About

Briar is a messaging app designed for activists, journalists, and anyone else who needs a safe, easy and robust way to communicate. Unlike traditional messaging apps, Briar doesn’t rely on a central server - messages are synchronized directly between the users’ devices. If the internet’s down, Briar can sync via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, keeping the information flowing in a crisis. If the internet’s up, Briar can sync via the Tor network, protecting users and their relationships from surveillance. Briar uses the Tor network to prevent eavesdroppers from learning which users are talking to each other. Each user’s contact list is encrypted and stored on her own device. All communication between devices is encrypted end-to-end, protecting the content from eavesdropping or tampering.

About

The community platform for the future. The internet was built for communities. But, as the web has changed and improved radically, community software has hardly improved since the heyday of message boards and IRC. Spectrum makes it easy to grow safe, successful online communities that are built to last. By building on Spectrum, communities become easily discoverable through search, curation, and even other community members. It also means no more managing multiple logins or playing whack-a-mole with different notifications and preferences. Everyone wins! Conversations on Spectrum are real-time chat, just like your favorite messaging app. But on Spectrum, conversations continue to provide value to more and more people over time. Every conversation gets a unique link to make it easy for people to discover, share, or save for later.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Encryption policy and offgrid compatibility are the things I like most. Although this one isn't that much popular I think it is better than signal or any other high ranked applications.

Cons

  • I didn't get any such things that should be considered as cons. But this application should be more user friendly and UI should be more attractive and easy. Calling support should be added.
