We’re on Android!

Today, we’re REALLY excited to bring you flayvr for Android.

We’re thrilled to offer a way for Android users to join their iOS friends on flayvr allowing you to create albums and share photos and videos with the world. We’ve been working hard to make this new Android app a top notch experience. When we created flayvr, our goal was to take the hassle out of swiping through the default media gallery to find a picture by allowing users to have all their photos and videos automatically organized and easily sharable with friends and family.

Now, more of your friends and family can share moments, through the unique flayvr experience. We’re so excited to welcome our Android users and we and look forward to hearing your feedback. Enjoy!

Introducing the new flayvr Timeline!

image

We are really excited to introduce an updated version of flayvr that has been in the flayvr oven for the last few weeks and is available on the appstore today!

Since launching just a few months ago we received tons of emails and requests from our users. You are helping us shape the product by giving us useful feedback, and we understand your frustration from the existing photo and video gallery.
You told us that you love the auto-arrangement of your photos and videos into flayvr albums but you asked for 2 main things:
- More control
- Seeing all your photos and videos
Well, today we’re introducing 2 main features.
Meet the flayvr timeline:
You can now view all your photos and videos that are not included in any flayvr albums in the flayvr timeline. 
Editing is much easier
We’ve added new editing features that allow you to add or remove photos and videos from your existing flayvr albums.
These extra features help you manage your albums more easily, making it easier to share the photos that are most important to you.
We’ll be explaining more on this over the next few weeks, and revealing more of our plans soon so stay tuned and always let us know what you think: support@flayvr.com

flayvr-ful thanks!

As we begin our thanksgiving celebrations we look back on the past months and can’t help but smile and feel really grateful for the many things we have to be thankful for!

We are thankful for the incredible love, friendship and happiness that surrounds us. Not many get to live in a bustling city that is full of life, energy and good vibes round the clock.

We are thankful for the people in our lives that make waking up every day so worth it and such an adventure.

We are so thankful to our friends and families for not giving up on us. Starting up a company from scratch is no easy task but we are so blessed to have such supportive people in our lives who have stood by us no matter what; criticised where necessary; understood when we’ve had to cancel coffees; hang-outs; dinners; schools plays…you get the picture.

Then of course, we are each, individually, thankful for each other here at flayvr. A small but dedicated and energetic team who give every minute of every day their all. Coming to work is a pleasure when you have such great people to spend your day with. We’re also all really good friends and that in itself is something to be thankful about.

And, never to forget, we are thankful for the memories that we get to play back, over and over again and enjoy with flayvr - here’s to a new year of so many more!

Would you like to share with us what you are thankful for this year? Email us your favorite flayvr to support@flayvr.com!

So what’s new starting today?

  • You can view full-screen photos by pinching to zoom in on a photo
  • Facebook sharing is now much simpler and more intuitive
  • Many tweaks and changes that you asked for - see if you can find them all :)

Here we go! thanks everyone :-)

We’re excited to share the news that flayvr is going live today!
Please take a minute to download the flayvr app from the iTunes AppStore

Over the past few months we have been working hard on seeing our vision come to life (pun intended). Our vision of changing the way we consume media by creating a new, exciting and fun type of visual media that’s fully cross-platform.

We believe that the web is flat. While our minds have grown to be able to grasp a few elements at a time, and pay attention to several different screens, the way we consume online media and content hasn’t changed in ages. We always end up with something that resembles a physical experience of turning pages.

Our goal, starting today, is to provide a new type of experience - one that is just like life. One that is automated, interactive, rich and allows a multi-focus view.

We’re starting with the flayvr app. flayvr automatically organizes your iPhone photos and videos, instantly showcasing life experiences as interactive fun collections called flayvrs. It’s fun, simple, and relies on sophisticated technology behind the scenes. No more endless swiping and flipping in camera rolls, it’s time to discover those hidden moments.

We want to take this opportunity to thank people that are helping us along the way. First of all, a big thank you to our unbelievably supporting investors: Moshe, Rafi, Yariv, Zohar, Esther, Eran, Eri, Gideon and Lior.
Second, to the wonderful ecosystem that surrounds us and, has helped and is helping so much with tips, mentoring, advice and connections: Zack, Michal, Orli, Hillel, Ouriel, Donna, Orit, Dolev, Gil, Peter, Uri and many others.
To our friends and families that are slowly getting used to seeing less of us - we’re sorry, you know it’s for a good cause :-)
But most important, to the great team we’ve got here: Adi, Shem, Ben and Oleg - you guys rock!

This is just the start…

Ron
