About Toxza

EXPERIMENTAL, MAY NOT WORK AS EXPECTED OR NOT WORK AT ALL

Toxza is a Tox client which provides at the moment basic features.

"Tox is a free (as in liberty and price) peer to peer, distributed, multimedia messenger.

Using existing technologies such as dispersed networking and strong cryptography, Tox can provide a superior instant messaging experience than current market offerings. Files can be shared as fast as you and your partner's Internet connection allows, audio calls are instantaneous, and there are no arbitrary limits to how many people you can have in a group conversation.

Tox's goal is to get secure messaging in the hands of everyone because we feel it's necessary in a world where our privacy is often overlooked; which means our efforts are free of charge with absolutely no strings attached. There are no advertisements; you are not the product and absolutely no data is collected from our users. We are here for altruistic purposes, which is why we rely on the community to help us make Tox better." (Tox wiki)

Possible future features:
- Keep session in background
- Profile pictures
- File sharing (wip)
- Audio/video calls
