<i>ArcaneChat</i> is a friendly fork of <i>Delta Chat</i> messenger, a chat app compatible with the existing e-mail infrastructure.
ArcaneChat is a decentralized and secure messenger app that is
completely compatible with the existing e-mail infrastructure.
ArcaneChat was created with a focus on usability, good user experience, and saving data plan and comes with some different default settings than Delta Chat. Also the app usually experiments with new features and alternative paths of development that eventually might get added to the official Delta Chat client.
Some features at a glance:
💬 Reliable instant messaging with multi-profile and multi-device support.
⚡️ Sign-up easily using secure fast chatmail servers. You don’t need a phone number or any private data.
📧 Alternatively, use your existing classic e-mail address to read your inbox as chats.
🎮 Interactive mini-apps in chats for gaming and collaboration.
🔒 Audited end-to-end encryption safe against network and server attacks.

<b>WARNING:</b> Be careful when running WebXDC apps in ArcaneChat, the sandboxed webview can't currently prevent WebRTC connections, so in theory information inside the WebXDC app could be leaked and also your IP, the risk is low, for most people this is not even important, but if you are a person at risk, only use trusted apps, or use official Delta Chat.
