Your number is the account. Contacts are uploaded. Groups are easy to grow. Notifications are aggressive because the app expects to be your primary inbox.
Guide
Why a private chat feels different from a traditional messenger
The difference is the identity and the default audience, not a magic lock.
In the app
A private chat, with the locks.
- A username instead of your phone number.
- App lock, a hidden list, and a decoy PIN.
- A vault for files, away from the gallery.
- Friend chats and groups are free.

Help
Questions, answered.
A few quick answers before your first chat. The app has its own screens after you claim an account.
Can Kissend replace every group I have?
It can host a group. It is a poor fit if you want every acquaintance imported automatically.
Do I still get notifications?
Yes, with switches for direct chats, groups, and random chats, plus quiet hours.
