4 Mobile Chat Apps to Send Messages Anonymously
The oversharing phenomenon is a real struggle. Opinions taken out of context get frowned upon, blown out of proportion, and sometimes wreak havoc in the sharer’s life. Sometimes though, we just want to get things off our chest under anonymity and find people who can help us deal or focus on your problem rather than the person behind it.
Here are a few apps to help you talk to people who won’t know it’s you on the other side or to help you find kindred spirits to share thoughts with. With these apps, you can find people who you don’t know and will probably never ever meet in real life, to talk to.
Everything blows over time anyway, but if you need someone to talk to right now, minus the possibility of getting your worries trampled over, here are the apps you should check out.
Psst
Psst is a chat platform where there is no chat history or chat ID. You can share political views, confessions, secrets, deal with grief and other less happy life experiences or just share corny jokes with other users.
