SimpleX Chat: secure messenger

SimpleX - the first messaging platform without user identifiers of any kind (not even random numbers) - 100% private by design!

Security assessment by Trail of Bits: https: //simplex.chat/blog/20221108-simplex-chat-v4.2-security-audit-new-website.html

SimpleX Chat features:

- end-to-end encrypted messages, with editing, replies and deletion.

- disappearing messages with mutual agreement of both conversation parties (or enabled by group owners).

- multiple chat profiles.

- incognito mode - unique to SimpleX Chat.

- sending end-to-end encrypted images and files.

- instant voice messages also end-to-end encrypted.

- live messages they update for all recipients as you type them, every few seconds - unique to SimpleX Chat.

- single-use and long-term user addresses.

- secret chat groups - only group members know the group exists and who is the member.

- end-to-end encrypted audio and Video calls.

- connection security code verification, for contacts and group members to protect from man-in-the-middle attacks (e.g.
invitation link substitution).

- end-to-end encrypted push notifications.

- encrypted portable chat database - you can transfer your chat contacts and history to another device.

- animated images and stickers (e.g., from GIF and PNG files and from 3rd party keyboards).

SimpleX Chat advantages:

- privacy of your identity, profile, contacts and metadata: unlike any other existing messaging platform, SimpleX uses no phone numbers or any other identifiers assigned to the users - not even random numbers.
This protects the privacy of who you are communicating with, hiding it from SimpleX platform servers and from any observers.

- complete protection against spam and abuse: as you have no identifier on SimpleX platform, you cannot be contacted unless you share a one-time invitation link or an optional temporary user address.

- full ownership, control and security of your data: SimpleX stores all user data on client devices, the messages are only held temporarily on SimpleX relay servers until they are received.

- decentralized proxied peer-to-peer network: you can use SimpleX Chat via your own relay servers and still communicate with people using pre-configured or any other SimpleX relay servers.

- fully open-source code.

You can connect to anybody you know via link or scan QR code (in the Video call or in person) and start sending messages instantly - no emails, phone numbers or passwords needed.

Your profile and contacts are only stored in the app on your device - relay servers do not have access to this information.

All messages are end-to-end encrypted using open-source double-ratchet protocol; the messages are delivered via relay servers using open-source SimpleX Messaging Protocol.
