About

KindChat

Features

Scammers, bullies, predators. Every message is checked before it reaches you. KindChat is a full-featured messenger with a conscience: every message is checked on the sender's phone before it can be sent. If the phone is unsure, cannot yet judge the language on its own, or lacks the memory for it, a KindChat server in the EU checks the text and the messages before it, without your account ID. The text is stored only if you consent via "Help improve moderation", and then pseudonymised. When the check detects harassment, hate, threats, scams or grooming, the message is stopped before it is sent. Then every message is end-to-end encrypted: no one can read it on the way. THE CIVILITY GUARD • Every message is checked on the device, before it is sent • Harassment, hate speech, threats, scams and grooming are detected and stopped • One fair standard for everyone: civil disagreement, strong opinions and dark humor are fine; harm is not TRULY PRIVATE • End-to-end encryption (Signal protocol) for every chat, group, photo and call • Encrypted 1:1 voice and video calls • Pulse: a private feed for your circle only. No strangers, no public likes, no algorithm • No tracking, no profiling. Your data is never sold, and never passed on to ad networks or data brokers YOU STAY IN CONTROL • Verify contacts in person with safety numbers • Mute, block or report; the person you report won't learn who reported • When you report, moderation sees the reported message only with your consent; the rest of your chat stays encrypted • Real humans review every account decision, with a written explanation and a right to appeal BUILT IN GERMANY • Hosted in the EU under GDPR • DSA-compliant moderation with due process • Free to use; optional Plus upgrades for comfort features KindChat is for everyone who wants strong conversations without the ugliness: families, friends, clubs and classmates. Hand your teen a phone, not a worry. Kind chats. Strong conversations. Terms of Use: https://kindchat.app/en/terms/ Privacy Policy: https://kindchat.app/en/privacy/
