## What is NoTrace.im?

NoTrace.IM gives you a way to send confidential messages using a secure, untraceable method that ensures the ONLY recipient is the INTENDED recipient.  

How many times have you accidentally sent a text or email that backfired on you?  Have you ever wanted to take back a message you sent? Who else did that text or email get shared with?  How much of your data has the government captured?  

What does NoTrace.IM give you?

-A secure method of sending and receiving untraceable messages.  No digital footprint.
-The ability to take back a message before it has been viewed. 
-The option of sending a message to a phone, an email, or both. 
-The confidence of knowing that any message you send wonít backfire on you.
-The knowledge that your message cannot be forwarded to someone else.
-Anonymity.  You can sign your message...or not!

Messages sent via NoTrace.IM disappear from sight after a brief viewing period and, subsequently, are deleted forever. It is a tool for anyone who is mindful that the email and text messages they send can be stored and traced back to them.  NoTrace.IM provides freedom.  It gives you the ability to deliver a private message to someone via electronic messaging... much like a whisper!

The brilliance of NoTrace.IM versus traditional messaging systems is that the message never leaves our server until it is viewed and erased.  Traditional messaging transmits a message from one device to another device.  Once delivered, the sender loses control of that message.  It can be forwarded, printed, saved forever, or traced back to the sender.  With NoTrace.IM the message stays on our server until it is viewed, then it is scrubbed and deleted.  You have the ability to unsend messages that have not yet been viewed.  NoTrace.IM provides deniability of sent messages, as your name does not appear anywhere on the message itself.  Also the person receiving the message is not required to download anything to read your message.

Youíre in control now.  The messages you send are completely private and cannot be traced back to you.  NoTrace.IM will be your everyday go-to app for private, secure messaging.  The only question now is why would you use anything else??

### 2/5 — Confused??

*2016-10-22, version 2.5*

For the past week now I've been wanting to use this app and I'm waiting for the confirmation email still. I thought at first maybe it was just me but it's been exactly 7 days and still nothing. I'm really still looking to have excellent hopes for this app, so how can I get past this?

### 5/5 — Love this!!!

*2016-10-12, version 2.5*

My favorite app!!!!!!  Perfect for sending confidential info without leaving a digital footprint!!!!

### 1/5 — This app is perfect for stalkers.

*2016-09-30, version 2.5*

This app is used by my ex husband to harass me because I have blocked so many other avenues. He has gone to jail for it and still continues to harass me daily with this app. You creators should have never made this app. It's perfect for stalkers! But since you have made it and made plenty of money off of it why don't you make it to where the messages can be blocked by the person that is being harassed. Do you think I want to have him blowing my phone up every single day because you made it easy for him?? Come on people who use this can be very dangerous and you are letting it happen. Thanks for that.

### 1/5 — If you want to get caught..

*2016-04-01, version 2.5*

This is bogus. I was going to use it for an Aprils Fool joke but I sent myself a test email, it clearly showed my IP address on the headers. I tried sending myself 4 texts, not one single one came through. It is bogus. Don’t waste your time. There are far better things out there. I’m sorry I had to give it 1 star.

### 5/5 — Amazing!!!
