I was looking for this! I’ve been on Marco Polo for a few years and have found a few things: It’s so fun for friends who live in or travel to far-flung places. I’ve watched Polos of friends drifting down a river in Ireland, or showing us a view of Mt. Fuji, or on an incredible hike in Arkansas. Big generality, but true in my experience: men don’t really get it. The people I know who love it and keep in touch on it all identify as female. It’s the closest async thing I’ve found to feeling like a chat with a friend. Even though it’s one-at-a-time!

My friends have been on a Marco Polo since pre-pandemic. It’s a place we can dump a story we just have to tell or chit chat back and forth while doing chores.

“If you get the right people on board it is truly a nourishing way to connect. It doesn’t make sense but this app is the best connector of long distance friendships. It’s a way to keep a conversation going that you can tend to at your own pace and I use it every single day to keep in touch with my nearest (emotionally) and dearest, yet farthest away core group of childhood friends.”

“I wouldn’t be caught up with my friends without this app. It’s like talking on FaceTime but you just record yourself talking and send it along, and whenever they are free to chat back they respond with their own video. Takes the burden off of scheduling time for catch-up calls and everything is kept in a log so you can go back and rewatch The Marco Polo app is a video-messaging platform that funct”

“I don't download a lot of apps. I will very much resist until I see the purpose. My sister invited me to Marco Polo many times & I resisted, but she kept sharing how she was using it & how much she loved it, so I finally gave it a go. Now I LOVE it. I only use it with my sisters & my mom, with individual chats & one with all four of us. It feels like being younger again, just hanging around the ho”
