Why BlatMSG

End-to-end encrypted

Messages are encrypted on your device with a Double-Ratchet protocol. Nobody in the middle — not even the relay — can read them.

No account, no phone number

Just a keypair generated on first launch. No email, no SMS, no profile to leak.

The server only sees ciphertext

The relay stores and forwards opaque encrypted blobs. Your keys stay on your device, in your OS keychain.

Encrypted ≠ verified

Compare a safety number out-of-band to confirm who you’re actually talking to. The app makes the difference clear.

Fails closed

If the protocol state ever looks wrong, the app pauses and tells you — it never quietly carries on.

Small & auditable

A tiny, deterministic core. No giant framework, no telemetry, no ads.

FAQ

Is it really private?

Yes. Every message is end-to-end encrypted with a Double Ratchet (the same family of protocol pattern used by Signal). The relay only ever transports ciphertext, and your private keys never leave your device.

Do I need an account?

No. On first launch the app generates a keypair locally. There’s no sign-up, no email, no phone number. You start a conversation by sharing a one-time invite link.

How do updates work?

The app checks for new versions and updates itself automatically — you’ll see an “Install & restart” prompt. Updates are cryptographically signed; the app only installs builds signed with the official key.

Is this a Signal replacement?

No. BlatMSG is a small private messenger for trusted friend groups — not a commercial product and not trying to compete with Signal. It uses proven protocol patterns rather than inventing new cryptography.

Mac and Linux?

Coming soon. The core is cross-platform; native Mac and Linux builds are on the way.

Is the code open?

Yes — see the GitHub link below.
