Questions
FAQ
Is it a group chat?
No. Each circle has short lines, one picture a day, and plans you can start. It stays light on purpose.
Will it buzz my phone?
Never. Rolle doesn’t send notifications. When a circle starts something, it shows up as a Live Activity on your Lock Screen.
Who sees my pictures?
Only the people in that circle. Recaps stay inside the circle unless you share them yourself.
Do my friends need Plus?
No. Everyone sees everything for free. Plus only lets you share more pictures and keep more circles.
What is the best way to share photos with family?
A private family photo sharing app beats a group chat or a public album. Rolle is a Family circle: invite by link, share one picture a day and short lines, and only people in that circle can see them.
How is Rolle different from WhatsApp or iCloud?
WhatsApp piles up threads and pings you. iCloud shared albums are built for every photo. Rolle is one picture a day per circle, no push notifications, and status on your Lock Screen when you start a plan.
What is a circle?
A small group for people you actually see: Friends, Us, Home, Family. Not a feed, not a group chat. Lines, one picture a day, and plans you can start.
How do I invite someone?
Send them a link. They join that circle. No public profiles, no search.
What counts as a line?
A short note, up to 80 characters. What’s happening, where you are, a joke. Not a thread.
How many pictures can I share?
One picture a day in each circle on Free. Plus is five a day. Max is ten. Everyone in the circle can see every picture, even if they are on Free.
What is a recap?
When a plan ends, Rolle gathers the pictures, the line people loved, and who was there. Nights out, walks, dinners, and your circle’s week.
Does it work on Android?
Yes. Rolle is for iPhone and Android. Live Activities are on iPhone. Android gets a live status without push notifications.
How much does it cost?
Lines are always free. Free is 3 circles and 1 picture a day. Plus is $47.99 a year ($7.99 a month): 7 circles, 5 pictures a day, every recap kept. Max is $99 a year ($14.99 a month): 15 circles and 10 pictures a day.
How do I cancel Plus or Max?
On iPhone: Settings, your name, Subscriptions, Rolle. On Android: Google Play, Payments & subscriptions. The plan runs until the end of the period you paid for.
Where is my data?
Your circles, lines and pictures live with Rolle so the people in them can see them. We do not sell them, and we do not show them to anyone outside those circles.
How do I delete my account?
See Delete Account. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription. Cancel that in the App Store or Google Play first.
