"A SAFE SOCIAL NETWORK FOR WOMEN"
As a woman, this is the 1st ever social media app, where I felt super safe than any other apps, in sharing my family & kids photos. I didn't feel like, I am in the middle of strangers. Instead, I was connected with the safe community of positive people and it was a warm feeling. So happy to connect with this great privacy & culture-filled social network.

"CREATED MY MUSIC BAND FROM PEPUL"
I am a piano player since my early college days. For artists like me, little appreciation meant a lot that helps us to grow more in our passion. Till before joining Pepul, I have never witnessed those appreciations and celebrations on any other social media. I just expressed my talent here with the positive community and believe it or not, I got connected with the fellow nearby musicians and created our own band. It's a very new surprising experience that this social network helped a lot to propel my passion in reality.
