Anonymous Messaging App Outpour Launches on iOS

It can often be embarrassing, opening one’s heart to another person in an expression of gratitude and admiration, but a new iOS app aims to break down that barrier via the help of anonymity. Outpour, available today on iOS, allows users to post anonymous messages about their friends and contacts, with the goal of brightening someone’s day.

Outpour messages require no reciprocation, and since they’re anonymous, the developer says the app avoids the “vanity” of other social networks, which may become more about collecting followers than true connections.
