I've been using Briar to communicate with family and I really like it. It is a peer-to-peer encrypted messaging app and you can even create private groups, forums and blogs with it! The messages are stored securely on your device and not in the cloud. You can connect with your friends through Wi-Fi, data or Bluetooth. There's no voice, video or file exchange support, though. It's only a great and secure text app. I really like it! Have you tried it? What are your thoughts about it?
