End to end encrypted
Everything a thread can do
The controls sit with the conversation, so both sides see the same rules.
Direct messages and groups
Threads and groups that encrypt once per sender, so a busy group stays fast.
Channels
One voice to many, with a read-only mode for announcements.
Message requests
Someone you do not follow lands in a separate tray.
Slow mode
A floor on how often anyone can post.
Control over what stays
Decide how long something lives before you send it.
Disappearing messages
A timer per conversation, or gone once read. The rule belongs to the thread.
View once
A photo that opens once and leaves nothing behind.
Archive
Move a thread out of the list without leaving it.
Starred messages
Keep the address or the flight number without scrolling a year of chat.
Finding things again
