At BeReal we show ourselves as we are. The posts capture both our face and the location where we are. Therefore, knowing how to configure who can see my posts on BeReal is vital so that only those we want to see our BeReals. This way we will make sure that a stranger, or certain contact, never finds our publications.
After clicking on "PUBLICATE A BEREAL" we will take a double photo and click on the blue arrow to publish our post.In "Send to..." we will choose whether to show our BeReal to our friends or to any user, selecting "Only my friends" or "Everyone (Discovery)" respectively . With the first option, the photo will appear in the “My Friends” feed of our added friends, while with the second, it will also appear in “Discovery”. In “Other Options” we will choose if our location is shared or if the BeReal are automatically saved on our device.
Discovery is the global feed where posts from unknown users appear. However, we can't see Discovery posts if we haven't posted our daily BeReal We don't need our BeReal to be set to "Everyone (Discovery)", It also works if it's only visible to friends. In any case, it is possible to modify who can see it after publishing it, just click on the 3 dots to the right of the post to change it.You can also delete it, but only once a day, if you delete a BeReal and upload another one, you won't be able to delete the new one. This is all true for the Android and iPhone versions.
How to add friends to BeReal
After knowing how to configure who can see my posts in BeReal, we must learn how to add friends to BeReal In the upper left corner of the app we see an icon of a person next to the "+" symbol. If we press it, we will arrive at the “Friends” menu, divided into 2 parts: “Add Friends” and “My Friends”. To add friends to BeReal we are interested in the first one, "Add friends". In it we can search for a user by her name in the upper search bar. Another option is to search our contact list for those who are registered, if we have allowed the app to know our contacts.
BeReal works through friend requests.You add friends by sending them a friend request by clicking on the blue button that says Add Unlike Instagram, in BeReal you don't follow other users, but you approve or reject them Facebook-style requests. Your friends can see your content and you can see the content of your friends, it is bidirectional and you are at the same level. Remember that you can also receive requests.
How to block someone on BeReal
If we want to share our content with the whole world but it never reaches a certain person, it is possible to block them. How to block someone in BeReal?By visiting your profile and clicking on the three dots in the upper right corner. If we do, 4 options will appear, but we only have to look at "Block". After a window in which we confirm the decision, this user will never be able to see your content, profile or send you a friend request.
On the other hand, if we only share BeReal with our friends, anyone who is not a friend will not be able to access our content So Therefore, even if another user is not blocked, they will not be able to see our post. Of course, if we block him, he will not be able to overwhelm us with friend requests. Finally, we can report users by selecting "Report" in the 4 points in the upper right corner of the profile, above the block option.
