The social network focused on content sharing and online learning was founded by Abdoulaye Mbengue, a tech entrepreneur with decades of project management experience. The platform allows users to connect based on shared interests and access user-generated courses. 

TooShare, a social networking platform developed by a Senegalese startup, allows users to share a variety of content, including photos, videos, and documents, and to create or access online courses. The platform, launched in 2021 by Abdoulaye Mbengue, is available as an Android mobile application.

After downloading the app and creating an account, users provide information about their interests. This allows them to access a personalized news feed featuring content from users with similar interests. They can share text, photos, videos, or documents, and access Eduspace, an area dedicated to online classes.

Eduspace offers courses in various subjects, including coding, marketing, mathematics, and graphic design. In 2023, TooShare helped Senegalese students prepare for end-of-year exams amid school disruptions caused by political demonstrations.

Users can create quizzes, share lessons, form discussion groups, or start online classes by clicking the “Create” button. They can add content to enhance their online classrooms, potentially attracting other users interested in learning. Since its launch, TooShare’s Android app has been downloaded more than 10,000 times, according to Play Store statistics.
