How to See Who Sent You a Message on The Sarahah

The biggest feature of the mobile app Sarahah is the fact that the messages sent are anonymous. So naturally, messages received by users may not be as nice or as “constructive” as recipients may foresee them being. This will cause some users to want an answer to the question “how do I see who sent me a message on the Sarahah app?” The answer to this question is quite simple. There is no way to see who sent you a message on Sarahah. There are a few sites that claim to disclose who exactly the author of messages on Sarahah were. These sites are unfortunately untrustworthy. These sites stand to benefit from your account information and may use your account for things that you do not want your information attached to. The only way to see who sent you a message is to ask your friends or hope that the author will reveal himself or herself. In a statement made by the creators of Sarahah, it is clearly stated that there is no way that the authorship of messages sent in the app will ever be revealed, unless the author of the message lets the recipient know.

Can Other Users See Messages That I Sent on Sarahah?

Within the Sarahah app there is a screen that displays messages that you have sent to other users. This page is located on your profile and looks like this:How To Use The Sarahah App - How To See Who Sent You a Message

The presence of this screen brings up the big question “can other users see messages that I have sent on Sarahah?” The answer to this question is no. There is no way for other users to see messages that you have sent through the app. This continues the statements made by the app that state that Sarahah is one hundred precent anonymous and nobody will know who sent them a message. The feature that displays messages that you have sent is for your reference only and cannot be accessed by any other users.

Sarahah is a very interesting concept and allows users to let others know how they feel without the awkwardness of being attached to the message. This service is great for letting someone know how you feel about them. A big discussion with this app is the possibility for their to be a lot of cyber bullying conducted on the app. Although this is a concern, victims of bullying always have the ability to report messages that contain hurtful content. Sarahah also allows its users to remove their account from search results as well as block messages from unregistered users.

The idea behind Sarahah fills a niche that allows users to get good honest feedback from their friends, coworkers, and even family. The anonymous atmosphere allows for message authors to be honest without fear of the author knowing what they think. I definitely recommend giving Sarahah a try. If you are sensitive to the truth and people’s honest opinion, steer clear of Sarahah. Comment below what you think about the Sarahah app!
