Why should you use Vero?

It is smarter social app. According to Vero website,” Vero is a social network for anyone who loves anything enough to share it – and wants control over who they share it with. Just like we do in real life.”

You can share what you want. You can share movies, TV, music, books, places, photos, links – these are the things you really connect over, so Vero made them easier to share, enjoy and discover. In short, it has smarter sharing option as compared to Instagram.

The app has recommended and doesn’t option. Whether you tell the world, a select few or file away for future reference, the opinions of you and your friends are always going to beat any algorithm. You can easily share on Facebook and Twitter from Vero. Also, you can introduce your friends to your favorite accounts.

The app has the smarter connection, everything’s not for everyone, so Vero made picking your audience completely intuitive for each post. It is totally different as compared to Instagram sharing option.

The app has collection option along with smart search option. Every post from you and your friends goes straight to your Collections – your own personal library of recommendations and passions.

You have an option of creating and choose smart, unique and original content with smart engaging. Every post is a little world of its own. Tap to buy stuff, play music tracks, watch trailers and go deeper.

The main advantage of this app is it’s smarter and ad-free feed. It means just the posts you want to see. That also means there’s no algorithms and no data mining. Ever. Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter have a lot of ads in the feed.

How to find friends and connect with them on Vero

You need some friends on Vero to share your posts. Don’t be a worry if you don’t have friends because app automatically suggests your friends by using contacts list and finding people that you might know.

You can add those people to your friend list. The app will ask you add those people to your acquaintance or a close friend list (It sounds like Google Plus connections). It means you can arrange your friends in the different group as per your choice.

It is not possible to become friend with everybody, so the app has follow someone option. It means you can follow people which are famous or celebrity. Once you followed someone you will stay up to date with all of their posts.

Thus you can find friends and connect with them on Vero. Once that’s all done you’ll start getting notifications when someone you might know signs up.

How to see posts of your friends on Vero?

Like other app Vero is also based on central feed, means you can see everything in your feed which your friends posts. Like Instagram, Vero feed is purely chronological, you’ll be able to see everything if you scroll down sufficiently far.

The feed is the main thing you’ll see when you open the application however you can likewise get to it by tapping the “VERO” logo in the upper left corner – that’ll take you back home and you can see everything that everybody is doing.

On the posts themselves, you can connect in all the ways you’d anticipate. Take a look at the base of the post for the little three dabs to comment, or push on the heart to “like” it. Thus you can see posts of friends and react to it.

How to post your own content on Vero

As I mentioned earlier Vero is the powerful alternative to Instagram, but it is totally different from Instagram. You can share a different kind of media on the app.

To post your content on Vero app, click on the large “+” that’s at the bottom of the screen whenever you’re looking at the feed. It will bring you to different options not only “camera”, which allows you take pictures or upload old ones or share videos, but also  “link”, ”music“, ”movie”, “book” or place, all of which will be attached to the post when you share it. Thus you can share your own content on Vero.
