WeLoop feed tabs

Different social moments require different feed behavior. Sometimes users want close relationships, sometimes broad discovery, and sometimes local relevance. WeLoop accounts for this by separating intent into dedicated feeds instead of forcing one stream to handle every use case.

The Friends feed is relationship-first. It prioritizes mutual-follow social interaction, making it useful for ongoing community and direct social continuity. For users who care about people they already know, this feed creates a more grounded experience than algorithm-heavy discovery streams.

The For You feed is designed for discovery and stories. It helps users surface new creators and content aligned with engagement behavior while keeping interaction tools familiar. This makes discovery feel expansive without removing the social mechanics users rely on for deeper engagement.

The Nearby feed adds location context, helping users find what is relevant around them. Local discovery matters because social content often has geographic significance, from events to communities to creators in the same area. Nearby gives users another practical way to turn content discovery into real-world relevance.

A common user challenge is deciding where to start. WeLoop solves this by making each tab’s role obvious: Friends for relationship continuity, For You for discovery expansion, and Nearby for context-driven relevance. Clear feed intent lowers decision fatigue and helps users engage faster.

For creators, these feed contexts also support content planning. Community updates may perform better in Friends, broad discovery content may perform better in For You, and location-sensitive posts may perform best in Nearby. This gives creators a more strategic distribution model without forcing multi-app publishing.

Together, these feeds allow users to choose context deliberately. WeLoop’s model reduces feed confusion and helps users get value faster because each tab has a clear purpose. This is one reason the platform can feel more usable than one-feed products that mix every intent into a single timeline.
