How Reco helps people find what their friends are into
Reco is a social discovery app that organizes recommendations from the people you already follow — the places they visit, the shows they watch, the small objects that end up on their shelves — into a single, searchable library you keep for yourself.
What the app does
Most recommendations disappear into feeds the moment they appear. A friend mentions a restaurant on a Tuesday; by Friday the post is three screens down. Reco catches the mention, groups it by place or title, and keeps it so you can find it again when you actually need it.
Scan
Point the app at any public post and it pulls out the thing being recommended — a cafe, a book, a film, a product — and files it under the right heading.
Save
One tap keeps a recommendation in your library with the original source attached, so you remember who told you about it.
Ask
RealTalk lets you post a short question to creators you follow. The community weighs in and the best answers rise to the top.
Who it's for
Anyone who's bookmarked a hundred posts and forgotten all of them. Reco turns a passive scroll into a small, personal archive you can actually use next time you're looking for a dinner spot or a weekend read.
Availability
The app is a free download on the App Store and runs on iOS 16.4 or later.
