Ratings and reviews

Absolutely solid app! Keeps my chats organized and secure. Wish I had more friends capable of using and understanding it tho. One bug I've found is that clearing a conversation causes both mobile and desktop clients to forget the name of the channel. Requires leaving and rejoining to fix... which defeats the whole purpose of clearing the conversation.

TERRIBLY BUGGY on Android the past few months to the point of unusable. While typing, text box will not reflect inputs, freeze, then dump everything that was typed, or miss letters / words dump some of the text input. Constantly freezing require hard reset. Please fix this problem! Gone on too long! Developers, fix update version! Great platform overall. Privacy not what I thought it was. All devices connected to Users can be Googled too easily.

Keybase is a fast and convenient encrypted chat and file sharing app. I really appreciate its end-to-end encryption and identity features, and uploads are impressively quick. Sadly, updates are rare and the app feels neglected, which makes me worry about its future. With proper support, it could even surpass Telegram. Such a great idea shouldn’t be wasted.
