Ezza is by far the most secure way to communicate because it decentralizes chat and file sharing, thereby significantly minimizing the chances of your data being compromised or hacked. Most chat and file sharing apps give your data to a middle man, known as the cloud. The cloud saves your data. Sometimes insecure. Sometimes indefinitely. The cloud is where most data is compromised and data breaches occur. Why risk your sensitive data? The safest and most secure way to send something, is to hand it to the person it's meant for. Not by giving it to some stranger, in the cloud. No matter how secure they say the cloud is, someone will always have the key. Ezza may never replace your favorite messaging apps you already use, however, Ezza does offer you a safe option to share your most sensitive messages and files. The proprietary technology behind Ezza connects you directly to your contact through a ‘Secure Session’, similar to a phone call. You simply initiate a session with one of your contacts, at which point their Ezza app will notify them to join the secure session. Once they join the secure session, the two of you will be directly connected to each other. Any data transferred in that secure session will never be stored in the cloud. Ever. Create your Free Ezza account today by selecting a unique username, then provide your email address and create a password. After that, update your Ezza profile by providing your name and summary about yourself, this will help others find you on Ezza should you choose to make your profile public. Invite others to join you on Ezza by sharing your unique ‘Ezza Profile Link’ or ‘Ezza QRCode’. You may also search for someone through Ezza’s public directory. Everything is secure, peer to peer, and never saved in the cloud: • Chat messages • Photos • Videos • Documents • Audio recordings • Web links • Voice calls Ezza is free to use, as much as you want. In order to keep it free, we include as little advertisements as possible. Ezza also offers a Premium Account that removes these advertisements and enables encrypted transfers for even more added security in your secure sessions. You can cancel your Ezza Premium Account subscription anytime through your iTunes account settings, or it will automatically renew. This must be done 24 hours before the end of any subscription period to avoid being charged another fee. Subscription payments will be charged to your iTunes account at confirmation of your purchase and upon commencement of each renewal term.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: FlyTexting at 5.0 against Ezza's 4.5. Ezza's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (21 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Ezza sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.49 per month and FlyTexting sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
FlyTexting holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ezza has 21 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Ezza ships an update weekly, FlyTexting every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 4, 2026 and October 3, 2026 respectively.
