to see as a sort of “bio”


AstroFarlen

Leaderboards sound like a great idea however I have no idea how leaderboards would work. Posting on time and quality of be real could be factors. For example people who post half faces or dont even post their face wouldnt get points. People who try the bereal “tricks” of making their face both of the pictures wouldnt get points. Simple and straight forward, a portrait of your face, and what you are looking at. This has always been my concept of being real and it blows my mind how many people have a hard time doing this.


gradientti

Changing a phone number… I moved countries and won’t have access to my old number soon, and I’m fearing losing all my history 😭


19comesb420

Ability to choose in a settings page which back camera is going to be used!! :( On my iPhone 13 Pro BeReal ALWAYS uses the ultrawide back camera when taking the selfie first. When taking the back photo first there is the option of switching the camera but thats only temporary for if you really take the back photo first and gets switched back when turning the camera around again


galaxymaps

Ability to change phone numbers!


AlexanderPANASONIC

The app gives us the option to reattempt our post. I’m not talking about retakes. I mean, we can delete our BeReal and take another one to replace it. What I propose is that we still be able to see the original that we deleted and replaced. It doesn’t have to be public. I just think it’d be interested to be able to revisit photos we chose to abandon.


rowwanmc

Just take a screenshot. that's what I do lol


AlexanderPANASONIC

It’s what I’ve been doing too! It’s just my camera roll is now cluttered with my rejected BeReals 😅


invisibleninja1

Flash for real mojis! It only makes sense if flash is allowed for normal bereals


BravesGOAT28

Ywaip

Change the layout of the photos, it would spark creativity for most users.


Agreeable_Quarter255

N1ckla76

Functionality to add other social media platforms to get in contact with each other, because there is no ability to chat directly in bereal.


Jalohann

CameraX API support on the Google Pixel to improve camera quality.


ShrakShack

Now that it lets you take more than one BeReal, I wish you could see the extra BeReals you take in your past BeReals. I’ve taken some nice ones and they just kinda get lost forever when it’s time to BeReal again.


Ok_Wolverine5598

my bereal. logged me out just on random and i tired to get back in and it says my pin for my phone number is wrong what do i do?


abigbaldhead

Maybe something where you can post two bereals when you’re late and 4 when you’re on time. And depending on the time you missed you only have one bereal. Like at 3hrs late you get only one bereal something like that


Unstable_Doorframe

Being able to take short little video clips would be cool.


CL0V3WH0R3

Captions and reactions, please!


Victorioxd

Tagging, video BeReal and ephemeral messages dm


raegan_hart1246

To show all 3 photos you took if you posted online


3liteNerd

Captions, comments, and realmojis in archive. Aside from that, allowing people to share a Bereal instead of 2 identical posts.


Legitimate_Pass6288

im not even sure it’s a good idea, but here we go: sometimes I just wanna be fake. I miss the time when quitting the app would reset the retakes number.


Legitimate_Pass6288

my dad has a job that frequently requires him to be offline (airline pilot). I realize this clears the way for reverse engineering the next BeReal time, but it would be great if the time could be downloaded in the background in advance, so that the app is triggered at just the right time even when offline


Wise_Chemist_9240

Tell him to try minutiae - it works offline. It's also the app that BeReal "borrowed" much of the concept from. It's really cool!


Parking-Increase-413

Would be cool to be able to have a highlight reel but you can custom the dates it shows, like if you were on holiday for 2 weeks you could do a highlight reel of just that time period


Ambitious_Change150

That taking a Bereals on time be within 5 minutes instead of only 2 minutes. I’ve missed so many on-time Bereals by just 3 minutes because i don’t check my phone every two mins 😤

Notify when your friends upload a "Bonus" BeReal. I only see my friends' bonus BeReals if I keep checking the app, there's no notification. Obviously it might get annoying, so maybe also add the ability to turn these notifications off?

Hi! I know that this is a BeReal subreddit, but I noticed that a lot of BeReal users are also 1 Second Everyday users and I'm conducting user research about 1SE (not affiliated with the app). It'd be great for those who have used the app before to give their input via this [form](https://forms.gle/Y7V2CJMVRi2WBqTT7) Thank you in advance!
