The post-creation feature on Secret is more complicated than on Whisper, but the results look more polished. One font, which bears a resemblance to Times New Roman, is even difficult to read. Unfortunately, none of the fonts are very attractive. In addition to changing the background image, users can also choose among four different fonts.
Users can also take a picture or choose one from their library, but the automatic Internet image search is a great feature. You can change this picture, but part of the fun comes in seeing what Whisper automatically suggests. Users are prompted to enter the text of the post, and then the app automatically searches the Internet for a related picture, and inserts it into the post.
Creating new postsĬreating a post in Whisper is always a fun surprise. Even though Whisper has more options, its interface is not quite as clean and modern as Secret's. Whisper's menu and messages area swipe in from the left and right, copying the design trend first popularized by the iOS Facebook app. In a title row above all the posts in the main screen, users can swipe horizontally to navigate among categories. Whisper is also much more image-centric, which only adds to the amount of information crammed onto your smartphone's screen.īut Whisper has a feature that Secret lacks: it lets you browse posts in different categories, such as Popular, Nearby, Featured and Latest. Posts are arranged in a grid, which allows users to see a significantly higher number of posts, but this makes the app look busy. Whisper doesn't have quite the same elegance as Secret. The interface feels sleek and modern, with all unnecessary information hidden from view. Secret fits in perfectly with the new iOS 7 aesthetic, with its flattened design and icons, rather than buttons. Each post has important information at the bottom, including the number of likes and whether the secret comes from a friend or a more distant connection. The Secret timeline looks a lot like Instagram's feed, allowing users to scroll vertically through a single list of square posts. You can use the Whisper app quickly while sharing as little information as possible, but Secret requires both your email address and phone number. Once you've created your PIN, you're ready to start creating and interacting on Whisper. The app also hides all your posts, notifications and messages behind a PIN. Whisper assigns each user a unique, anonymous user name, which you can change to something else if you want. It only asks for information once you want to create your own post or interact with someone else's.
