Read full description

Dash Chat is in pre-alpha - please don't rely on it for everyday messaging yet. We're building a messaging app designed to keep working when the internet doesn't, and to keep your conversations private. We're not there yet - this is early, experimental software under active development. The app does not currently implement any encryption mechanism for messages. What it does today: - One-to-one direct messages. - Pair the mobile app with the desktop Dash Chat app, which runs a local server on your WiFi network. - Create group chats, add members to those groups and send group messages. - Send images and voice messages. - Peer-to-peer synchronization that doesn't require internet access. What we're building toward: - Group chat member management. - Private, end-to-end encrypted conversations. Expect bugs and breaking changes - we'd love your feedback.
