According to teen fashion website, teenvogue.com, Peach is a hybrid of Twitter and Snapchat. Like Snapchat, it’s only available as an app — there’s no web interface — and you are connected only to your friends, not your followers. And like Twitter, the app lets you write short posts too.
But Peach goes a step further, in that you can add GIFs (animated pictures), songs, books, and even movies to your messages. Instead of a wall, you have a whiteboard-like space where you can document nearly every aspect of your life, keeping your friends in the loop about what you are reading, watching, eating, and doing at all times.
What makes it all the more special is that your circle of friends are only those you know personally, and acts almost like a secret social club for your squad to communicate. You can add friends through phone numbers or usernames only, so it’s difficult to track down people you don’t actually know (hello, Facebook). It’s like an extension of your clique, and will feel just as well as if you were hanging out IRL (in real life).
So while it’s the Internet’s buzziest new app, no one’s really sure if it will catch fire like Snapchat. For now, however, you can be sure that you will be having fun with all the new, cute little bells and whistles.
