iMessage & Telegram
Folk works in both. here's how each one feels, and the small differences worth knowing.
Folk lives wherever you prefer to text. both get you the same Folk; a few small things just work a little differently. you can pick (or switch) your home base in your dashboard settings.
the quick comparison
- share location: one tap. Folk shows a button, you press it, done. great for planning dates and finding nearby spots.
- live location: you can share your location live so Folk can keep up as
you move. text
/geolocfor a quick walkthrough. - voice notes: send a voice message and Folk transcribes it. it can reply with a voice note too.
- photos & files: send attachments and Folk can read them.
- menu: tap the menu to see Folk's commands without typing.
- share location: no one-tap button here, so just tell Folk the neighborhood or paste an apple maps link to the place.
- voice notes: send an audio message and Folk handles it; it can reply with a native voice memo.
- photos & files: attach images or documents (up to ~10mb) and Folk reads them.
- feels native: Folk shows up like any other contact in messages, including reactions.
voice mode
on either platform, you can have Folk reply out loud. toggle it with:
/voice
handy when you're walking or driving and don't want to read.
language
Folk follows your lead on language and can usually detect it automatically. want
