Tesseract Network

Tesseract β€” private messaging that leaves no trail. No accounts. No phone numbers. No cloud history. Add a friend with a one-time invite code, pick an emoji for each other, and start talking. Every message is end-to-end encrypted; the relay only ever sees opaque bytes. Your identity lives in this device's secure keychain. Reinstall the app and it's gone β€” nothing is recoverable, from us or anyone else. What you get for free β€’ End-to-end encrypted 1:1 chat (X25519 + AES-256-GCM) β€’ Emoji-based contacts instead of names or numbers β€’ Invite codes that expire in 24 hours or on first use β€’ Notification Disguise β€” 10 preset alt-icons and lock-screen texts β€’ App Lock with PIN + optional silent Duress PIN β€’ Minimalist brutalist interface built for speed Unlock TESSERACT PLUS for the full suite β€’ TOR ROUTING β€” every request tunneled through Tor; the relay sees an exit node, never you β€’ GHOST TEXT β€” messages your eye reads but cameras average away β€’ PIXEL SHATTER β€” text realigns only at the owner's viewing angle β€’ CUSTOM TIMER β€” self-destructing messages that vanish from both phones β€’ PHOTOS Β· VIDEOS Β· GIFS β€” end-to-end encrypted media β€’ 30-DAY MAILBOX β€” missed messages held longer Tesseract does not have a "delete for everyone" button because there is nothing to delete. Messages don't live on a server. The relay is a dumb pipe.
