Dust is an ephemeral messaging app that automatically deletes messages after 24 hours and prevents screenshots. It was created by Mark Cuban's company to address messaging privacy concerns.
Zero-knowledge encryption. No phone number. Every conversation protected.
Dust automatically deletes messages after 24 hours or immediately after reading, depending on settings. Messages are not stored on servers permanently. This reduces the risk of historical data exposure.
Dust encrypts messages in transit and at rest. However, the level of end-to-end encryption and independent auditing is less transparent than open-source alternatives. Users must trust the company's claims.
Dust attempts to detect and prevent screenshots, notifying the sender if one is taken. However, no app can fully prevent screen capture through external cameras or screen recording tools.
Dust has a smaller user base, limited features compared to full messengers, and closed-source code. WeTalkin provides comprehensive encrypted messaging with verified security and a broader feature set.
50,000+ privacy-conscious users already made the switch.
Dust claims messages are deleted from servers. Without open-source verification, you trust the company's statement. WeTalkin's zero-knowledge architecture means messages are never stored in readable form.
Dust detects in-app screenshots and notifies the sender. However, external photography or screen recording tools can capture content without detection.
Dust focuses on ephemeral messaging only. WeTalkin provides comprehensive encrypted communication with zero-knowledge architecture, verified encryption, and broader features.
