SimpleX Chat - a private and encrypted messenger without any user IDs (not even random ones)! Make a private connection via link / QR code to send messages and make calls.

Many users asked: if SimpleX has no user identifiers, how can it know where to deliver messages?

To deliver mesages, instead of user IDs used by all other platforms, SimpleX uses temporary anonymous pairwise identifiers of message queues, separate for each of your connections — there are no long term identifiers.

You define which server(s) to use to receive the messages, your contacts — the servers you use to send the messages to them. Every conversation is likely to use two different servers.

This design prevents leaking any users’ metadata on the application level. To further improve privacy and protect your IP address you can connect to messaging servers via Tor.

    I’ve been using it few weeks now. Seems very promising! Lacks desktop web app but is in the works.

        I’ve tested all. Text, audio video. You need to have though an updated version of Android (in case you use Android) for calls to be e2ee. App is under heavy development and devs are super helpful.
