Welcome Center

Hello and welcome to FriendBurst! We hope you will enjoy it here. Finding your way around a new place can be a bit overwhelming. Just take it step by step. We are here to help.

FriendBurst is "member driven": a place where family and friends can really connect, and new friends can be made.

Five steps to get started

  1. Add a profile picture: and use it as your picture.
  2. Tell people about you: fill in About Me and Interests on Edit Profile.
  3. Make your profile yours: pick a design or change the colours.
  4. Find friends: browse members, search by name at the top, and choose Add to Friends on a profile.
  5. Choose your privacy: decide who sees each part of your profile on Privacy Settings.

New accounts

New accounts start with a short review period: your first comments wait for a quick check by our team, and until then you can accept friend requests but not send them, and bulletins and status updates wait too. It ends by itself after your first 3 comments are approved.
