Hey Hacker News! Great to see this posted here.
I made this with my friend as a side project and a of proof of concept.(You can see I tried to post it here when we launched). So yeah the main point you guys are picking up on is yes you can just screenshot and the img is being inserted in plain form - so yes it's pretty easy for people to just grab your 'secret' message.
As the lovely named 'shittyanalogy' picks up on I think the use case here isn't for super secret messages or data you never want viewing. We've had people use it for coupon codes (first 100 get it) or your phone number so you don't have to post it publicy. We preach the mantra of 'don't upload things to the internet you don't want people to see'. This rule applies to snapchat, us & all the other services out there.
