    Default I Don't Understand Kik

    Ok, I probably sound really dumb (and possibly "old") but I don't understand Kik. It seems like everyone is using it. I thought the entire point was that you can remain anonymous, yet when I downloaded it, it made me put in my full name and it seemed like it showed up when I talked to people? I mean, sure, I could put in a fake name, but... you could do that with anything. What makes Kik so special? Or am I just... doing it wrong? lol

    And yes, I tried googling, but apparently the concept of people not inherently knowing how to use this stupid app is just so absurd that there are no real walkthroughs of it. And I know there are plenty of girls on here who use it for anonymously chatting with people. Plz help? I wanna be a cool kid and hip to the technology.

    Snapchat is used a lot, and I have it. But it seems like everyone nowadays is like "kik me!" and gives me a screenname. And I'm like "Idk what to do with this..." lol So I attempted to finally download it because I need a new messaging app, thought I could keep it anonymous, and almost instantly someone who doesn't even have my phone number found and messaged me. Not what I was going for.

    And I know it can't be through facebook this time because I deleted all facebook affiliated apps from my phone and then specifically went into settings and severed the connections those apps had with data in my phone.

    Kik is one more social media marketing tool. I'm not familiar with it either. Learning to profit using social media is a hot topic that most people who do know how to use it are going to be charging for that info. If you googled and didn't find free tutorials you may have to pay someone to teach you and/or manage it for you if you don't have the time.

    Haha, I just realized someone asked about Kik over in other work about a month ago. Guess I coulda just asked in there rather than starting a new thread. Well, thank god I'm not the only one out of the loop.

    I finally downloaded it recently cuz my friends bug me and I deleted my "real" FB account until I go through my divorce. It's pretty easy and my phone works pretty well with it. I tried snap but kept freezing up on me.

    Glad I'm not the only one! Guess I've been fine without it so far, ya know?
