I've built a private contacts app that I can trust. It is open source, does not collect any data, and stores contacts in encrypted form, hidden from other apps.
I ve been working on a messaging app, which is probably the last thing the world needs right now. But I m approaching it from a completely different angle. Most messaging apps today start the same way. You sign up with a phone number or email. That one step connects everything: your identity, your contacts, and the platform. After that you start getting: suggestions, random messages, spam, and sometimes people you don t want to hear from. I started thinking about this differently. What if a messaging app didn t ask for anything at all? No phone number, No email, No SIM card, No username If there s nothing to identify you, there s no way to find you.
That means:
No one can randomly message you, No contact syncing, No people you may know , No spam or unwanted outreach
The only people you talk to are the ones you allow. Your contacts become your whole world inside the app. The idea is simple. You shouldn t have to block people. They shouldn t be able to reach you in the first place.
