About

This app allows you to hide sent messages by overlaying a sticker. Unlike iMessage's delete feature, this makes the message invisible to your chat partner, appearing as a blank space. It's a white-only sticker that can be applied multiple times for larger messages.

How does this work!!!!!??

I got this app and tried to use it but it’s literally blank. Nothing is there when I hit the app

Yes. It works.

It is a bit of a trick, because you are taking a white box (which is what you want to cover the offending text/pic/gif/whatever!!) and moving it to iMessage. Follow the instructions, you WILL find it and it will work. Also you can pinch and expand it to cover larger spaces.
Be aware that if the other iPhone is using the Dark Theme.... it will indeed appear as a white box and they will be curious as to what was covered up. 🤪

I loved it

Thanku so much for whoever invented it I love, you saved my life cuz I accidentally sent someone a message that wasn’t supposed to go to them and it was a serious matter and this app saved me. Thanks Once again keep up worth the good work.

bigger box

i love the app but i think the box should be a little bit bigger incase of bigger messages.. dragging the box lots of times takes time

Garbage.

This is so bum. It needs to be free. I tested it and it isn’t even operable.

Response from developer

Hi and sorry to hear. It is working and it is kind of a trick: When you select the sticker, you will only see a blank space. The sticker itself is in the upper left corner (as suggested in the screenshots). Click and hold on that upper left corner and drag the sticker over a message (you can and sometimes need to do that several times to fully hide the message). I hope this helps and if so: please consider adjusting your rating! Thank you very much!
