It securely add recipients by scanning their unique QR code, you message each other using Bluetooth, the same Router (WiFi) or Internet
Not only is it private, but also the most user friendly and stable P2P message app I have ever used.

This is the future of secure messaging. Decentralized, encrypted, open source, audited, anonymous, p2p, mesh, no phone number required, routed via the TOR network and wysiwyg client.
Only two drawbacks for now: - high battery usage (since no central server pushes the messages, so it is constantly listening) and only for Android currently. Otherwise, awesome project!

OSS, no personal information required, pure P2P, E2EE, Tor (Tor bridge), no 14eyes, security audit passed.
If ephemeral messages is implemented, this messenger is completely perfect.
