First night in my own place. It's so quiet I can hear the fridge.

Why it exists

Social media used to be about people. Now it's reels, creators, follower counts and ads. Everyone's performing, and hardly anyone is talking.

Whisper Social is for the talking part.

How it works

One whisper, one night.

This is how most conversations here get going.

  1. You say it.

    No name, no photo. Write it, add a photo, or just record your voice.

    Three months in this city and I still eat dinner alone every night.

  2. People who get it answer.

    Replies come from people who feel the same way, some of them close by.

    • harbor_lights 0.4misame. moved here in May. it gets better, I promise
    • velvet_moth 2.0mithere's a free run club in the park on sundays. everyone there is new too
    • north_window 1.1mieating alone right now as well, if that helps 🫶
  3. Someone messages you.

    Private one-to-one chat, with photos and voice notes.

  4. Typing isn't enough anymore.

    Hop on a voice or video call, right from the chat.

You still don't know each other's names. You don't need to.

Three feeds

Start with the people around you.

Nearby is the heart of Whisper Social: what people within a few miles are thinking right now. When you want a bigger room, switch to Global or Trending.

Into something specific? Join a community around it, or start your own.

Posts from a few miles around you, with roughly how far away they are. Never an exact spot.

Safety

Anonymous, with rules.

Being anonymous only works if the place is safe, so moderation is built into every part of the app.

Child safety comes first.

Anything that sexualises, grooms or endangers a child is removed immediately, the account is banned for good, and we report it to the authorities. No warnings and no second chances.

Looking for Whisper?

The original Whisper app was pulled from the App Store and Google Play, and it shut down for good in July 2025. Whisper Social is a new, independent app built for the people who miss it, with the moderation it never had.

What happened to Whisper

Not affiliated with the original Whisper app or its former owners.

Before you download.

Something else? Ask us.

Is it free?

Yes. Posting, replying, messaging, Nearby and communities are all free. Optional Plus and Pro plans add extras, and Pro includes voice and video calls.

Can I use it on iPhone?

Apple has removed Whisper Social from the App Store, and we're appealing the decision. Until then, open app.whispersocial.app in Safari and add it to your Home Screen. It works like the app.

Can anyone find out who I am?

Other people see a username and nothing else. No real name, no photo, no contacts, no follower list. Your account does have an internal ID so we can act on reports and keep people safe.

Does Nearby show where I live?

No. It shows roughly how far away a post was made, like “0.8mi”. Your exact location is never shown, and if you turn off location access, people stop seeing a distance for you.

What languages is it in?

English, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Spanish and Swedish.

How do I delete my account?

Open Settings in the app and choose Delete Account. Your account, posts and comments are then scheduled for deletion.

Someone nearby is still awake.

On iPhone, use the web app

Apple has removed Whisper Social from the App Store, and we're appealing the decision. In the meantime, Whisper Social works right in your browser. No download needed.

  1. 1Open the web app in Safari
  2. 2Tap Share
  3. 3Choose Add to Home Screen. It opens like any other app.
