BLIP
Read full descriptionHide full description
BLIP is not a messenger. It's a disposable communication tool. Create a chat room with one tap. Share the link. Talk. Leave. Everything is destroyed β permanently, irreversibly. WHAT MAKES BLIP DIFFERENT End-to-End Encryption (E2EE): Every message is encrypted with Curve25519 ECDH key exchange and XSalsa20-Poly1305 authenticated encryption. Not even we can read your messages. Zero Server Storage: Messages are never stored in any database. Communication happens through real-time broadcast channels that vanish the moment participants leave. Peer-to-Peer Media: Photos and videos are transferred directly between devices via WebRTC DataChannel (TURN-only relay). Media never touches our servers. Screenshot & Screen Recording Guard: The app detects capture attempts and instantly blurs all content. Nothing to capture, nothing to leak. Auto-Shred Messages: Only the most recent messages stay on screen. Older messages are destroyed in real-time β no scrollback, no history. No Account Required: No sign-up, no login, no profile. Just a link and a shared password. That's it. Open Source: The entire codebase is publicly available. Verify our security claims yourself. Encrypted Community Boards: Create private, password-protected communities. All posts are stored as unreadable ciphertext β the server is blind. BLIP exists to let you speak freely and disappear completely. We don't want to keep you here. Say your piece, then leave.
