I tried the Beme beta. It’s not as simple as “pressing the phone to your chest,” since my chest, like that of many women, is not flat. There’s nothing stable to hold the phone against it at the correct height, allowing me to “capture this moment without interrupting it and making it fake,” as Casey Neistat put it. My stomach is too low; my collarbone and shoulders are too high, and angled upward. Beme, like so many other products of tech startups, is just another thing that women have to put more thought into using than the men it was designed by, if they decide to continue using it at all.
