StipaCaller is a small messenger for families, made in Finland, EU, by Lesti Software Oy. Your data is stored in Finland, and your messages are end-to-end encrypted, so even we can't read them. Call and write to the people closest to you β€” parents, grandparents, children β€” wherever they live. It's simple enough for grandparents: answer a call, look at a photo, send a voice message. Private by design β€’ Messages, photos and calls are end-to-end encrypted: only you and the people you're talking to can read and hear them, not us. β€’ No phone number needed: everyone picks a username. β€’ No ads, no tracking, no analytics, and no address-book upload. β€’ Notifications never contain the text of your messages; messages are decrypted on your phone. What you can do β€’ Voice and video calls β€’ Messages, photos, videos and voice messages β€’ Family group chats β€’ See when a call can't get through, or the other phone is on silent, and leave a message instead β€’ Missed-call notifications with one-tap call back For your whole family Start a family in the app and invite your relatives with a link or a QR code. The first 7 days are free from when your first relative joins; after that, one monthly subscription covers you and up to 5 family members. Already invited? Just tap the link you received. Permissions β€’ Microphone: for calls and voice messages β€’ Camera: for video calls and the photos you choose to send β€’ Notifications: for incoming calls and messages Terms of Use: https://stipacaller.lestisoftware.fi/eula.html Privacy Policy: https://stipacaller.lestisoftware.fi/privacy.html
