You do not need a phone number to use Verum Messenger because the app is not connected to it. It has a built-in VPN and uses end-to-end encryption. Verum is designed for maximum security and anonymity; if a chat member takes a screenshot of the conversation, the other chat participant will be notified. There can be up to 10 000 people in a group chat. The application itself supports 12 different languages.
A chat is accessible only to the chat members themselves, no one apart from the recipients can see the messages: photos, audio, or video. Even if somebody accesses your phone, they will not be able to use the application; Verum allows you to put a password to log in, protect your data with Touch ID or Face ID. Communication remains completely confidential, the app has a feature for clearing messages. The user can set the frequency of deletion.
Create an account without a phone number
You do not need to use your phone number to create an account. The application requires a login and password only. The user is automatically provided with a Verum ID so that he can add new contacts. No other contact can reveal your identity and phone number. You can add an email address, but it is optional.
End-to-end (E2E) encryption
End-to-end (E2E) encryption is used in every chat by default. Even the creators of the application cannot access users’ conversations. End-to-end encryption technology is a method of the information transmission where only the users participating in the chat can view the messages. As a result of using this method, other people cannot obtain cryptographic keys.
There is no need to worry about security and data loss. If you install the messenger on another device or restore it, you can easily get all the data back using the restore key. It is issued in the settings.
Creating groups of up to 10,000 people
Not only two people can communicate in the messenger. You can also create a chat room with up to 10,000 participants. Communication is carried out using the same end-to-end encryption.
Audio/video calls
You can exchange text messages, photos, videos, audio, and other files in the app. All of this data is encrypted, keeping communication completely private.
Useful features of Verum
Compared to other similar anonymous messengers, Verum has many unique features that make it different:
- It has a built-in free VPN, which allows you to access restricted data limited by the area of your residence. The user can automatically unblock any virtual resource without installing a separate VPN. In addition, it allows the user to hide the IP address of their device, so even your location will remain secret.
- A notification if a chat participant takes a screenshot of a conversation. You’ll know right away if the person with whom you’re chatting decides to save some part of your conversation.
- A notification if the other person copies a chat message.
- A notification if the other user forwards a message, photo, picture, and other files that have been sent to the chat room.
- Deletion of messages on a timer (for all recipients at the same time). The user can set the timer for a suitable interval – from 15 seconds to 1 week.
- Deletion of a chat or a group. There are two options for deleting, you can choose the “delete for me” or the “delete for all” option. The chat or group will be deleted for all participants if you choose the second option.
- Clearing account data with a single button. The user can select: “Clear all chats and calls” or “Clear all chats, calls, and contacts”.
- A Verum Chess game. There is a game built into the application so that you can spend time waiting for the other person to reply.
Verum, a messenger that guarantees privacy
The Verum Messenger app is currently available only for iOS users. This app is not free, but it is much better than its free analogs in terms of security.
