What is AChat for?

AChat is for keeping up with the people you choose: personal chats, groups, communities, and anonymous rooms when you'd rather not use an account.

It runs in your browser and on Android.

There's no phone number to hand over: you sign in with Google, pick a username, and friends find you by that username, an invite link or a QR code.

Personal chats and private groups are end-to-end encrypted, so they can be read only on the devices of the people in them.

AChat's moderators see a message only if someone in the chat reports it.

What doesn't AChat promise?

It doesn't promise that anonymous means untraceable, that you can make calls, or that a chat never records where you are.

Anonymous rooms don't need an account. That isn't the same as being untraceable.

Anonymous mode doesn't promise that no one can identify you.

AChat is for messages. It doesn't make voice or video calls.

Some chats record location. A chat can turn on device and location history, and it tells you what it records before you enter.

Privacy

Used AChat before?

Your anonymous room links still open, with their messages and kept rooms.

AChat now has personal chats with people you know, groups, communities and status, alongside anonymous rooms.
