Whoa! Reminds me of Firechat, which unfortunately, was discontinued! Will keep an eye on this. Hopefully it has more security features than Firechat had.
Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey is shaking things up again with a new messaging app called Bitchat.
What makes it interesting?
It works without mobile data or Wi-Fi.
Yes!
No internet at all ❌
Bitchat sends messages directly from phone to phone using nearby device connections. That means people can still communicate during internet shutdowns, network outages, emergencies, protests, or in areas with poor connectivity 🌍🔒
It is private, resilient, and independent of big networks or centralized systems.
Just another reminder that innovation isn’t always about faster internet. Sometimes it’s about removing the internet completely.
Technology keeps evolving. I love this one 👌🏾
