Do you use Marco Polo?

[Jalapeñomel]

Not the swimming game, but the app with video chat.

Yes with my extended family. Also my BFF so our kids (who are BFFs) can send videos to each other. They're 5 and it's adorable.

I was just convinced to download and start using it. It is kind of fun. I do not use Snapchat.

I HATE Snapchat. Hate it…it operates under the guise that things disappear and people take that to record horrid and inappropriate things.

[Dznyprnces]

Yes. My sister and I use it all the time.

My friends and I will use it sporadically. We go through periods where we use it a lot and then times when we don’t at all.

A couple of friends and I have used it off and on for the last few years. It's a nice alternative to texting.

We used it a lot when I was deployed. It was super-convenient because of the time difference (messages sent while I was asleep wouldn’t wake me up like a text) and very easy for our 6-7 year old to record by himself. We didn’t use the group function but I can see how that would be awesome.

Yes! My BFF got me into Marco Polo shortly after Covid began (so late March 2020). She lives a couple hours from me so we don't get to see each other much, but we use MP almost every day to chat or every other day. I also use it with my other 2 best friends, although we don't talk with the same frequency but it's still nice to keep in touch.

I used it with my girlfriends when we were at home in the early days of Covid to give little snippets of our lives at home, the good, bad, and ugly.

Is this similar to whatsapp or line? I use both of those.

And of course I thought of the pool game first

[underwaterrhymes]

I use Marco Polo with one friend. I really like it.

I also use WhatsApp with my sister and in-laws, text messaging with some friends, and Facebook Messenger with still others.


I pretty much use whatever the person I’m interacting with prefers. But if someone suggested Snapchat, I’d steer them in another direction lol.

I used to use it a lot like 4-5 years ago maybe? but haven't used it except for 1 time with 1 friend in about a year or more..
