Updates is a social platform built around the people you already know. Instead of chasing reach and virality, it focuses on real conversations with friends, family and the communities you actually belong to — with a feed you control, groups that stay on topic, and privacy settings that are readable rather than buried.
Follow the people and topics you care about, and mute the rest. No algorithm decides what you see before you do.
Join public communities or run a private group for family, a class, a club or a team — with moderation tools that scale.
Post text, photos, video, live streams, polls, events and marketplace listings, all from one composer.
Decide who sees each post, review your audience before publishing, and download or delete your data at any time.
Updates is a social networking platform for sharing posts, photos, videos and live streams with friends, family and community groups. It combines a personal feed with groups, events, a marketplace, courses and messaging.
Yes. Creating an account, posting, joining groups and messaging are free. Optional paid features such as promoted posts, virtual gifts and marketplace listings are clearly priced before you confirm.
Updates keeps the feed chronological and community-driven rather than purely algorithmic, puts groups and real conversations at the centre, and gives you granular control over who can see each post.
Updates runs in any modern web browser on desktop, tablet and mobile, and also offers dedicated Android and iOS apps so you can stay connected on the move.
