Awkward!! is a free iPad social app which lets you share confessions by posting a blurred video. You can use the app to post any confession but the length of the video should not be more than 10 seconds. Before posting the video, the app also lets you set the blur level as per your preference. It means that you have total freedom of selecting whether you want to reveal your identity or not. The other good part is that you can delete your confession anytime you want.
The other great thing about the app is that you don’t have to register or link any other account with the app. It means that your identity is hidden as long as you are posting blurred video (though, I am not sure how the developers store data at their end). Apart from posting confessions, you can view confessions posted by others. You can also vote for the ones which you like. If you want to share any confession, then you can do it from within the app.
Using Awkward!! iPad Social App:
As I mentioned above, you don’t need any kind of registration for using the app. So, tap app’s icon and start using it. On the home screen of the app, you will find blurred video confessions posted by other users. For each video confession, you will see the blurred thumbnail, option to share, number of votes, and option to flag it. The app has feature of auto-playing confessions. It means that whenever you stop at any confession, the app plays it automatically. You only have to tap on the screen if you want to pause the video confession, and if you would like to skip any confession then simply swipe left or right. The app stops video playback when you skip any confession. If you want to vote for any confession, then simply double tap on the screen.
In screenshot, you can see that there are two more options at top. The left one is for checking the video confessions posted by you, while the right one is for posting a new confession. To post your first confession, tap on the option at top left. On next screen, you have to select blur level using a slider. You can keep it as per your preference. After selecting it, tap on Next option to start recording your confession.

After posting any video confession, if you want to delete it anytime, then you can do so by going to menu after tapping on three bar icon at app’s home screen.
