BrightChat - Messaging & Call3.2.18 - App Store

BrightChat is a free, simple, and trusted messenger that connects anyone anywhere. Secure calls and messages based on state-of-the-art end-to-end encryption technology.

Privacy and security are the core of our values. Respect for your privacy and protection of your data are our top priority. Every private message and call is secured by end-to-end encryption so that no one, including us, can read your messages or listen to your conversations except yourself and the intended recipients.

Main features:

* Secure messages with end-to-end encryption
End-to-end encrypted messaging to give you peace of mind about your data security.

* Encrypted real-time audio and video calls
Crystal-clear audio & video let you hear your friends or family as if they were right there with you.

* Scheduling messages
Compose your messages ahead of time and choose when they get sent. You can send messages in advance, like friend's birthdays, or even schedule to send messages at midnight so that your friends can receive them in the morning.

* Disappearing messages
Set a timer that automatically deletes your messages after a certain interval.

* Group Chats
Use group chats to stay connected with friends and family.

Version History A stability release. Focused on calls, encrypted
group chats, and sharing.

• Calls connect reliably again. Calls that failed to go through at all on
some devices now work, incoming calls no longer stop arriving after the
app has been in the background, and group calls are steadier.

• Encrypted conversations recover on their own. Fixed the cases where a
secure chat could get stuck and stop delivering messages, and where
groups you are still a member of could appear as though you had left.

• Sharing works from everywhere. Screenshots shared from other apps now
send, and your recent photos are back in the share panel.

• Fewer crashes, including when pinning messages and when sending certain
messages.
