Locket Widget is a photo-sharing app for your closest friends, and thankfully, adding new friends in the app is incredibly simple. Locket is yet another way to connect with friends, but how users interact is pretty unique. Rather than posting status updates or memes for millions of people to see, Locket users send photos back and forth to each other's home screens. Download the Locket app, add the widget to your iPhone home screen, and the widget is updated every time friends share photos with you. It's fun, intimate, and a nice change of pace from other photo-sharing apps.

Thanks to the simple nature of Locket Widget, adding friends is pretty simple. After downloading the app, Locket asks users for a few pieces of information — including their phone number, first name, and last name. After entering these things, Locket then prompts users to invite friends with a text message. Since this is part of the sign-up process, it's pretty much impossible to miss it. Enter some basic info, invite a few friends, and you'll be ready to use Locket within a couple of minutes.

What To Do If You Can't Add Locket Friends

All of that said, there are a few other things to remember for adding friends to Locket. For example, what should users do if they want to add friends after the initial setup process? Once again, the steps are really simple. Open the Locket app and tap 'Add a friend' to instantly add someone from your contacts list. Once here, tap the search bar that says 'Add someone new' and search for a specific contact you want to invite or scroll down to view a list of your contacts.

If you want to add friends from other apps like Instagram, Snapchat, Messages, and more, you can go to 'Find friends from other apps,' tap on an app, select a friend from the list, and send them an invite. This is also the same page where Locket users can remove existing friends. Find the friend you want to remove, tap the 'X' icon next to them, and that's it.

If Locket's initial setup worked correctly, the app should have access to someone's contacts list. If the Friends page isn't showing any contacts, however, it could be due to missing permissions. Open the iPhone's Settings app, scroll down, tap 'Locket,' and tap the toggle next to 'Contacts' so Locket has access to it. Once enabled, you should be able to invite friends without a hitch. Remember these tips, and managing your Locket Widget friends will be a piece of cake.

How Many Friends Can You Add On Locket?

Unlike other social media apps that let you add as many friends as you want, Locket is built only for your closest friends. As a result, the app lets you add a maximum of 20 friends. While this might seem limiting, the personal nature of Locket means that you should only pick the people you really want to connect with.

If a person is already on Locket, you can add them as a friend directly. Those who aren't on Locket but in your contacts can also be invited, but they'll need to download the app and create an account before you can start exchanging photos. When you invite friends who aren't on Locket yet, the invite will take the form of a text message with a link. The other person can tap on the link to download the app and sign up for Locket.
