Peach is a mobile application-based social network created by Dom Hofmann.[3] Peach is available as an Android and iOS application. It was introduced at the January 2016 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.[4]
Peach has been compared to Ello, Path, and App.net.[3][5][6][4]
Peach has "magic words," which were compared to Slack's similar slash shortcuts.[3][7] These allow the user to access commonly used functions such as typing the letter "g" to send a GIF or "c" to bring up a calendar, similar to a command line interface.[7]
Peach eschews the traditional news feed, hashtagging, and tagging common to social networks.[5] The editor-in-chief of The Next Web described Peach as a hybrid of Twitter and Slack, while noting that some users of the social network were creating fake celebrity accounts.[8] Bloomberg Business noted that when it was introduced, "[e]verything about Peach... seemed hip, down to the URL", but that by the end of the month it appeared that "interest in Peach softened".[4]
In late 2023, LenosTube (a service that sells YouTube channels, comments, and views) bought the peach.cool domain.[9] The website was updated to claim that Peach had been purchased by LenosTube,[10] and the domain set to redirect to their website.
As of 2025, the Android app is no longer listed on the Google Play Store.[11]
