‘Disckreet’ Sexting App Fends Off Vengeful Ex-lovers and Hackers

A messaging platform designed to protect your digital sex life. 

Without a doubt, one of the biggest concerns people have when sharing intimate pictures and videos is that of privacy: we want only the intended recipient to see our personal erotic images.

Unfortunately, according to a research paper published in 2016, a staggering 23% recipients have reportedly broken their partner’s trust by sharing their explicit messages or pictures with more than three people outside of the relationship.

Even more disturbing, 10% have actually threatened to post revealing content online.

This is where Disckreet comes in. The messaging app shows promise in keeping private virtual encounters and related media just that, private.

Vault to messaging

Back in 2014, Disckreet released Disckreet Vault: a secure medium for couples to share and store their intimate data. To prohibit unwanted sharing, the contents are kept on one or two phones and can only be accessed if both parties plug in their own special code.

No code, no sharing.

Now, they’ve re-released Vault as Disckreet: a new app (on iOS and Android) that brings with it the same respect for privacy with the added bonus of being a messaging platform.

Securing privacy

As with Vault, the Disckreet messaging app locks all content behind a personal password backed up with military grade encryption.

But now there’s a greater degree of control. Each user has the ability to decide when any images or messages are accessed and can remotely delete intimate files from their partner’s phone as well as their own.

Additionally, the Disckreet app doesn’t store any content itself. The moment anything is sent from one party to another, it is automatically deleted from Disckreet’s system. This means that even if anyone should hack into their servers they wouldn’t find anything there.

Previously with Vault, there had been some concerns that a disreputable user could use screen recording to capture content. But with the new messaging app, should anyone try to make an unauthorized picture the account is locked for ten minutes. An alert is also sent to the other partner letting them know about the attempt.

Currently, the basic version Disckreet is free to download from the Apple’s App Store as well as Google play for Android—with additional features available for a subscription fee.

The value of peace of mind

While Disckreet might not be perfect, it is still an important move in the right direction. Developers have been listening to users’ concerns about safety and privacy are working on solutions.

Sex, after all, is often a very intimate, private exchange. That there are so many who would break that trust is one of the darker aspects of sex tech.

But with Disckreet and similar apps being released that meant to protect your digital sex life, there will more options for security and fewer reasons to fear betrayal or lousy, no-good sex shamers!

M.Christian (they/them) loves nothing better than exploring the intersections of sex and technology—and speculating on the future of both. A highly regarded erotica writer they have six novels,12 collections, 100+ short stories, and 25 anthologies as an editor to their name. Their non-fiction regularly appears in many sites, but they're most proud of being a regular contributor to Future of Sex.

Of their erotic fiction, Tristan Taormino said that “M.Christian is a literary stylist of the highest caliber: smart, funny, frightening, sexy—there's nothing [they] can't write about… and brilliantly.”

Reflecting their unique ability to sympathetically and convincingly write for a range of genders and sexual orientations, their stories have appeared in multiple editions of Best American Erotica, Best Gay Erotica, Best Lesbian Erotica, The Mammoth Books of Erotica, and others. Their collection of gay erotic fiction, Dirty Words, was a finalist for the Lambda Literary Award.

While a majority of their stories have been collected into books like Dirty Words, their fondness for combining sex and science fiction is clearly evident in collections that include Rude Mechanicals, Technorotica, Better Than The Real Thing, Skin Effect Effect, Bachelor Machine, and Hard Drive: The Best Sci-Fi Erotica of M.Christian.

As a novelist, M.Christian’s versatility is on full display with Running Dry, The Very Bloody Marys, Brushes, Painted Doll; and the somewhat controversial queer BDSM/horror/thrillers Finger's Breadth, and Me2.

M.Christian has worked on the industry’s production side as an Associate Publisher for Renaissance E Books and as a Publisher for Digital Parchment Services. The latter dedicated to celebrating the works of science-fiction legends such as William Rotsler, Jerome Bixby, Jody Scott, Arthur Byron Cover, Ernest Hogan, and James Van Hise.

Covering topics like BDSM safety, sexual education, senior sexuality concerns, queer and gender issues, plus reviewing a variety of sex tech products, M.Christian’s non-fiction has appeared on sites like Kinkly, Tickle.Life, Sexpert, Queer Majority, Sex for Every Body, and—of course—their ongoing work for Future of Sex.

If there’s anything M.Christian enjoys more than writing, it’s teaching. A featured presenter, sometimes with their friend Ralph Greco Jr, at national sex and BDSM events, they have lectured on kink play (with an emphasis on safety), polyamory, boosting sexual creativity, and erotica writing--for beginners or those wanting to go pro.

M.Christian is a cohost on two popular sex-education podcasts: Love’s Outer Limits with Dr. Amy Marsh and Licking Non-Vanilla with Ralph Greco, Jr.
