How to use the app

The app allow users to create locks (i.e. relationship, connection) with others. It is 1-1 relationship. A lock is a timeline between 2 people (often lovers/couple). Then each can post memories onto it (text status, photo, blog).

There are 3 kinds of locks:

• regular lock: lock between 2 accounts on Lovelock. Your partner can accept or deny your lock request. Only after he/she accepted, you both can post memories on it.
• crush lock: lock between yourself and a crush (that is, someone who does not have account or you don't want to connect to his/her real account on lovelock; like your idol, imaginary lover, etc.)
• journal: if you create a lock to yourself, it becomes a journal

Both locks and memories can be public or private. Users can create groups like close friends or family and share their locks/memories to only members of the chosen group. Users can organize memories into collections.
