Love it!
I love this app very much, but one thing needs to change from the beginning. The thing is when we posted the pictures on moments or discover but forgot to add some pictures, want to replace the picture that is already posted, etc.... is should have “Edit” with “Like, Comment” next to it. So that I don’t have to delete the whole thing to repost it. What happen if my friends liked my post already when I noticed that I forgot to post or add some pictures in discover and just hit delete just to repost it. Is no use! So please add “Edit” when post is already post with “Like and Comment”! Thanks!!

Love this app!!
I am a American guy who travels a lot throughout Asia and this is mostly used by the Asian community so it makes it very easy to connect with new friends! It’s super easy to use and it never has any issues in the 10 years that I’ve been using it. TO THE DEVELOPERS!! I do have a suggestion for you! How about some page themes so people can change the color and customize the look of their this app? Of course you charge money for this but I think it will increase overall revenue and give people a more personalized feel for the app which, will in turn, boost the app usage! Just a thought :)

Can we pin the content in one group?
this app has been nice and easy to use for the past few years. I just wish there could be some parity functionality as slack to pin some content in one channel/group instead of saving them all in one favorite place and soon be buried by the next content. Also as there r more and more groups available, they always pop up to the top. If we can fold them into one bigger group like nested group function, it would help a lot for the user’s day to day experience. Hope some product manager from this app could consider this.
