You can use Kissend in the browser without adding a home-screen icon. The phone app, if you install it, is an icon like any other. App lock still covers the open app.
Guide
Keep a conversation off the home screen
The icon is optional. The notification is not, unless you mute it.
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.

Mute the chat and use quiet hours. A hidden chat does not replace those, because the banner is drawn by the phone.

Questions, answered.
A few quick answers before your first chat. The app has its own screens after you claim an account.
Can I use Kissend without installing?
Yes, for the guides and the text chat. Friends, media, and the vault are in the app.
Will the website chat notify the phone?
The guest website chat stays in that browser. Account notifications follow the app and the switches in Profile.
