CarrierPony: PGP Chat & Files

CarrierPony is a private messenger and secure file transfer app with real, end-to-end PGP encryption. No phone number. No email. No account. Just you, the people you trust, and encryption that actually works. WHY CARRIERPONY? Most "secure messaging" apps still ask for your phone number and store your contact list. CarrierPony asks for nothing. Your identity is an OpenPGP key pair created on your device, and your private key never leaves it. REAL PGP ENCRYPTION * Every message and file is end-to-end encrypted with OpenPGP * Messages are encrypted on your device and only decrypted on your contact's device * The relay server forwards sealed envelopes only: no names, no contents, no plaintext * Built on PGPonyCore, our open-source cryptography engine anyone can inspect NO ACCOUNTS, NO TRACKING * No phone number, email, or sign-up required * No contact list upload, no ads, no analytics, no trackers * A random per-install ID is all the relay ever sees SECURE FILE TRANSFER * Send photos, documents, and files of any type, encrypted end to end * Files are never uploaded in readable form, and never scanned PAIR WITH A QR CODE * In person: one QR code scan pairs both phones * Remote: send an invite over any channel you trust * Verify contacts with a safety number STAY IN CONTROL * App lock with Face ID or Touch ID * Encrypted identity backups protected by a passphrase only you know * Private, per-contact nicknames only you can see * Reset and erase everything, any time RELAYS AND NETWORK * By default, sealed messages go through the CarrierPony relay at api.carrierpony.com * Run your own CarrierPony relay and point the app at it in Settings * Optional Nostr transport, off by default: when turned on, each sealed message is also posted to public Nostr relays, which see opaque content and your IP address CarrierPony is part of the Pony family of privacy apps, alongside PGPony, AgePony, QuorumPony, and RelayPony.
