OneShot: Private Messenger

No accounts. No history. No traces. OneShot is the ephemeral messaging app built for people who value true privacy. Every time you open the app, you get a fresh 4-character session code - no username, no sign-up, no profile. Share it with the person you want to talk to, they enter yours, and your private channel opens instantly. When the chat ends, every message is gone from both devices and our servers. No logs kept. No backups made. Messages That Self-Destruct Set your message timer from 1 to 60 minutes. The moment your partner reads your message, the countdown begins. Watch the live timer tick down on each bubble - then it's gone. Forever. You control the clock. Zero Identity Required OneShot uses anonymous authentication. No name, no email, no phone number - ever. Your only identity is a temporary code that changes every session. Stay Reachable Without Being Traceable A separate, persistent invite code lets trusted contacts ping you with a push notification - without revealing who you are. Save their code under a private nickname visible only to you. Nicknames never leave your device. Privacy Built Into Every Layer - Screenshots blocked on Android; a privacy screen activates on iOS when you switch apps - Auto-lock wipes the session after a configurable timeout - Long-press your session code for an instant panic wipe - ends the chat and clears all local data in one gesture - All sensitive data stored in device-level encrypted storage, never synced to the cloud Use Cases Coordinate discreetly. Planning a surprise? Organizing something sensitive? OneShot keeps the conversation off the record - no notification previews leaking on a shared screen, no chat history waiting to be discovered. Share sensitive information without a permanent record. Passwords, PINs, financial details, personal documents - some things should never live in a chat history. Send it, let it be read, watch it disappear. No screenshots possible, no cloud backup, no trail. Connect with someone at an event without exchanging numbers. Met someone interesting at a conference, a meetup, or a party? Share a 4-character code instead of your phone number. Have the conversation. Move on - or stay in touch on your own terms, with nothing handed over you didn't choose to give. Have a confidential conversation with a source, client, or friend - on your terms. Journalists, lawyers, therapists, consultants - some conversations require discretion by default. OneShot gives you a clean channel that leaves no evidence it ever existed. Discuss something personal without it following you. Health concerns, relationship troubles, financial stress - sometimes you need to talk without worrying about algorithms, data brokers, or a future screenshot. Say what you need to say. Then let it go. Talk freely while traveling or in unfamiliar networks. On public Wi-Fi, a hotel network, or abroad? OneShot sessions are ephemeral by design - nothing cached locally, nothing stored server-side after the chat ends. A compromised network has nothing to intercept after the fact. Settle things without creating ammunition. Disagreements, negotiations, difficult conversations - sometimes the best outcome is resolution without a written record either party can weaponize later. OneShot gives both sides a fair, traceless space to work it out. Honest & Simple No cloud backup. No message history. No tracking. What happens in OneShot disappears with it.
