About this app

Olvid is the first private instant messaging application for everyone.


# What is a "private" messenger?

It's a messenger:
- That does not push new contacts on you. You are in control: you choose who you want to discuss with. Olvid offers several ways to invite other Olvid users, either face-to-face or remotely.
- That does not require any personal data. Olvid won't ask for your phone number, for your email. Unlike your previous messenger, Olvid will never request access to your address book.
- On which you will never receive unsolicited messages or messages from an unknown source.
- Where all exchanges benefit from the same security and privacy as a real-world discussion behind closed doors. Olvid offers end-to-end encryption and end-to-end authentication by default, always, for everything you send or receive.

Olvid guarantees you safe spaces, immune to external aggression, which isolate you from the digital noise and violence of other social networks. Create groups with your family, friends and key collaborators. No spam, no advertising. You finally regain full control over your communications.

Olvid has been designed to be the best place to exchange on subjects that matter, with those who matter to you.


# Olvid - Technology

At the heart of Olvid, a 'cryptographic engine' coming from several years of research allows to mathematically prove the integrity, the confidentiality and the anonymity of your communications.

Ratings and reviews

Great messaging app and most importantly it can be used without a phone number. I might have missed the option, but is there any way to automatically compress photos or videos that you send? In order not to send full-size image or clips I have to compress them manually using a separate app. It would be great to have this as an option.

For a long time I wanted alternative to WhatsApp I tried wire but it was a disaster and other apps all of them not good enough but I discovered this amazing app on France 24 article and I tried it for almost a month the experience was really good I absolutely recommend it

This is great. Secure and no need to share email and phone numbers. The latest update allowing you to create additional profiles is amazing. Still waiting for more group features such as adding co-admin. Thanks for the great messaging app! Do you have any plans to add direct sync via Bluetooth? . . . .Thank you for responding OLVID. Looking forward to the improvements to group settings :)
