It’s out! Ello iOS mobile app by Ello.

_______

I have been beta testing – and I can assure you – it’s a beautiful app. The minimalist interface makes visuals pop and since large format, .gifs are welcomed, video + music embedding – you can see (and hear) a stream of non-end eye candy.

_______

Check the Discovery panel to extend your network, either by inviting others to join or scrolling the suggested users.

_______

_______

Notifications panel is where you can see who has interacted with your content. Hit a link or visual to comment.

_______

Some of the desktops functionalities will be ported soon – and it’s going to be even more awesome. If you are a creative or a geek – and would like to be part of an ad-free – no data collection platform (ever!!!)..

Ello is right for you!

There is no equivalent social platform for the conversations + interactions I have every day. People are nice. Really, really nice.

And brilliant as to depth of articles posted and comments passed.

And funny too.

Follow me @cgwarex. I also curate the @ellodesign community.
