PockyAPPBETA

PockyAPP 0.9.4: the first beta of the new app

A new app from the ground up: encryption, aura and statuses, location from our own map server, tablets and updates right in the app.

From the app

We rewrote PockyAPP from the ground up. The new version is built on the Matrix Rust SDK, the same foundation Element X uses, and it thinks about privacy from the very first line.

Encryption without setup

New chats and groups are end-to-end encrypted right away. You don’t have to turn anything on or know how it works. Messages are encrypted on the phone and the server sees only unreadable data.

Location your way

Send a place exactly, within 500 metres, or just as a city. Live location keeps running with the app closed until you end it. The maps aren’t from a big company, they come from our own map server.

On a tablet and without waiting for a store

On a tablet the chat list and the conversation sit side by side, with the chat info too on a wide display. A new version announces itself in the app, shows what’s new and installs with one tap. The beta also includes aura and statuses, which show who is online or typing. What others see of that is up to you.

How to join

Sign-up during the beta is by invite. Write to reg@pokecio.com and we’ll send you a code. Download the Android app on the Download page.

Thanks to everyone who is testing. Send bugs and ideas to dev@pokecio.com.
