Updated October 12, 2026
October 2026 · version 1.5
Security
- A new encryption core built on libsignal, with post-quantum key agreement (PQXDH) for new sessions.
- Sealed sender: the server no longer learns who sent a message between contacts.
- Message padding, so length gives nothing away.
- Maximum protection: keys locked with your passcode and the phone’s security chip, with an optional password instead of six digits.
- Signed app updates.
- Photos and videos are stripped of location, camera details and dates before sending.
- Notifications without message text by default.
Privacy
- Message requests from people you don’t know.
- Who can message you, call you and add you to groups — enforced by the server.
- Calls with people you haven’t accepted always go through a relay.
Connection
- Backup entries with an encrypted tunnel when the direct route is blocked.
- A signed list of entries, and proxies you can share as links.
Chats
- Saved Messages, view-once photos and videos, polls and @mentions.
- Hidden chats, folders and send later.
- Voice messages as text (iPhone) and translation on the device.
- A redesigned app for iOS 26, with light and dark themes.
August 2026 · version 1.3
- Private chats, attachments, voice messages and one-to-one calls.
- Passcode, biometric lock, active devices and the recovery phrase.
- A website with a transparent description of the architecture and its limits.
Known limitations
- Each account lives on one phone for now.
- Calls on strict networks depend on relay availability.
- The status page is maintained by hand.
Current focus
