What is Cara App? How to Download and Use it (Easy Guide)

Cara is a social networking application made for creatives, allowing artists to share their work, memes, or personal thoughts in text form. It looks similar to well-known platforms like X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram and has both a mobile app and browser access.

With the widespread use of generative AI, Cara is a place that filters out generative AI images so that people who want to find authentic creatives and artwork can do so easily. The app does not agree with generative AI tools in their current unethical form, and it also does not host AI-generated portfolios unless the rampant ethical and data privacy issues around datasets are resolved via regulation.

There are two types of accounts on Cara, Portfolio and community:

	Portfolio	Community
Portfolio Display	✓	✓
Direct Message	✓	✓
Invite a Friend	✓

How To Use Cara App?

You can use Cara as a portfolio, a social media account, or a mix of both. There are 2 tabs on your user profile:

• Timeline: everything you post goes on your timeline. This includes regular posts, reposts, and quote posts.
• Portfolio: this tab is akin to a highlights folder. When making a post, you can choose the “Add to Portfolio” option and select what posts to show in this section. If you uncheck it, the post will be hidden from your portfolio page, but remain on your Timeline and shown to your followers.

“Add to Portfolio” lets you choose if a post should be seen in your profile Portfolio tab.

You can change the setting “Add to Portfolio” during the upload or edit post.

You can choose to showcase all your posts in your portfolio, or be selective and highlight only a few. It’s entirely up to you.

You can also select your Open to Work availability with the options: Full-Time, Part-Time, Contract/Freelance, and internships.

Cara believes that the future of creative industries will involve heavy use of AI, and it’s paramount that our governments work to regulate the rampant unethical data usage as well as provide safety nets for the impact AI will have on our society.

Our ability to produce and appreciate art will be profoundly altered if generative AI is widely used in production across all industries. 

Hence, Cara is a place to stay up-to-date on technology and industry developments. It works to support human creatives and be a place where artists can find discussions, education, and support as we navigate this incoming shift together.
