Anonymous secret sharing apps like Secret and Whisper have become pretty popular, but the Awkward app brings a new dimension to this concept by allowing people to share a video confession. Instead of sharing a written secret, Awkward brings a human touch to confessions with 10 second videos of people vocalizing their deepest darkest secrets. Depending on how much you're willing to fess up, the app has a blur tool that can be adjusted to mask your face a little bit or a lot.
The app is like the stories of Post Secret come to life, and the Awkward app definitely delivers the awkward factor since a lot of the confessions are truly embarrassing or uncomfortable to listen to.
