Loëly

With Loëly, step into a complete poetic space.
READ
Access a library of classics, from 14th-century sonnets to the early 20th century. Read, reread, or discover the great names of international poetry.
Explore poems by other users: everyday, metaphysical, pop, descriptive, rhymed, melancholic, or joyful. Support them, comment on them, save them to your readlists.
Readlists are like playlists for poems. Choose a theme, gather the texts that speak to you, share your selections with other users.
Download your favorite poems to read offline, anywhere, anytime — on the subway, while traveling, or simply to give yourself a moment without a connection.
Through our blog articles, rediscover forgotten poets, poetic techniques from other cultures, or the daily lives of users deeply engaged in their poetic work.
WRITE
Write your poems in simple mode, like jotting a line in a notebook, or in canvas mode, where text is placed freely on the page — for those who love composing form as much as words.
Keep your texts as drafts for as long as you need. Come back to them, rework them, publish them when they're ready.
Choose what you do with them: publish to the entire app for other users to discover, or keep them in a private group shared with people close to you.
SHARE
Create private groups to share your poems with friends, writing circles, and literary friendships.
Suggest other users to your followers, and discover in turn who the people you follow recommend — a chain of transmission, rather than an algorithm.
Show what moves through you: your inspirations on your profile, your readlists offered to others' eyes, the poems that accompany you.
Share your poetic events — readings, open mics, gatherings — to make them known to the Loëly community.
RESPECT
Take control of your feed. Choose chronological, random, or exploratory mode — set for yourself how much discovery you want to let in. You're the one holding the algorithm.
No poem is promoted because it has many likes or comments. No popularity contest, no hidden ranking. What you read comes from your choices, and from the sincere recommendations of other users.
Comments require mutual following and a 24-hour delay before publication, so that words take the time they deserve — and to protect you from impulsive reactions and unnecessary conflict.
Hide your likes, your followers, your following if you prefer to keep them to yourself. And make the opposite choice for others: not seeing their likes, not showing their counts. Everyone sets their own sliders, everyone finds their own right measure.
