sense 3 · the verb
How it works
You open the Instavade hub and type the Instagram username you keep thinking about. It gathers what that profile's public face leaves out: messages, visitors, screenshots, story replays and the followers who left. Then it puts all of it on one screen, ready to read.
Usage note: people often say they wish they had not looked. Think before you type.
