What a joke. I don’t know if it runs or not. I can’t afford to run it. ### 2/5 — Ad pops up *2025-05-21, version 11.0.4* Ad pops up to subscribe everytime you use the app. ### 3/5 — NOT free. *2025-04-29, version 11.0.4* I thought this was supposed to be free for the basic app, but when I tried logging in for the first time, it’s free for ONE week and then it is $4.99 / week. I’m sure it’s a great app, but I don’t know that I want to pay $20 a month for it. ### 1/5 — Useless *2024-11-23, version 11.0.2* Won’t allow me to use my phone number. Says it’s an invalid number and it absolutely isn’t. Just an ordinary US based iPhone number, but nope. ### 1/5 — Difficult to use & no support *2024-11-01, version 11.0.1* No trust. Limited FAQ. Reached out to support but they didn’t get back. I don’t trust it. ### 2/5 — Good App No Support *2024-10-24, version 11.0.1* App works well as intended. Have had issues getting into my account after switching phones and Support has ignored me. ### 3/5 — What do I think of this app? *2024-09-07, version 10.0.9* I like it so far ### 4/5 — Badge number not showing *2024-09-04, version 10.0.9* Text message received but badge numbers wont show sometimes. I have been using it for awhile. Please fix soon! ### 3/5 — ? Both people must have the app installed *2024-08-21, version 10.0.9* Nowhere I could find it clearly mentioned that both people need to have the app installed. In the full app, that is kinda clear, but this iMessage app does not make that clear. @Devs - please update the about text to make it clear both parties must have app installed. ### 3/5 — Stopped working on my mac. No support *2024-08-07, version 10.0.9* The title says it all. ### 1/5 — Not trustworthy *2024-07-22* Downloaded the app, two seconds in they’re asking to track my iPhone. Why would an app surrounding privacy ask for my private data? ### 3/5 — Glitches! *2024-06-16, version 10.0.6* Way too many glitches! I don’t what’s about it but the app is not smooth, at least one or two glitches a day; too bad it’s the only thing on the market otherwise I would’ve ditched it a long time ago ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No Email Verification! *2025-09-26* This app, after repeated attempt to get a verification email sent to me, and I wrote them a message about it, send me a strange message, claiming that I could somehow send a verification email from myself and to myself, but there’s no understand understanding of how that could work, and after I called Apple and explained this to them and showed them their reply to me, they agreed with me that there is no basis of understanding that text reply they gave me and they have now forwarded a ticket to The department that verifies apps and they should be sending a request over to them to establish a way to verify our emails, particularly to perhaps only, proton mail account holders, or else they could end up losing their app on the Apple Store or other possible actions! So if you’re not able to get a verification email, don’t bother writing to them because they’ll only give you a really bizarre reply and just wait, because it’ll either finally get with the program or they will disappear! ### 1/5 — Overcharge *2025-09-11, version 11.0.4* Sent one text one time on a trial and the app just kept charging. Even though there was no money they kept a tab and built up a huge amount and I am blocked from all apps u til I pay for a service I never used. What happened to the days when u didn’t have money T pay and the app would just stop working g no they now force you o to payments. ### 1/5 — Not as described *2025-07-14, version 11.0.4* Does not work unless recipient clicks on link that takes them to a website ### 1/5 — Free Trial is not true *2025-03-14, version 11.0.3* There’s no free trial. After selecting the 7 days trial, my credit card was charged right away ### 1/5 — Could be more explanatory *2025-02-25, version 11.0.3* I paid the subscription and found out after I could not get a line number through them. Cancelled subscription after a few minutes but the subscription will be up to this day next year and if I want to re enroll I have to pay for it again. But the thing is it is not what I thought it was when I uploaded and subscribed. I should be charged only for the day used. ### 1/5 — No customer support *2025-02-20, version 11.0.3* I have the plus subscription which is supposed to get me priority customer support but it’s been almost a week since I reported an issue and I’ve heard nothing from them ### 1/5 — Never went in, NO free option *2025-02-02, version 11.0.3* False advertisement…there is NO free level…7 day trial then pay, no thanks ### 1/5 — Not working *2025-01-16, version 11.0.2* According to app it should work on my device. Unable to use after last update. App continues to spin no matter what device I use. Deleted and reinstalled the app and it didn’t take care of the issue. Please assist. No helpful response yet. Might need a new update. Awesome app when it works ### 1/5 — Not worth it! *2025-01-12, version 11.0.2* Used to be good when they didn’t charge that ridiculous amount they do now! ### 1/5 — Confide has gone way downhill… *2024-11-27* The phone app was updated to a new look…since then it has been a cludgy interface, slow responsiveness, and delayed messages by several minutes. Further, the Mac desktop app has stopped working (yes, on every model we have here) and multiple emails to support have gone unanswered. At one point we were seriously considering purchasing the subscription, but in light of recent developments, there is no way we can trust this company anymore. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Excellent *2025-10-27, version 11.0.4* Great ### 5/5 — Ashley *2025-10-15, version 11.0.4* Good ### 5/5 — Very good *2024-12-11* At first i thought it was too good to be true, a free app where its screenshot proof, and messages delete and where you can be anonymous.

It is the best out there. Better than what’s app that works with the government. ### 5/5 — It’s awesome *2024-06-03, version 10.0.4* So secure ### 5/5 — Good app *2024-06-03, version 10.0.4* Love this app --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
