India now has its own anonymous social network. Confess, is India’s first anonymous social network app, created by mobility and internet solutions company Vavia Technologies. The app was launched on 4 August 2014 and allows users to share their secret confessions with people in their connections.
Confessions put on the app appears to a user’s connections, who can then like or comment on the confessions. The confession though visible to your connections, doesn’t tell the identity of the person actually sharing it. The app also allows users to message and communicate with other users and search for specific confessions. In addition, users can also vote on other people’s confessions.
Confess is currently available on Android, but the company has announced that it will also be launched on the iOS platform soon. The app sounds very similar to the much talked about Secret app, which is also available on the Play store and allows sharing anonymously. Secret though isn’t the same and lacks some of the features of Confess. For example, the voting feature is missing in Secret. Also, Confess allows users to share pictures along with their confessions.
With the current uproar about security and privacy issues, anonymous social networks make a lot of sense. The downside of them though is that they can be used for nefarious activities and are often flooded solely with sexual and explicit content, which is not approapriate for all ages.
