Frequently Asked Questions
Does incognito mode affect encryption?
No. Encryption is always active regardless of incognito mode. Incognito mode adds activity privacy on top of message encryption — hiding your behavioral patterns rather than your message content.
Can I see others' read receipts while hiding mine?
No. Read receipt visibility is reciprocal. If you disable read receipts, you also lose the ability to see when others read your messages. This ensures fair privacy for all participants.
Is incognito mode obvious to contacts?
Contacts will notice that your read receipts and typing indicators are no longer visible, and your "last seen" status disappears. They cannot tell if you have specifically enabled incognito mode versus individually disabling each feature.
