Just change the settings on Telegram so you're not visible to your contacts elsewhere.
Then when you want someone to have it, just give them your details.
Telegram is just a free app, not sex related so just say that ha ha |

Kik has done me no harm. I do have Facebook but on it about 10 mins a week |

Exactly, there's nothing suspicious about downloading a messaging app.
I wouldn't worry about it. |

There is absolutely no reason for me to download that app and if my daughter got a notification then anyone on my contacts who has it would get one too. I know what I would think if I saw a notification from someone else. It's just not as private as I thought it was |

giving a phone number on watsapp i find easier than all the trying to find a secret app nonsense. You can just block the number if they give you any nonsense |

I see people pop up on Telegram all the time, I just think they're chatting to someone... they could be talking to their boss/parents/friends... there're many reasons as to why someone would download a messaging app. It's not always super sexy secret stuff.
All they know is that you've downloaded the app, they can't see your contacts or what you're up too.
She probably won't think much of it. |

"You do realise Telegram isn't a sex/swingers based app??"
Its not , i joined it because a watsapp group for a social thing was maxed out
But given everyone in it that it showed me as contacts (strangely some not even in my phone) were people i knew from either fab / tinder / cheating on their wives or suspected drug dealers on the side, i would say it takes very little for people to add 2 + 2 and get 4= odds are this person is trying to keep something quiet |

I don't have my real name on kik. You can pick any name you like. I'm called 'Fuck you' on mine. I don't think it's a secret and 95% of fab either use it or have heard of it. I also think giving your phone number out is the never something I would do. If you feel the need to block someone that tells you it's not a good idea |

Telegram is renowned for having some very dodgy groups on it so that might be why she is asking? Far-right, vivid conspiracy, MAGA, people selling everything from crypto currency to guns and dr*gs, and lots of es*orts too so you might be better on mastodon as it doesn’t attract quite so many loons  |

As someone that never uses Facebook I just don't give it out and those that know me know not to bother contacting me through Fb.
Regular texting and calls cost money.

You're more likely to send inappropriate pics on WhatsApp. No family/work etc are on my kik. If I send a pic then it's just people off fab. I don't get notifications on my kik and it doesn't show on my phone. You have no control when someone messages you on WhatsApp as I like notifications on. I could think of nothing worse than my phone sitting and a message popping up with god knows what from someone off fab |

Ah the same thing happened to me! And that is even when I was hiding my number and denying access to contacts. I guess you could always tell your family and friends you're on there for innocent reasons and they shouldn't suspect anything if you have a tame photo etc. My uncle and cousin messaged me surprised to see me on it and I told them I just downloaded it for some random chat groups. I'm sure they were both up to no good on it. |

I've deleted it and I'll never reinstall it. Just hope not many people on my contacts have it. Your comment about "I'm sure they were both up to no good" is the main reason I didn't want people knowing I was on it |

Yeah I get it's just a chat app but most people I've known who use it, use it because it is discreet and isn't as personal as a mobile number and WhatsApp etc since you have the option to hide (even if it doesn't always work) so I completely understand why you wouldn't want to be on it, even if it isn't always for sex. It's heavily associated with being sneaky I think.
It's much better than KIK though. I'd highly recommend it if you do want to do some sneaky business. |

Kik does the same as telegram and routinely tells people in your phone that have kik that they should add you
So chances are your if your daughter is using kik she has also been recommended to add “fuck you” on there - if theres a picture of you then it doesnt take much working out
You can feel safer with your not so secret apps , i feel safer using my phone number and being selective who gets it with a block as a back up should i need it |

yeah i get it it just gives off those vibes to me because its not mainstream yet
The same way that years ago when dating if someone suggested using kik it set the cheat alarm bells ringing
It might not be an app specifically for that but people tend to get a feel for what kind of users have gravitated to which app |

I never added my phone number to kik. I don't want to give my phone number out. People keep saying you can just block them. It takes 2 seconds for people to forward your number and its well know that you can connect Facebook through your phone number. It's not a good idea for me |

Sadly it does seem to be another free app that a lot of cheating partners use though to not get caught  |
