i'd like to see a signal protocol with chat, video call both 1-by-1 and group even with screen sharing. that's the only one with everyone can trust.

Having a private messaging app is very important to me. I like the idea shared by Daniel to have a "Discord" like messaging app. Sharing photos, private information is valuable!

I would also encourage use of the Matrix protocol for interoperability.

Yes, please develop a secure Chat feature of Proton Email. There is a very great need for a secure chat service that, I believe, Proton would do better than anything out there currently. Thank you.

I would love to see a chat messaging app that's like Discord but is fully encrypted with auto delete features. A big flaw in Discord is that everything is public and not encrypted. In fact, everything you talk about with friends or family on Discord could be subpoena'd randomly by a court case you may not have be part of. Your messages, in public servers could be sent and read by random plaintiffs which is kind of insane to me.

Very much needed. Just please don’t call it ProtonChat 😀

I would love to have a Proton alternative to Google Voice for making telephone calls and with a phone number using OBItalk or something like it, and also for texting.

veo mucho mejor desarrollar otra cosa, tal vez un buscador y navegador con VPN incorporado, podria competir contra brave, duckduckgo... yo lo veo mas util que proton chat, ya existe telegram y WhatsApp, que usan cifrado extremo a extremo y si quieres mas seguridad Signal, no veo necesidad de desarrollar otra mas

I preffer another things more important like Contact sync with phone and add task to the calendar... 2 things very easy that is very important and useful

Agreed, a messaging app from Proton would be great. I don't put much trust in the others - even Signal now as Katherine Maher is on the board of directors for Signal, and she has close ties to the deep state (https://www.city-journal.org/article/katherine-mahers-color-revolution).

I suggest using the Signal protocol for Proton Chat.
Unlike Signal, ProtonChat could use their own servers rather than rely on AWS, and I think the ability to sign up to Proton without a phone number is a major plus and a major cost save since there are no SMS registration fees.

+1 for using the Matrix protocol

Please use the matrix protocol!

Developing Proton Chat with the Matrix standard would be incredible.

I personally would LOVE a Proton Messenger app! Trust is so important these days and over the use of using Proton apps for many years now, that trust in Proton is 10/10. A messenger app of some sort would certainly fill a gap. At the very least, have Proton evaluate alternatives.

My perspective?
Whatsapp - Don't like it as it is owned by Meta and I don't trust Meta. They are also collecting a lot of data about its users.
Telegram - They hold encryption keys on their servers which means someone could decrypt your messages. So no, don't trust them either.
Signal - Data collection (what is is used for?) Have to use your phone number.

I also have it on good authority from law enforcement agencies regarding the aforementioned messaging apps. What I heard does not give me any confidence in them and so I use them sparingly.

Por favor, mensajería instantánea proton... Pagaría sin dudarlo por proton unlimited

I think whatapps fm at https://modilimitado.io/pt/fm-whatsapp-apk is also a good alternative

You may be right (chad) but the reality is that Threema, Signal, Session, Simplex, TOX, are not applications that I know have an impact, I assure you that there are people in everyday life who do not know what atox or tox is,
And proton has no comparison with Microsoft, Google, Apple, meta, which create monopolies and sell your information, I prefer to pay proton.me and that is still more robust and create a secure ecosystem and complete the private is priceless.

Top!

Have a chat app to add to the family of privacy only apps to proton.
