Anonymous group chat
Smack
Group chat where nobody knows who said what. No names, no avatars, and notifications that never name the sender — so people say the thing they would otherwise keep to themselves.
How it works
Three steps, and the names disappear.
01
Start or join a group
Create a group and share its invite code or QR, or redeem someone else's and wait for the admin to wave you in.
02
Say it anonymously
Your message lands in the group with no name attached to it — to everyone else, it is simply something the group said.
03
Nobody gets unmasked
Not in the chat, not in notifications, not when someone reports or blocks you. Only moderation ever sees more.
What's inside
Anonymity that holds up, and rules that do too.
Anonymous by design
Messages appear with no name and no avatar. A group reads as one voice, so what gets said matters more than who said it.
Notifications that give nothing away
Push notifications say “New message” and nothing else. Someone glancing at your Lock Screen learns nothing about who is talking.
Join by code or QR
Every group has an eight-character invite code and a QR code. Share either one — there are no phone books to search and no profiles to browse.
The admin decides who gets in
Redeeming an invite puts you in an approval queue rather than straight into the conversation. Group admins approve or decline, and can remove members later.
Anonymous, not lawless
Hate speech and explicit content are filtered before a message can post. Anyone can report a message, or block its sender — and blocking works without ever telling you who they were.
Quietly alive
You can see that someone is typing, and who is online in the group. You just never see which one of them is about to speak.
The fine print, up front
What “anonymous” actually means here.
Smack hides who wrote each message from other users. It is not end-to-end encrypted, and it is not untraceable. We keep sender information on our servers so we can act on abuse reports and meet our legal obligations.
We think that is the honest trade: an app where nobody can be anonymous to us either would have no way to remove the people who ruin it for everyone else. Full detail is in the Privacy Policy.
