## What is Mayday Secure Urgent Messenger?

An app to send and receive JUST urgent messages. If it’s not a Mayday, it’s not important. 
We want you to find time for yourself, to be focused, to relax from all the media, and own your time. 

• ONE MESSAGE, ONE ANSWER.
Limited messaging: Mayday is only to communicate urgent situations. You can keep talking in other apps.

• MESSAGES ARE DELETED AFTER 24H.
We don’t want your data. Mayday messages are encrypted, and we don’t store them: they will be erased 24 hours after they get a reply.

• STAY FOCUSED.
 Give your notifications a rest, knowing that if there’s something important you need to be aware of right now, you will.

This is the first version and we are still polishing things up, so stay tuned for exciting updates!

## Key features

- Urgent message only communication
- Encrypted messages
- Messages deleted after 24 hours
- Reduced notifications
- Focus and relaxation
- Fast and reliable messaging

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-05-19*

Can’t give a great review because no matter how I type my number in it send an error message saying the the number isn’t formatted correctly

### 5/5 — Mensajes de trabajo

*2020-12-03, version 1.2.2*

Lo estamos utilizando en el equipo para comunicarnos solo temas importantes .
Se  pierde menos tiempo con todo tipo de notificaciones , lo recomiendo para el trabajo

### 5/5 — So useful!!

*2020-05-28, version 1.0.3*

It’s so useful for emergencies. You don’t have to deal with groups with hundreds of people’s messages either

### 5/5 — Now I feel no stress

*2020-05-28, version 1.0.3*

In my company, we used to use telegram but I also had other disturbing notifications. Now I can just turn off notifications from Telegram and other social networks and if something is really urgent people can reach me with a Mayday and I have no distractions.

### 5/5 — Imprescindible

*2020-04-26, version 1.0*

We used to have a Telegram channel just for company-wide emergency notifications, but when I see notifications in that app I don’t know if it’s something urgent or just another pet picture from other channel. This app solves that problem.
