A feed that starts with friends.
Open the app and see photos from the people you actually know, without public follower games or algorithmic noise.
Real Friends
The private social network for real friends.
A photo feed for your people, plans that actually happen, shared memories, and recommendations from friends you trust.
Real Friends is operated by Lumaneta Inc., Los Angeles, CA.
Why it feels different
Sharing is better when it is personal.
Real Friends is a space for the people you text on a random Tuesday, call when something great happens, and trust with the unfiltered parts of your life.
Catch up through a feed of friend photos, turn calendar moments into lightweight plans, keep everybody's shots with the memory, and ask your people first when you need a recommendation.
Inside the app
A closer look at Real Friends.
Built for close groups, quick plans, and the moments you only want your people to see.
What it does
Built for your closest friends.
Every feature is meant to make small-group sharing feel easier, lighter, and more alive.
Your circle stays private.
Real Friends is designed around a smaller, intentional circle where posts and plans stay with accepted friends.
Start a plan in a few taps.
Turn something on your calendar into a plan, pick a quick starter, or type what you have in mind.
Keep plans and RSVPs together.
See what is coming up, who is in, and the details everyone needs without digging through a group chat.
Albums stay with the plan.
When the park morning, dinner, or craft night happens, the photos live with that memory instead of getting lost in a thread.
Recommendations come from people you trust.
Need a babysitter, swim teacher, dentist, or good spot nearby? Ask your circle first and save the people your friends vouch for.
Private by design
The app should feel like the front porch.
Real Friends is built around trust first: no public audience, no pressure to perform, and no endless discovery feed. The point is to keep up with your people and make it easier to spend time together.
Privacy
A space you can trust.
You choose who belongs in your circle, and everything you share is built around that choice.
Posts are visible only to accepted friends.
Your data is not sold to advertisers or brokers.
There are no public profiles, follower counts, or discovery feeds.
You can invite, remove, block, and report people when you need to.
Early reactions
Feels more like the group chat.
The best part is opening a feed where every post is from someone I actually know.
Plans make it way easier to turn the group chat into an actual Saturday.
It feels like the group chat, photo dump, and friend recommendations finally live in the same place.
