Sometimes a different kind of connection starts simply by being in the same place at the same time.
Most social platforms begin with people you already know, follow or choose to connect with.
Spime begins somewhere else.
Where are you? What's happening there? And who else is there with you?
That difference opens up some interesting possibilities—from bringing everyone's photos from a wedding together automatically to taking a shared experience along on a road trip.
Here are seven ways Spime changes what you can do with the moments happening around you.
The place creates the connection. The moment gives it meaning.
1. Capture an Event Through Everyone's Eyes
You're at a wedding, party, concert or community event.
Dozens—or perhaps thousands—of people may be experiencing the same moment, but everyone sees something different.
With Spime, people who are there can capture photos and videos into the same shared experience as the event unfolds.
The couple gets moments from throughout their wedding. Friends at a party see photos they didn't take themselves. People at a concert experience perspectives from elsewhere in the venue.
One event. Many perspectives. One shared Spime.
2. Share a Moment Without Becoming “Friends”
Sharing an experience with someone doesn't necessarily mean you want to establish a permanent social connection with them.
At a conference, concert, neighbourhood event or other gathering, you may have something in common simply because you're both there.
Spime doesn't require you to exchange personal contact information or become social-media friends before you can participate in the same experience.
When the moment ends, the connection can end with it.
Sometimes sharing the moment is enough.
3. Stop Chasing Everyone for Their Vacation Photos
Anyone who has travelled with a group knows what happens afterward.
One person has the great dinner photos. Someone else captured the beach. Another person has the group shots. Everyone promises to send everything later.
With Spime, the sharing happens during the trip.
Photos and videos captured by participating group members come together inside the same Spime from the beginning.
Instead of assembling the vacation afterward, you're building the shared memory while you're living it.
4. Give a Crowd a Shared Place to Connect
Spime isn't only about photos and videos.
Enable Chat, and the people within your Spime can communicate around the experience they're sharing.
For a performer, DJ or event organizer, that could mean hearing from the people actually there.
For a gathering, it can provide a conversation connected specifically to that place and moment.
And unlike a permanent online community, the conversation exists around the experience itself.
The people are already there. Spime gives the moment a digital place to come together.
5. Take the Spime With You
Not every experience stays in one place.
A road trip moves. A hike moves. A tour moves. A vacation may take you through dozens of locations.
Make your Spime Dynamic, and it can move with you.
People travelling together can continue contributing as the journey unfolds, while photos retain the location context of where they were captured.
Weeks or months later, you're not simply looking at a collection of vacation photos—you can see where individual moments happened.
6. Turn Moments Into Archives
Spimes are built around time, so active Spimes eventually end.
The memories don't have to.
Spimes you've created or followed can move into your Archives, where you can return to their photos, videos and shared experience later.
A wedding Spime becomes a record of the day.
A vacation Spime becomes a record of the journey.
A spontaneous event becomes something you can revisit long after Now has become Past.
The moment may be temporary. The memory doesn't have to be.
7. Keep the Cloud Collection Without Keeping Everything on Your Phone
A shared event can produce hundreds of photos and videos—and you probably don't need every one of them taking up space on your device.
Content captured in Spime is stored in the cloud, so you can explore the shared collection without downloading everything to your phone.
See something you want to keep locally?
Download the photos and videos that matter to you.
The rest can remain part of the Spime without filling your device.
And That's Only Part of Spime
These seven examples all come from the same underlying idea:
Space and Time matter.
Where you are determines what you can discover. Being there determines how you can participate. And the moments captured there retain context that conventional social sharing often loses.
Spime isn't trying to replace every way you already connect online.
It adds something different:
a digital layer built around the places, people and moments actually happening around you.
Here. Now. Together.
