On Wickr Me and Wickr Pro, the app `Show my Status` option defaults to 'On' and can be found in the Wickr Menu-Settings. If you press your Contact's avatar, you can get more detailed information on their status: A full green circle would mean the user is active. The iCloud option for Wickr shown below in iOS settings is to store only the Wickr application, and will not store your personal information/messages. Siri Suggestions: If you see a popup on your device asking if you would like to use Wickr, that is likely Siri Suggestions. You can turn this off entirely or per app in iOS Settings-Siri & Search.
Wickr Messenger is now available on Mac, Windows and Linux computers in addition to Apple and Android mobile devices. This is the first desktop communication app to seamlessly incorporate perfect forward secrecy, picture, video and voice sharing. All messages are now synced across multiple devices on both desktop and mobile. The Wickr app is free and takes less than a minute to get started at wickr.com.
Wickr Messenger is made for your best friends and family.
I suggest inviting your top ten friends first. Wickr is ad free and collects no information on you or your friends. You chose how long and where your messages and pictures live. Furthermore, you fully own and control your messages and contacts. This is not true with messages, pictures and contact information you share on SMS, email, Snapchat, Skype, WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.

Wickr messages meet top-secret standards through perfect forward secrecy because only your device has the key and a different key is used for each message. As we regularly say here at Wickr – every database will be hacked. That is why we build our technology with a zero-knowledge system* so your data would never get in the wrong hands.
