Example prompt, response and unsent draft.

Your choices

Choose how people find you.

Add an optional username. Manage phone and username discovery separately, and choose whether to share read receipts.

Read our Privacy Policy

Username

An optional username

Add a username if you want one. You still use a phone number to register.

Discovery

Two separate discovery choices

Choose whether people can find you by your exact username or phone number. Contacts access does not turn on discovery.

Blocking

A boundary for direct contact

Blocking stops new direct messages, calls and discovery. Shared-group messages still follow group membership.

Sharing

Choose what you share

Manage read receipts and activity sharing. With Assist, only the content and task you choose are sent to OpenAI.

ChatShyld is not end-to-end encrypted. Authorised server processing remains possible. Read the Privacy Policy for details.
