Following several reports surrounding its lack of security, Nothing Chats is gone from the Play Store
  • Nothing Chats, a rival to apps like Beeper and AirMessage, advertised itself as a secure platform for sending messages to iMessage users.
  • However, less than 24 hours after its launch, investigations into the app revealed that Nothing Chats logged every message in plain text and stored unencrypted data, including text messages, images, videos, and more, making it a significant privacy and security risk.
  • The company removed the app from the Play Store following these complaints, citing “several bugs” that need fixing.

    I agree with the teenager thing, my sister is in highschool and she thinks apple is the world cause she’s concidered uncool in group for having an iPhone 12

    Me being 10 years older I thankfully missed that “life revolves around the brand” train but, it’s still relevant during family gathering because they don’t wanna use my s20+'s camera for pictures preferring to use an iPhone then struggle to share images with everyone

      As for photo sharing - this is just wild. A girl on the train took pictures of me and when I tried to get them sent to me, it turned out iPhones can’t do a thing as basic as sending a file by Bluetooth to an Android! It’s so weird that we had to wait until we get to an area with cell reception and do so by a messenger… despite being right next to each other!
