About

Dust gives you control over your digital life. We believe online life is real life, so only you should control what is known about you. Our users are protected—free from worry of prying eyes, data mining, sketchy hackers, and the paranoia that your words could come back to haunt you—freedom for everything that makes you. For everyday texting and sharing photos with friends, family and colleagues, or exchanging more sensitive information such as credit cards, social security numbers, bank information, wire transfer instructions, passwords, or medical records – Dust is the most secure private texting & messaging application. Rest assured knowing Dust conversations are heavily encrypted and not accessible by anyone, not even us. You can even erase messages off their phone in real-time. Once a message is deleted on Dust it can never be recovered, period. Send secret texts.

About

The first messenger without user IDs. Other apps have user IDs: Signal, Matrix, Session, Briar, Jami, Cwtch, etc. SimpleX does not, not even random numbers. This radically improves your privacy. Many users asked: if SimpleX has no user identifiers, how can it know where to deliver messages? To deliver mesages, instead of user IDs used by all other platforms, SimpleX uses temporary anonymous pairwise identifiers of message queues, separate for each of your connections — there are no long term identifiers. You define which server(s) to use to receive the messages, your contacts — the servers you use to send the messages to them. Every conversation is likely to use two different servers. This design prevents leaking any users' metadata on the application level. To further improve privacy and protect your IP address you can connect to messaging servers via Tor. Only client devices store user profiles, contacts and groups; the messages are sent with 2-layer e2e encryption.
