What is Spotlite?
Spotlite is an ad-free social app for sharing photos, videos and everyday moments with friends. Here is how it works and what to check before joining.
A social app built around people you know
Spotlite is a social app for young people to share photos and videos, follow people they choose and keep in touch with friends. Its feed is chronological and does not contain advertising. The app is available through the App Store and Google Play, subject to availability and account eligibility.
Start with something you already share: a football team, an interest in music, a creative project or a group of friends. A photo from practice or a video of something you made gives the conversation a starting point. You do not need to make your everyday life look like a performance.
What can you do in the app?
The current app-store listings describe photo and video posts, stories, direct messages and community participation. Your feed follows the people you choose, with posts shown in time order. Features and interaction permissions can depend on age, account status and location.
Before sharing, check the audience for your post and ask permission from people who appear in it. A shared interest is a good reason to connect; private details such as a home address or a school timetable do not need to be part of the post.
Is Spotlite free?
Downloading an app and using its service are different things. Spotlite requires a subscription for access. A trial may be available; check the current offer in your app store or in the app for your country, including the billing period, renewal and cancellation terms. Do not rely on an older review for current pricing.
What should young people and parents check?
Complete the age and approval steps shown during registration. Eligibility and guardian approval depend on the account and local requirements. An app-store age rating is not a universal statement of who can use the service.
Spotlite uses technology and human moderation, with reporting options for concerns. These measures do not guarantee that every interaction will be safe. Look at sharing and contact settings together, and agree on what to do if an interaction feels uncomfortable.
Where should you start?
Use the official download links on the app page. If you are introducing Spotlite to a family or friend group, read the parent guide together before joining. It brings together account, privacy, moderation and billing questions, with links to the current policies and support.
