Summary:Messenger for secured chats and groups Summary:Messenger for secured chats and groups (end-to-end encrypted)
Description: Description:
Messenger that works via e-mail server. It is based on IMAP and QuickMSG, and Messenger that works via e-mail server, end-to-end encrypted.
therefore does not depend on an overall centralized server.
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.
