Features & Capabilities

Secure messenger (calls, video calls, media, messages, video circles) with E2E encryption. Maximum privacy. No phone number or email required to register.

HomeChat is a secure messenger with full end-to-end encryption.

Exclusively private one-on-one communication — no groups, no channels.

Who HomeChat is for:

  • Family and loved ones
  • Lawyers, doctors, entrepreneurs
  • Anyone who doesn't trust big platforms

PRIVACY

HomeChat encrypts everything — text, media files, reactions, and call signaling — right on your device. The server never stores your messages and never has access to your conversations. Decrypting data without the keys from your device is impossible.

  • Registration without a phone number, email, or personal data
  • No ads, no third-party analytics
  • No personal data collection
  • Encrypted media files are automatically deleted from the server after 7 days
  • Delete your account anytime with one tap

FEATURES

  • Text messages, photos, videos, audio, documents (max file size — 100 MB)
  • Video messages (video circles)
  • Voice calls
  • Video calls
  • Message reactions — (not available in Telegram's Secret Chats)
  • Statuses: sent → delivered → read
  • Presence indicators: online / offline / removed from contacts
  • Custom stickers, ringtones, and wallpapers
  • Light and dark theme support
  • Ability to chat during a call

SECURITY

Encryption protocols:

  • X3DH + Double Ratchet (Signal protocol) on Apple CryptoKit
  • AES-256-GCM for all data types
  • Ed25519 for signing, X25519 for key exchange
  • Forward Secrecy — compromising one key doesn't reveal past conversations

Calls:

  • WebRTC over self-hosted STUN/TURN servers
  • Direct P2P connection via STUN (when possible), TURN as a fallback channel
  • Call signaling (IP addresses, SDP) is additionally encrypted
  • DTLS/SRTP protection for the voice stream

Transport:

  • WSS (WebSocket Secure) + TLS + Certificate Pinning (SPKI) — protection against MITM attacks

On-device data:

  • Messages stored in an encrypted SQLite database
  • Session keys in the iOS Keychain (ThisDeviceOnly)
  • Media files excluded from iCloud backups
  • Session rollback protection (used encryption keys are destroyed immediately and cannot be recovered)

Push notifications:

  • Message content never enters the push payload
  • VoIP Push only carries the caller's identifier

NOTES

  • Works in Russia
  • Your account and all your chats are tied to a single device
  • Push notifications and VoIP calls work in the background
