After bans from Apple and Google, Sarahah debuts Enoff, an iOS app for anonymous feedback at work
Sarahah, the anonymous messaging app founded in Saudi Arabia that became an unexpected viral sensation with teens, clocking up over 300 million registered users before getting banned by Apple and Google over bullying, is making a return to the App Store — but not as you might think.
The startup has launched a new, free iOS app called Enoff (pronounced "enough") aimed at organizations, tapping into the wave of employee activism and speaking out about unfair practices to provide a way for people in a team to give anonymous, one-way feedback to bosses and human resources reps. An Android version of Enoff is coming "very soon," according to CEO and founder Zain al-Alabdin Tawfiq.
Available also on the web, the aim is to provide a way to give feedback in cases of harassment, corruption and other tricky workplace situations where employees might fear repercussions for speaking out.
Easy way to monetize app: allow bosses to pay to unmask users.

Agreed. I jailbroke my phone and install APKs manually. Though it is a bit of a challenge to ensure that I get clean versions of apps.

Fine, but where do you get them from such that you trust the source?
The Nord VPN android app [nordvpn.com] can be downloaded from their Android download page with a link to the apk [onelink.me] through "go.onelink.me" whatever that is..
Is there a database somewhere for apk files? e.g.
* K9 Mail
* Firefox Browser (android)
* AdBlocker browser
* Colornote
* Duckduckgo browser
* Ghostery browser
* Sliepnir
* 3G watchdog
* Ghost commander
Etc etc.
All the apps you'd normally get from the google store.
It's nice that OpenVPN for Android [github.com] is on Github.
Right now after I format I load Google Store with all of the crappy nasty device sucking services that come with it, get the apps that I want, and then disable all of the Google from my device.
