Temporary chats: ask, then leave no trace
For the questions you would rather keep to yourself. Nothing is saved, nothing is remembered, and Dopppel starts fresh.
Some questions you just want to ask and be done with. A gift idea for someone who shares your computer. A worry you are not ready to talk about. Something you would rather not see again in your chat list next week.
Today we are adding temporary chats. A temporary chat is not saved and not remembered. When you leave it, it is gone for good.
Nothing kept, nothing learned
A temporary chat never shows up in your chat list, and search cannot find it. Dopppel learns nothing from it, so nothing you say in there turns into a memory.
It works the other way too. Inside a temporary chat, Dopppel does not look at your memories or your old chats. It starts clean, like it just met you. That is on purpose.
A dashed edge you cannot miss
You always know which kind of chat you are in. In a temporary chat, the message box gets a dashed edge. The line under it says "Temporary chat · not saved, not remembered". Both stay there the whole time.
You choose before you send your first message. You cannot turn it off halfway. To go back to a saved chat, just start a new one.
A few things stay off in there
Because nothing is saved, some things cannot work in a temporary chat. Dopppel cannot set you a reminder, since a reminder has to be saved to work.
You also cannot add files in a temporary chat, and it does not belong to a project.
Start one from the + button
- Start a new chat, and tap the + in the message box.
- Tap "Temporary chat" before you send anything.
- Ask what you want to ask. The dashed box stays the whole time.
- Leave the page when you are done. The chat is gone.
Temporary chats are free, like everything in Dopppel.
