Considering just how far-reaching currently popular social media platforms are, it’s hard to avoid the content moderation and serving algorithms that have messed up our feeds from the creators we’d like to see to the creators that the app thinks we should see.

BeReal is an app to counter this new practice by pinging its users to take a photo with their back and front camera simultaneously and posting it at a random time asked by the app. This is a rather fresh way of keeping in touch with your friends and knowing what’s going on in their lives.

However, if you gave BeReal a try and don’t think it’s for you, we’ll be discussing how you can delete your BeReal account in this article.
