Global P2P Chat
Coming Soon
Global P2P chat by public key exchange is currently in development. This page documents the planned feature.
How it will work
- Open peerChat and copy your public key
- Share it with anyone — via Signal, email, in person, anywhere
- They enter your public key in peerChat
- A direct peer-to-peer connection is established
- Chat directly with no server in the middle
Why public keys
Your public key is your permanent identity in peerChat. No username, no phone number, no email — just a cryptographic key that is uniquely yours.
Privacy
The connection is direct. No peerChat server is involved at any point. Not even for the initial handshake.
