Description

ChatSecure is a free and open source messaging app that features OTR and OMEMO encryption over XMPP. You can create new accounts on public XMPP servers, or even connect to your own server for extra security.
Unlike other apps that keep you stuck in their walled garden, ChatSecure is fully interoperable with other clients that support OTR, OMEMO and XMPP.
ChatSecure only uses well-known open source cryptographic libraries to keep your conversations private. Other apps may make claims about 'military grade' security but, without publicly auditable source code and verifiable end-to-end encryption, you cannot be truly safe.
* XMPP with TLS certificate pinning.
* OTR for verifiable end-to-end encryption and forward secrecy.
* OMEMO for a mobile-friendly alternative to OTR.
* SQLCipher to locally encrypt conversation logs.
* Free and Open Source: https://github.com/chatsecure/chatsecure-ios

ChatSecure Messenger Reviews

Sent messages won’t sync across devices

Abraham2010 on

United Kingdom

Sent messages won’t sync across devices with the same account. No idea why.

Some pesky bugs, missing features

Hykka Mitkusska on

United Kingdom

Hi Chris, I like the program, although 1) group notification switch does not make a change (at least in omemo mode); 2) turning off/on trusted keys switch most times does not click, perhaps too much on side on iPhone SE 2016; 3) sometimes keyboard is on, but scroll is below, going to settings and back works until another chat open or kill program to unbug; 4) no image, video, audio saving, might be implemented as hold to share file (iOS style). I like the software, 3/5 to make it better. Best wishes.

Good App but issue with notifications

PriJen on

United Kingdom

I am having an issue with receiving notifications. They’re erratic and at times don’t show up or alert unless I get into the App. I’ve tried checking all Settings - General and App specific to ensure all is ok but seems to be a problem. Is anyone looking into this issue?
