SimpleX Description

The innovative messaging platform stands out by eliminating user IDs entirely.

Unlike other applications such as Signal, Matrix, Session, Briar, Jami, and Cwtch that rely on user identifiers, SimpleX takes a different route by not employing any form of user IDs or even random numbers, significantly enhancing user privacy.

Users frequently inquire about how SimpleX manages message delivery without user identifiers.

To facilitate message delivery, SimpleX employs temporary anonymous pairwise identifiers for message queues, which are unique to each connection, ensuring that no long-term identifiers are utilized.

You have the flexibility to select which server(s) will handle your incoming messages, while your contacts will determine the servers used to send messages to them, meaning that each conversation may operate through two different servers.

This unique structure effectively minimizes the risk of metadata leakage at the application level.

In addition to this, users can further enhance their privacy and safeguard their IP addresses by routing their connections through Tor when accessing messaging servers.

Only client devices retain user profiles, contacts, and group information, while messages are secured with a robust two-layer end-to-end encryption system.

This approach not only prioritizes user privacy but also ensures a safer messaging experience overall.

    SimpleX review

    Date: Dec 14 2023

    Summary: Good. Useful. Reliable. I'm actually very impressed; I've always looked for an messaging app that would not require phone number or something similar... It seems that I have found it.

    Positive: Security. Anonymous presence. Encryption. Availability for Windows 64, Android, iOS, and even the terminal.

    Negative: Not too easy the first time. It may be a little hard to start with it when one is used to playing with another messaging app.
