Read what you need, and wait for your own phone to send the message. The website text chat is tied to that browser. Do not start one you would mind the next person seeing.

How to message on a public or borrowed computer
A borrowed computer keeps downloads, and sometimes keeps sessions. Act as if the next person can open the same browser.
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.
Is incognito enough?
It reduces what the browser keeps. It does not replace sign-out, and it does not hide you from someone looking over your shoulder.
Does Kissend store the chat on that computer?
The account stores the chat. The computer stores whatever you downloaded, plus the session until you sign out.
