Yoursphere is a Gen Z social media platform that connects tweens while letting them curate content to match their niche interests. In addition to its customized profile options, Yoursphere lets users join community discussion boards in order to earn credits and coupons that they can later redeem to purchase various merchandise.
This Gen Z social media platform also gives users access to trending topics as well as contests and giveaways. While more traditional platforms like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram offer profile customization features and curation options, Yoursphere goes one step further by categorizing each of its posts into fields like music, art, fashion and gaming. This interface lets tweens access specific information at a time rather than being exposed to an abundance of unorganized data.
