It is based on IMAP and QuickMSG, and -therefore does not depend on an overall centralized server. +Messenger that works via e-mail server, end-to-end encrypted. + +Text messages are not only end-to-end encrypted, they also get stored on your +device in an encrypted way. Images, attachments etc. can be sent (encrypted, of +course, but since they depend on third-party programs, they are stored +unencrypted). Dib2Qm (aka Dibdib Messenger) makes use of your device's +'Download' folder. + +It is possible to use the address of your device's 'Google account', but they +insist on you explicitly allowing messenger apps: you would log in with your +browser (!), go to 'Settings', 'Forwarding...IMAP', 'Enable IMAP', 'Save', then +to 'Accounts', 'Other ... settings', '...Security', '2-Step...', 'Off', and +'Connected apps', 'Allow less secure', 'On'. + +Strange? It is easier to use an extra e-mail account for Dib2Qm, but depending +on your provider you might still have to allow IMAP services. Both, using the +account's address and using a dedicated e-mail address for Dib2Qm, have their +advantages and disadvantages ... + +Just try it out! -- on a non-critical device (And if your e-mail provider blocks +it, use a different provider.) + +If you want to do a complete re-start, go to the device's settings, clear the +app data, then open a file manager, clear the 'Download/dibdib' data, and then +you can start the app a-fresh. .
