Showtime is our community voting feature where you submit your outfit and the community votes on it. It's a fun, gamified way to get feedback on your style and see what's trending in the community.
Go to the Showtime tab and tap "Enter Showtime." Upload a photo of your outfit, add a caption if you'd like, and submit before the timer runs out. Your outfit will be paired against others for community voting.
During a Showtime round, you'll see two outfits side by side. Tap the one you prefer to cast your vote. All votes are anonymous and final — you can't change a vote once it's cast.
Voting is anonymous to keep things fair and fun. You can see your total vote count and win/loss record, but individual voter identities are not revealed.
Showtime timers are binding. If you don't submit before the entry period ends, you'll need to wait for the next round. Voting periods also have set timers — make sure to cast your votes before time runs out.

AI sorting isn't always perfect — if an item lands in the wrong category, tap the ⋮ menu on the card or tap the item to open Item Detail where you can fix the category.
Our AI does its best to sort items, but it isn't perfect — certain items (like jumpsuits, crop tops, or accessories) can sometimes be miscategorized. Simply tap the item to open Item Detail, then use the Category picker to reassign it to Tops, Bottoms, or Shoes.
When you upload a clothing photo, our AI-powered background removal (powered by Remove.bg) automatically isolates the item from the background, giving you a clean, professional-looking image for your closet.
Use the filter options to narrow items by color, brand, or season. You can also sort your closet five different ways to find exactly what you're looking for.

Tap the ⋮ menu on the item card and select Delete, or open the item's detail screen and tap Delete there. Only the Closet (Mine) screen permanently deletes items — deselecting in the Builder does not delete anything.

The Compete lobby is the waiting area where your outfit is displayed while you wait for challengers. Other users browsing the Compete tab can see your lobby and jump in. Use the "Following" filter to see only lobbies from people you follow.
The winner is determined by community votes. If all other participants leave the lobby before it expires, the remaining participant wins by default.

Closet Time charges an 8% service fee on all completed marketplace sales. This fee is automatically deducted from the sale amount before the remaining funds are transferred to your account via Stripe.
Payments are processed through Stripe. You'll need to set up a Stripe Connect account (we'll guide you through it). Once a sale is completed, funds are transferred to your Stripe account, typically within 2-5 business days.
If you have an issue with an order (wrong item, item not received, etc.), first try to resolve it directly with the other party through in-app messaging. If you can't reach a resolution, contact our support team at support@closettime.app for assistance.
Return and cancellation policies are set by individual sellers. Check the listing details before purchasing. If a seller doesn't respond to a return request or if there's a dispute, contact our support team for help.
Every day, Closet Time posts a new fashion prompt — like "Monochrome Monday" or "Thrift flip: style a secondhand find." You post a photo of your outfit take on the prompt, vote on other people's entries, and the entry with the most votes wins at the end of the day. Participate every day to build your streak!
Sponsored Showtimes are paid ad placements from Verified Business accounts. They appear in the Shop tab on the feed and are labeled "Sponsored" so you can tell them apart from regular Showtimes. Businesses can choose from 3 tiers: Basic ($25/day), Premium ($75/day), and Featured ($200/day) for different levels of visibility.
Visit our For Business page and subscribe for $9.99/month via Stripe. Once your subscription is active, your account is automatically verified — no manual approval needed. Verified businesses get a badge on their profile and can create Sponsored Showtimes using the "Promote Your Brand" option in the Showtime creator.
