A user can write their own Sendit or choose from a list of options, such as ‘Ask me anything’ or ‘In the car, entertain me’. Or a user can choose a question-based game such as ‘Guess Who – reply with a clue and I’ll guess who you are’. They can also play ‘AR’ (Augmented Reality) games which show animations on top of a photo or video. Users can also message Sendit creators or search for other users, including finding people who live nearby.
People can share a link to their Sendit or game with others or they can share it directly on Snapchat (as you can connect your Sendit account to Snapchat). Users have a limited number of guesses to find out who has sent a message or they can pay to reveal hints about the sender. Users are rewarded with ‘trophies’ for posting Sendits and receiving responses.
You can create your own ‘AI clone’ which ‘gets to know you, act like you, and answer like you’. To create this fake AI profile, the app asks for a photo and asks personal questions such as ‘Who do you text the most?’ and ‘Single?’. The app uses the answers to these questions to create the fake profile, including a fake bio and text describing the profile’s ‘green flags’, ‘red flags’ and their ‘personal life’. The user is prompted to share their AI clone on Snapchat, where other people can Sendit questions and receive AI-generated responses.
There are no parental controls on Sendit. However, a user can report a harmful message to the app and block the sender.
