About this app

Skred is the first secure peer-to-peer instant messaging app - No need for an email address or phone number to use it.

Skred is free, without subscription, without a provider, without a SIM card, and without leaving a trace.

Skred is developed based on privacy-by-design and leverages the highest levels of authorization encryption. Skred enables an anonymous, unique and secure connection with each of your contacts. Only the two participants in a call can communicate with each other excluding anyone else.
With an interface that is easy to use without impacting the learning experience, Skred enables easy exchange of messages, images, videos, voice calls and video calls.

The SkredBoard, which is accessible by simply swiping down, allows for generating many identities that are separated from each other for absolute confidentiality. You can also use groups to exchange with several friends at once.

When you delete a message on Skred, it also disappears from the mobile phone of your caller.

All exchanges are encrypted from start to finish, from mobile to mobile. They are not stored on any server. The encryption technologies are open source and based on the work of hackers and hacktivists of the Guardian Project.

Skred originated from the Skyrock Group, which in turn came from the free radio movement in France. It defends freedom of expression on the air and on the internet.

With Skred, you are free!

Ratings and reviews

I've only used this app for 2 days, but it works flawlessly for me. I don't have any issues and it works just fine. It doesn't require any phone numbers, emails, and if you want to add or talk to people, all you have to do is scan (or have the other person scan) a QR code on a phone then you'd be able to talk to them. This works well with my friends that don't have SIM cards or anything, so I definitely recommend! Good app. :)

Im all for supporting developers but subscription is just too expensive for things that are free in other similar apps. Videos are backward.. sharing media doesn't always work- you have to keep app open until media is delivered.. if you close the app, it stops sending, and you have to start all over again. Not sure if the issues are solved in the paid version. Whatsapp works flawlessly

The best privacy app out there, from a security perspective. On the user interface level, it is very simple. For example, reactions are limited to only 8 pre-selected emojis (this is no WhatsApp). However, on the bright side, I am glad it doesn't have gifs like WA or TG because gifs can contain all kinds of stuff (Spyware etc). I like that they keep it simple, but being able to react with a wider selection of emojis to avoid misunderstandings, would be the cherry on top.
