Crosstalk

apps like locket

Locket puts your friends' photos on your home screen. If you want to hear from them too, here are a few others worth trying.

why try something else

Locket's great for a quick look at your friends' day. But a photo can't tell you if they're joking or actually mad, and you can't always take one.

  1. Crosstalk

    Your space to chat with friends. Make a room that matches your vibe, then see and hear your friends in it. Type a message on the bus and they can hear it spoken in your voice. It's free on iPhone and Android.

  2. BeReal

    Once a day, everyone gets a prompt to share what they're doing, from both cameras at once. A good pick if you like the surprise.

  3. Snapchat

    Photos and videos that disappear, plus streaks. A good pick if your friends are already on it.

  4. Marco Polo

    Video messages your friends can watch whenever they're free. A good pick for longer catch-ups.

  5. WhatsApp voice notes

    Already on everyone's phone, so it's easy for a quick reply.

We make Crosstalk, so we obviously think it's the best. We're a bit biased, though.
