What is Briar?
Briar is a messaging app designed with a focus on security, catering specifically to activists, journalists, and individuals who require a trustworthy and confidential way to communicate. Unlike typical messaging services, Briar functions without a central server, allowing users to send messages directly from one device to another. In scenarios where internet connectivity is lost, Briar can still facilitate communication through Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connections, ensuring that essential information remains accessible even in emergencies. When internet access is restored, the application takes advantage of the Tor network to protect users and their conversations from potential observation. This integration of the Tor network effectively conceals the identities of users communicating with one another, providing an additional layer of security. Each user's contact list is encrypted and stored exclusively on their device, further reinforcing their privacy. Moreover, all messages exchanged are secured with end-to-end encryption, which defends the content against unauthorized access or modifications. Thanks to this innovative framework, Briar stands out as a flexible and reliable option for individuals who prioritize secure communications, making it an essential tool for anyone needing to protect their privacy in the digital age.

Most powerful messenger on earth
Date: Sep 13 2021SummaryThis is better than best. Calling support at least voice calling feature should be included. And UI design should be more polished.
PositiveEncryption policy and offgrid compatibility are the things I like most. Although this one isn't that much popular I think it is better than signal or any other high ranked applications.
NegativeI didn't get any such things that should be considered as cons. But this application should be more user friendly and UI should be more attractive and easy. Calling support should be added.
