Social networking apps, other than the most popular ones, always have to take on the challenge of bringing something new to the table. Otherwise, how can they expect to compete with the latter? As much as possible, this innovation or unique perk should benefit users in general. ConnectSocial chooses to capitalize on security, as based on recent news, this aspect is what a lot of the large social networks tend to struggle with.

Indeed, that’s the primary selling point of the app. It targets users who are very conscious of their privacy when conducting their social networking. ConnectSocial is able to deliver this to them with their features that include a self-moderating community and a more secure network in general.

Just like any social media app, you have to sign up and build your social network and profile. There’s very little that the average social media user would be unfamiliar with when it comes to the general usage of the app. There are the familiar icons of adding friends, messaging, and notification on the main page. The search bar makes it easy for you to search for people and posts as well.

The app has a nice way of letting users give their own personal touches to the posts that they share. You can categorize them liberally, whether they’re videos, pictures, web pages or books. ConnectSocial also gives you the chance to create your own groups and like and share posts, similar to Facebook.

Indeed, ConnectSocial really makes sure that it won’t take long for you to adapt to their network by giving you the tools that you are already attuned with. The only difference is that they really prioritize the security of the things you share. It also gives you plenty of freedom to filter content that you are not too keen on viewing as it lets you hide posts and prevent other users from commenting in your feed.

As said above, you have to really give ConnectSocial a try if you want a premium social network that is proven to be more secure than others out there. That is ultimately its defining aspect. In the end, it’s a characteristic that should never be overlooked, considering the apparent consequences of breaches in privacy that have been proven to occur in social media platforms from time to time.

While the app is available to download for free, its full features can be utilized if you avail the 7 day free trail or by taking advantages of its annual subscription that costs $7.99, as of this writing. For its myriad benefits to your online security as far your social media activities are concerned, this is certainly well-worth it.
