SagMal ("Tell Me" in German) is a new chatting app like no other, where the foremost is your privacy. • You provide absolutely nothing of your personal details when registering. No phone, no e-mail. Therefore, there is no way your personal data can be stolen or given away. • We use doble encoding using state-of-the art encoding algorithms. You can easily encode any chat and it won’t be even obvious that it’s encoded (see 3 first screenshots) to your significant other or any official. • Messages are deleted from the server as soon as they're delivered. And the servers are based in neutral Switzerland, unreachable to most of the the Big Brothers. • It’s very easy to change pictures and names of your contacts so that your significant other or the authorities won’t suspect who you’re talking to. • This app is ideal for: o Wife/husband cheaters, you will be very difficult to catch o Anyone who is not willing to receive targeted advertisement, or who simply doesn’t want to give away your personal details o Anyone willing to go or to organize a meeting that has not been authorized by the State. The Big Brother will have a hard time catching you We use double encoding with state-of-the-art encoding algorithms where nobody (even us) can decode your messages. To enable double-encoding set the chatroom password at the beginning and let it know to whoever you're chatting to right away. For extra safety do not use chat to inform about your chatroom password. Note that your chat messages are encoded anyways (even if you don't provide an extra password), but with this additional password you get a second encoding on top of the first one. And not only text but all the images are encoded as well. Here is an incomplete list of SagMal chat features: - No need to give your phone or E-mail when registering. Just the good old way of providing a username and a password. - We delete all messages from our servers as soon as they are delivered. - There are no "bots" like in some other messaging apps that can provide anyone with your registration information, nicknames, etc. - Our servers and hosting are located in neutral Switzerland. - Your personal data can't be stolen from our servers - just because there is no personal data available - we don't know your e-mail and phone number. - But this is not all - for each chat window you have the possibility to encode the chat contents with a unique key that we won't know. You just let this key know to your chat counterpart. - Using a key you can easily encode your chat. This is the way to have private conversations that won't be seen by your husband or your wife, your parents or authorities. Also photos will be encoded as well! - SagMal chat app protects you from your "Big brother" - there is no way they will know that you plan to go to a meeting where you're not supposed to go. - Very easy to delete messages, from both, yours and your counterpart devices. You can also set how long a message will live before it will be automatically deleted. - Possibility to have multiple accounts on the same device. Very easy to switch between accounts. - Delete a contact or add it to a blocked list is easy by swiping a contact to the left. - Refresh contact list or data from the server by pulling the view down. - Messages just sent are in italic font, received by the server are in normal font and received by the user are in bold. Please let us know if you find any bugs or wish to see some improvements or new features. The app is free to send text, audio messages, images and small videos (up to 10 MB per day). If you want to send larger media files you can purchase a subscription which renews monthly .

Sometimes you just need to talk. Not to people who know you, and not to people who expect something from you — just to someone who is ready to listen. Anonymous is a private communication space where real conversations happen in a safe and respectful environment. It’s designed to help people connect one-on-one while keeping personal information protected and minimizing pressure or expectations.

The focus stays on the conversation itself — simple, human, and genuine. Before each connection, you have control over who you talk to. You can choose to continue, skip, or end a conversation at any time, making every interaction fully optional and comfortable. People use Anonymous for many different reasons: to talk about life, share thoughts they don’t feel comfortable expressing elsewhere, practice a language, learn about another culture, or simply spend a few quiet minutes in conversation. Chats are private and designed with user safety in mind. You’re always in control — continue when it feels right, or move on whenever you want. To keep the space safe and respectful, Anonymous includes: Reporting and blocking tools Active moderation A rating system that helps build a trusted community Anonymous is not therapy and does not replace professional help.
