Your when can be anything from one hour to 30 days (I opted for five hours).

Geofilters don’t come for free.
I figured no trolling was worth more than thatnot even for my birthday.

Now comes the fun part: Kick back and enjoy.

Plus, the geofilter opportunities areendless.
Surprise your friend with a customized HBD filter for them instead of buying an ordinary gift.
Just keep it targeted, and you won’t break the bank.
