Questions about LYPA with friends

How do I invite friends to LYPA?

Show the QR code in the app, send a link or find a friend by @username.

Can strangers see my photos?

No. Only people whose friend request you accepted can see them.

How does LypaNow work with friends?

Send a request in chat — your friend has 3 minutes to take a photo. The next request can be sent 6 hours later.

Why LYPA if we have a group chat?

Photos get lost among messages in a chat. LYPA gives them a separate feed, and every shot gets the signature look.

There is no public profile, ads or algorithms — just photos from your group.

Do I have to post photos every day?

No, there are no streaks. Shoot when there is a moment.

Can I send a photo to just one friend?

Yes, choose Personal and the right friend before sending.

Can we make a photo dump after a party?

Yes. Save photos to your gallery and post them on Instagram or TikTok tagged “shot on LYPA”.

My friends use Android and I use iPhone. Does it work?

Yes, LYPA works on both platforms.

Is LYPA free for the whole group?

Yes, for everyone and without ads. LYPA vs alternatives
