Two weeks since the ban of TikTok among 58 other Chinese apps in India, Roposo, which has the same format as TikTok, has gained popularity and according to their recent announcement they expect to hit 100 million users soon.

The Gurugram-based short video sharing app has gained a lot of users but is still struggling a bit with the entire user experience, which is common among newer apps and should be resolved as time passes.

Roposo allows its users to download videos or stories posted by others and also to mix and match them, which might not suit your privacy needs as any random person will be able to download your video directly from the app. Your Roposo profile is also indexed by search engines by default and anyone searching for you on Google might see your Roposo profile.

While Roposo doesn’t offer a lot of control over your privacy, it does allow users to disable the download button from their posts, hide their account from search engines and disable mix and match of their videos. Here we’ll guide you through how to do all of the things mentioned before by accessing the privacy settings on Roposo.
