Both offer second phone numbers for privacy. See why WIGGWIGG's complete identity platform goes further.
Hushed is a second number app with disposable numbers and call forwarding. WIGGWIGG takes the concept further by combining phone numbers with a zero-knowledge encrypted password manager and full identity management.

Hushed is just a phone number. WIGGWIGG combines phone numbers with a secure password manager, organized by identity. With Hushed, you'd need a separate password manager.
Hushed encrypts calls end-to-end, but your account data and messages aren't zero-knowledge encrypted. WIGGWIGG encrypts your identity data and passwords on your device before they reach our servers.
Hushed has no official web app. WIGGWIGG has a full web app, so you can make calls and access everything from any device with a browser.
Hushed gives you numbers. WIGGWIGG gives you identities, each with its own phone number, password manager, and contacts. Keep work, personal, and side projects completely separate.
Hushed only blocks numbers you tell it to. WIGGWIGG runs five inbound layers on every call (STIR/SHAKEN, neighbor-spoof, carrier reputation, community signals, your block and allow lists) and shows you the verdict per call in a filter log.
Hushed call forwarding is a single always-on number, same country only. WIGGWIGG ships per-day-of-week business hours, multiple prioritized rules, holiday overrides, and four action types (forward, voicemail, auto-reply, reject), all encrypted at rest.
A second number solves one problem. WIGGWIGG solves the bigger one: phone numbers, passwords, and contacts organized by identity with zero-knowledge encryption. If you want to support an independent Canadian company building that future, WIGGWIGG is where that's happening.
Hushed solves one problem well: second numbers. WIGGWIGG is building the layer underneath, where phone numbers, passwords, and contacts all connect through your identities.
Hushed charges per minute and sells lifetime plans to drive revenue. WIGGWIGG charges a simple subscription. No upsells, no minute counting. The pricing is as straightforward as the privacy promise.
Hushed encrypts your calls, but your account data sits on their servers in readable form. WIGGWIGG uses zero-knowledge encryption for identity data: passwords, contacts, and personal details are encrypted on your device. Communications are server-side encrypted on Canadian servers.
Hushed and WIGGWIGG are both Canadian. The difference: WIGGWIGG is built bilingually from the ground up in Quebec, subject to PIPEDA, with French as a first-class language, not an afterthought.
Spam filtering and call routing aren't separate features at WIGGWIGG, they're the same decision: who gets to talk to you, and when. Five inbound layers plus multiple prioritized rules plus business-hours scheduling means the right calls reach you and the rest don't.
