Launched in November 2021, NGL: Anonymous Q&A finally, in early June, his wings went viral. Largely thanks to Instagram users who have added a link to the DeepMoji app to their bios and stories.
The application is aimed at teenagers and young people who “they don’t have a place to share their feelings without judgment from friends or social pressure.” Its creators believe that being anonymous should be fun, but at the same time safe to express their “feelings and opinions without shame”.

What is NGL: anonymous questions and answers?
“This is a fresh take on anonymity” according to its developers, DeepMoji, a small group of designers and engineers based in Venice Beach, California. “NGL” is Internet slang for “I’m not going to lie.” The free app allows users to incognito “share their heartfelt feelings and opinions” with someone who has embedded a link to the app in a story or bio.
NGL: Anonymous Q&A also has in-app purchases that allow users to receive unlimited hints about who the message is from for $1.99, $6.99, or even $9.99. The app is available worldwide, and its creators are working to translate it into more than 50 languages in the coming months.

How to add NGL: anonymous Q&A link in Instagram Story or Bio?
Adding an NGL Link to Your Instagram Bio or Story not a very difficult task just like you would add any other.
First of all, launch the NGL application and copy the NGL link. Then open your Instagram account. Create a new story by swiping left, then tap the sticker emoji. It will be the second icon in the top right corner. Now click on the link sticker, then paste the information in the “Add link” field. Finally publish the story and you’re done.
For your bio, grab the link from the NGL app again, but this time in the Instagram app, go to your profile. Click “Edit Profile” and paste your NGL link into it.
To access your messages, click on the NGL inbox and the messages you received will be displayed.

Is NGL: Anonymous Q&A safe?
DeepMoji says that they “use world-class AI content moderation” that can “filter out the bad stuff”. The system uses rule-based character pattern matching algorithms and deep learning that can detect and remove offensive language and bullying. This concerns the semantic meaning of emoji. Their technology scans the web for contextual emoji usage so they can keep up with trends that are constantly evolving.
However, from a quick search for comments about the app, it seems some nasty comments can still get through.
But is it really anonymous?
As mentioned earlier, in-app purchases allow you to access unlimited hints about who sent you a message. For $1.99, $6.99, or $9.99 you can access hints, but they are fairly general, such as what device or where the message was sent from. Again, online comments say not to shell out.
