Robert Statica one of the founder and director of the Center for Information Protection at New Jersey Institute of Technology said: "The message this will evaporate as soon as people get to read and not open to back any trace. We want people to send messages easily, safely and without a trace. "

Many other applications have the same idea to manually delete messages as Snapchat, Burn and Tigertext Note. But these applications are not able to encrypt the message delivered. With Wickr, not only erase, but also the ability to encrypt messages before sending the case to go to the wrong room snooping on the network or even the services they are able to intercept and record messages sent on the road.

Thus, the message sent from the iPhone through the service will become a lot safer. The developers claim that Wickr, Wickr designed using AES and RSA encryption strong, so even the Wickr servers can not see this message and in fact, they do not have the key to decrypt the encrypted content users submit.

To use, users only need to install and open the application and writing a message, attach photos ... time and date information exists from a second (after file opened) to 6 days. Statica said it would soon have Wickr version for Android devices.
