About

Deftersiz | Private Chat

Read full description

Two people. One notebook. Just now. Deftersiz is a live chat app for you and someone you invite. Paper textures and a handwritten look bring the feeling of a school notebook to your conversation. OPEN A NOTEBOOK Choose a session lasting 1, 5 or 10 minutes. Share the six-digit invitation code. Already have a code? Enter it to join. WRITE TOGETHER One person writes on graph paper, the other on lined paper. See each other’s words in real time and write at the same time. WORDS DISAPPEAR ONE BY ONE Choose a word lifetime of 3, 5, 10 or 15 seconds. Each word disappears when its own time is up. The room closes when the notebook timer ends. The app does not create a chat history you can return to read. LITTLE DETAILS Turn on soft pencil sounds. Use two nudges per conversation to shake the notebook. See who is online and how much time remains. Available in Turkish, English, German, Russian, French and Arabic. CREDITS Opening a notebook uses 1 credit. Start with 1 credit. Every 24 hours, get 1 free credit if your balance is zero; daily credits do not stack. Joining by code is free. Watch an optional rewarded ad to earn 1 credit. For adults aged 18 and over. Internet required. Share your code only with the person you want to invite. Disappearing words do not guarantee that another person cannot record the content by other means.
