Nextdoor App for iPhone Review
Facebook is the most popular social network out there. But it does not necessarily suit the needs of all people. Some want it more private and Facebook’s ever changing private policies and default settings does not help matters either. For that reason, hence more people are branching out to alternate options, and one such player on the block is Nextdoor app for iPhone. You can get the app for free.
Nextdoor App Features

It supports about 12,000 communities and the list is growing. So, when you attempt to sign up, and receive a message that your address is unrecognized instead, assume that they don’t have data on your area.
