Why Ittisal
Privacy from outsiders. Not secrecy from each other.
Ittisal keeps the useful parts of messaging, then removes the loopholes that make harm easier.
Already read? The original still exists.
Fix mistakes before a message is seen. After that, the reader keeps access to what was sent.
Typical apps
One person can rewrite history for everyone.
Ittisal
The receiver keeps the truth if it was already read.
Temporary messaging needs both people to agree.
Mutual consent replaces one-sided controls for disappearing messages and similar features.
Typical apps
One side decides what disappears and when.
Ittisal
Temporary behavior starts only after both people accept.
Silence the noise without blocking real help.
Focus mode and bedtime mode reduce distraction while emergency contacts still break through.
Typical apps
Quiet mode can hide important messages too.
Ittisal
Important people still reach you when it matters.
Safety Flow
Designed for daily life, not just edge cases.
Set boundaries once, use the app normally, and know that emergency tools are already in place.
Choose the trusted circle.
Approve who can contact a child, define admins, and keep emergency contacts always reachable.
Use it like a real messenger.
Calls, groups, folders, polls, reminders, and broadcasts stay available without paid tiers.
Escalate instantly if needed.
SOS taps, check-in timers, and preserved abusive messages help people act with proof.
