You Should Archive Your BeReals (here's how)

If you were like me in the early 2020s, you were probably documenting a decent chunk of your life on BeReal. And if you're still like me now, you probably deleted the app and forgot about it, leaving all of those photos on some app you don't use anymore. But you can get them out and migrate them all to your personal photo library.
