Secret is a new secret sharing app that has been recently launched on the iTunes store, with the purpose of letting people share what they are thinking and feeling, free of judgement. Created by former employees of Square and Google, Secret’s concept is to allow users of the app to anonymously share secrets with members within their social circles. Of course, there are no names and no profiles involved.

Secret is a new way to share what you’re thinking and feeling with your friends, anonymously.
[+] Write anything that’s on your mind, free of judgment.
[+] Make your words stand out by adding a photo or color backdrop. Customize further with blur, textures, and moods.
[+] Comment on your friends’ posts with a new and unique avatar for each conversation.
[+] When friends like your post, it spreads to their friends. The most interesting posts can travel around the world.
Secret is fun and addictive. Be yourself. Say what you mean. Speak freely.

Every secret that you share has a comment thread attached to it, so you can get replies which are also anonymous. You need to have at least three friends on Secret before seeing posts, though. David Bytow, one of the founders, calls Secret a “normalizing platformâ€:

Basically, every secret should stand on the merit of its own idea. It would be nice, for once, to have a normalizing platform

The more likes or comments a post receives, the more it gets spread, so there’s a chance that you will find useful answers to the problems that you’re having. As for technical details regarding the actual intimacy, Secret’s privacy page says that users’ log, location and device information is being collected for debugging and analytical purposes only. And the best part is that the app is available free of charge.
