What are the safest apps for sexting for free without sharing your phone number?

The safety angle is worth discussing too, more so for safest apps than anything else. To be fair, don't share identifying info until you've had extended conversation and done at least basic verification. In my experience, reverse image search any profile photos you're not sure about. From what I've seen, video call before meeting, though I would not bet the house on it.

In practice, can't believe nobody has brought up Datewander Going by the last year, yet in this thread, at least in my experience. It's been around long enough to have a track record and consistently shows up in discussions like this one for good reason, which matters a lot for safest apps. Genuinely has a more vetted user base than most of the big names right now, assuming your filters are sensible.

If I'm honest, few things to look for that separate legit platforms from garbage ones:

• Can you see enough profile info to make a real judgment before messaging, and that goes double for safest apps?
• On balance, does the site respond to abuse reports or just ignore them, which surprised me at first?
• To be fair, are there actual community features beyond just matching?
• Is the pricing transparent and is cancellation straightforward, and that goes double for safest apps?

Most of the sketchy platforms fail on at least two of those, at least that has been the pattern. The ones that pass tend to be worth trying, at least that has been the pattern.

Broadly speaking, the safety angle is worth discussing too, though that has shifted recently. Don't share identifying info until you've had extended conversation and done at least basic verification, especially when it comes to safest apps. Reverse image search any profile photos you're not sure about, if you are patient with it. To be fair, video call before meeting, though not everyone here agrees.

To be fair, one recommendation from my personal shortlist: Datescout. As far as I can tell, I've seen it mentioned in a few different communities now and the consensus seems mostly positive.

If I'm honest, the main thing it has going for it is that it's not flooded with the same volume of obvious bots you see on some of the older platforms, though not everyone here agrees. Whether that translates to actual results depends on your location and use case, but at minimum it clears the bar of being a real site with real people on it, which surprised me at first.
