• Private & Encrypted Messenger App
• Open-Source & Free-to-Use
• Built on Nostr

◤◢ Privacy by Principle ◤◢

Vector is a decentralized communication platform built on the Nostr Protocol, offering no-compromise encryption with zero metadata leakage and plausible deniability for all content, including texts, media, voice notes, and files, adhering to the NIP-17 standard. It natively integrates BIP-39, allowing every Vector account to function as a crypto wallet and vice versa, streamlining tasks like address sharing and payments through compatibility with native wallets like MPW. Vector leverages local, private, device-powered AI to provide practical features such as voice message transcription, language translation, and meme gif search via a decentralized relay-based index. Its resilience is ensured by community-run Nostr relays, eliminating downtime, and its fully open-source codebase—from infrastructure to protocol specs—avoids proprietary lock-in, making it unkillable and transparent.

Open-source technology developed by Formless Labs.

Many people fall under the illusion that because a company markets their app as "private" or uses fancy buzzwords like "end-to-end encryption" or "secure" that it is what was promised. We have found time and time again that these are blatant lies to ultimately and immorally grow their userbase and hopes at quicker financial success.

Understand some of the degrees of privacy that actually make apps private. There are degrees of privacy as there are degrees of decentralization and just about everything. In this infographic by Formless Labs it breaks down degrees of privacy for messenger apps on each column:

- Decentralized
- Metadata Privacy
- No KYC
- Group E2EE
- Self Hosting

Obvious benefits many people enjoy are also no advertisements and the fact that apps are free (and hopefully open-source).

Any suggestions on other fields or degrees of privacy that should be added? Let us know!

Telegram doesn't belong in a list of privacy messengers Nice work btw! Is Vector interoperable with White Noise?

Noted. Thanks again for your feedback.

You have valid points, UX is everything. Unfortunately Telegram is not a privacy-focused app, though it may be marketed that way. It has also been around since 2013, making it about 13 years old, where Vector is roughly 1.2 years old. In the meantime, we will steadily work to improve Vector.

Enjoy this infographic from Formless Labs:

Wonderful! As you can tell Vector is still in Beta and we are working daily to make improvements. If you have any other suggestions @ruralrover let us know, we are happy to hear honest feedback like yours and what all we can improve. We have quite the list of features to add and things to improve, but broken up into stages. If we get a lot of negative feedback on something or a bug is found, we shift our priority to handle it to make our community's experience better.

🟢 Vector Music Upload Demo:
ID3 Music Tag Support Added for Audio Files
*Support since v0.3.2

What are ID3 Music Tags?
ID3 tags are metadata embedded directly inside audio files (primarily MP3s) that store information about the track. Think of them as a little data packet attached to the file itself. Common fields include things like:

Title — song name
Artist — performer
Album — album name
Year — release year
Track number — position on the album
Genre — music genre
Album art — the cover image embedded in the file
Lyrics — sometimes embedded too
Comment — freeform notes

🎵Test it out: vectorapp.io

Wonderful, so your biggest feedback is about Audio playback not being comparable to migrate millions to Nostr? We appreciate the feedback and will also work on the Audio UX. There are titles now when you upload music or audio files if you are on the latest v0.3.2. Any other key points you'd like to see Vector improve?
