Re: [Linphone-users] Are Linphone chat communications encrypted?

[Sylvain Berfini]

Hi,

Indeed you can use Linphone for E2E encrypted chat if both participants are using Linphone and if  you are using our sip.linphone.org proxy server.

In the app, simply toggle the green shield on to enable E2E encrypted chat.

Check our website for more infos: https://linphone.org/secure-communications

E2E Encryption when it comes to chats requires both participants to be using the same setup. If you send a message that's encrypted to a DID endpoint that doesn't support it, they'll get gibberish.

If you use linphone in P2P mode - over a mesh VPN (where there is
no "VPN server"), then it is e2e encrypted thanks to the VPN.

You add the raw IP6 to your address book on linphone just as easily as a
phone number or domain based sip address.
