![]() Please bring back the manual controls and the functionality that allows you to permanently overwrite/erase/shred deleted files (other than those are tied to Wickr specifically)! Wickr held a perfect spot in the App Store for this use case, and now it’s hard to find a suitable (and trusted) replacement. Manual controls allowed not only the ability to monitor progress of the operation, but also allowed users to see the before and after effects the shred had on available storage. ![]() While it’s nice to think that’s running in the background, the app eventually times out and the screen lock comes on (which effectively shuts down the app) while waiting for the background shred to work. In Wickr Me, expiration timers can be set to anywhere from 6 hours to 6. Expiration timers dictate how long after a message is sent that it will be deleted. I was initially excited to see the new revamped app hit the market, but then I discovered that the most useful feature-Secure Shred-had not only had its manual functionality removed, but also now only focused on erasing/sanitizing the data related to Wickr messaging. This is why Wickr the most secure communication platform on the planet features ephemeral communications, in the form of expiration timers and burn-on-read timers. It is important even if not say breaking the law that people have their privacy. Thank you guys for making such an App possible. Wickr Me can be installed in Debian and provides various functionality in addition to end-to-end encrypted messaging: With Wickr Me, you can instantly connect with your friends 1:1 or in groups - now with fully encrypted voice calling, voice memos - new additions to the trusted end-to-end secure sharing of files, images, and videos. If they could please program it to expire where you left it the last time I would feel along with others who I’ve spoken to would all feel more secure about using “Wickr” to communicate. Obviously signal wants your real phone number to use it which is dumb. The thing about this is when you communicate on a large scale it’s nonsense to keep all the open threads.īut when starting a new conversation with someone the following day it’s now once again on a 5 day expiration because you may forget to reset it. ![]() Where as in the app “Signal” it will remember if you had a 1-3 hour expiration or a whole day. The chances are if you deleted the thread you now will have a message that won’t expire for 5-6 days. That being said if you want the messages to expire within a certain time that you say happen to have left it as. On wickr unfortunately it will reset every time you delete a thread. Wickr Me suspensions are only for 24 hours and per device, so if the contact logs in with the right password on a new device they can begin to receive messages again. EVEN AFTER HE USER DELETED THE MESSAGE THREAD. Apps such as signal allow the user to set an expiration timer in which is programmed per user for ever.
