Exchange usernames, accept the friend request, and pin the chat for yourselves. If a roommate knows the phone passcode, turn on the app lock inside Kissend too.
Guide
College couples, without exchanging numbers
Roommates, family, and group projects are three reasons a number spreads. A couple can keep one thread off that path.
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.

The setup
Photos
View-once for a picture that should not sit in the thread. The vault for a picture you both want to keep. Say which is which, so one of you is not guessing.

Help
Questions, answered.
A few quick answers before your first chat. The app has its own screens after you claim an account.
Does a roommate see notifications?
They can, unless you mute the chat and use quiet hours. The phone's own lock screen is part of this.
Can we block later?
Yes. Block ends messaging and removes the chat from your list.
