KakaoStory

KakaoStory is a social media app launched by South Korea's Kakao company. It is similar to Facebook and Instagram, where users can share photos, videos, dynamics and personal stories. It allows users to record and share their daily lives through text, pictures, videos, etc., and stay in touch with friends and family.

To use KakaoStory, open the app, access your "Feed" to see stories from friends you follow, upload your own photos or videos by using the camera function, choose who can see your stories by selecting privacy settings (like "Close Friends" or "Only Me"), and explore trending content through the "Discover" tab; essentially, it functions like other social media story features where you share quick updates with your network, but primarily within the KakaoTalk ecosystem.
