Conclusion
Kik Messenger, commonly called Kik, is a freeware instant messaging mobile app from the Canadian company Kik Interactive, available free of charge on iOS and Android operating systems.
Kik is known for its features preserving users’ anonymity, such as allowing users to register without the need to provide a telephone number or valid email address.
The main attraction of Kik that differentiates it from other messaging apps is its anonymity.
To register for the Kik service, a user must enter a first and last name, e-mail address, and birthdate (which must show that the user is at least 13 years old), and select a username.
The Kik registration process does not request or require the entry of a phone number (although the user has the option to enter one), unlike some other messaging services that require a user to provide a functioning mobile phone number
Due to its anonymity nature and increased data privacy concerns, Kik allows for temporary account deactivation and permanently deleting of the accounts.
To permanently delete or deactivate your Kik account, go to the official Kik account deactivation page at ws.kik.com/deactivate, and follow the steps.
In case you want to deactivate your Kik account temporarily, go to the official Kik temporary account deactivate page and follow the steps
