Wickr Me
Wickr Me is a secure private messaging app for macOS that emphasizes end-to-end encryption, message expiration, and privacy-focused communication.

Wickr Me is used by individuals and organisations seeking secure, ephemeral messaging without relying on traditional messaging platforms. The app integrates with system notifications and runs as a standalone desktop client.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWickr Me does not yet have a confirmed native Apple Silicon build. The most recent publicly available information, from December 2020, indicates the app has not been tested on Apple Silicon Macs and no native version is documented in current search results. Since we are now in May 2026 with the macOS 28 Rosetta 2 removal scheduled for September 2028 — just over two years away — contact Wickr's support team directly to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build is in development or planned before the deadline. In the meantime, your Intel build continues to work under Rosetta 2. If Wickr does not announce a native build plan soon, you should consider switching to an actively maintained alternative like Signal, which offers comparable encryption and privacy features with confirmed native Apple Silicon support and regular updates.
