What are the features that make it a great choice?


BAT messenger has been considered to be one of the most secure instant messengers you have ever come across for smartphones. It makes use of an asymmetric cryptography algorithm that provides it with a clear edge over the other messaging options. The end to end encryption is what would make it a formidable choice.

Multiple Chat Options


The service provides you access to multiple chat options. You can indulge in group chats or individual chats as on most other service providers. In addition, it also offers you access to temporary chats akin to SnapChat and anonymous group chats that will not let others know your real identity.
The anonymous chat lets you speak your mind freely. BAT Messenger creates a specific username for each of the chat sessions; no one will be able to get through your real identity.

Retract your messages


Most of the instant messengers provide you with the message retract option, but they have a time limit that you would be able to retract the message. BAT Messenger makes it possible to retract your messages without any sort of time limit. You also have access to a two way retract option. Do note that the action is irrevocable.

Burn After Reading


This is yet innovative feature offered by BAT Messenger to its subscribers. If you turn on the Burn After Reading option in your chats, the messages will be gone soon after you have read them. This is a feature that most of us have loved on SnapChat.

Destroy Password


This should perhaps be the most thoughtful addition to your instant messaging and a perfect privacy configuration. You will be given a Destroy Password when setting up your BATmesenger account. If you think your privacy is at stake or you no longer want to be associated with your BAT Messenger account, you can use the Destroy Password to remove your account with all the details therein in an instant. Please note that this action cannot be recovered.

A few other salient features worth mentioning would include

have you checked the Utopia built-in messenger? It doesn't require any personal information and no one will find you on the web or could read your messages. It seems great that such services started to appear as I'm already tired of thinking if I'm really anonymous speaking to someone.
