How SecretDrop works

Welcome to SecretDrop, a place where you can share a secret, confession or thought completely anonymously. On this page you can discover how the website works and which features you can use.

🤫 What is SecretDrop?

SecretDrop is a website where visitors can share anonymous secrets without an account. Everything you submit is reviewed by moderation before it appears on the wall.

You can read secrets, like them, comment, vote and browse by category. Together, these create a wall full of whispers, confessions and stories people often do not dare to share anywhere else.

📝 Posting a secret

Posting a secret is easy. Use the “Post secret” button to open the form and submit your text.

  • ✅ No account needed
  • ✅ Completely anonymous
  • ✅ Choose a category
  • ✅ Optional nickname, age and gender
  • ✅ Moderation before publication

🔎 Your secret tracking code

After submitting a secret, you receive a secret tracking code. With that code, you can later check the status of your secret.

  • ⏳ Awaiting moderation
  • ✅ Approved
  • ❌ Rejected
  • 🗑️ Deleted

Keep this code safe. Without it, you cannot check the status again.

Important: even the website owner cannot recover or resend this tracking code. It is not stored in a readable form and is only known to you.
