Private by Design
Register without a phone number to chat, call, videochat, share files & media privately with your friends & family without being exposed to other users
PRIVATE REGISTRATION
No SIM card required. Registration without a phone number & without sharing personal contacts. Your privacy messenger for private texting. Designed to protect from stalking, surveillance and account hacking.
NO UNSOLICITED CONTACTS
Share your Zangi Number only with those you trust. Other users can't find your profile if they don't know your exact Zangi number.
Chat, call, video chat, share files and media with your friends, family and colleagues safely, without being exposed to unknown users.
NO DATA COLLECTION
Your data is stored ONLY on your phone, making Zangi a safe and secure messenger for friends chat and family messenger use. Zangi does not collect, analyze, or store your personal messages on servers. Your conversations, files, and private chat history remain under your control.
END-TO-END ENCRYPTION
Zangi operates as a secure messenger that applies strong cryptographic standards to all communication layers.
Texts, media, files, voice & video calls are encrypted with End-to-End AES-GCM 256 algorithm, so every call, secret message, and chat session stays private and protected.
QUALITY WITHOUT COMPROMISE
Zangi works where other messenger apps struggle. Minimized dependency on the speed of your internet connection.
I appreciate the privacy of an app that has end-to-end encryption and stores your data only on your device, but Zangi takes that to extremes. If I want to use Zangi on my iPhone when I’m holding that but on my iPad or Mac when I’m in front of that, I can’t. Not only do past messages not appear when you sign in on a new device (which is 100% understandable and I expected), but you’re suddenly signed out on the first device, with an “invalid account” message popping up.By comparison, Signal wants to use your existing phone number, but at least allows you to receive/read/send messages on more than one device at a time.The app asks for access to your contacts so it can see who else you’re connected to, which seems shady, since you never use your actual phone number when registering, just a seemingly random Zangi “private number.” I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt that there’s potential value, perhaps comparing the names of people in your contacts to the names of people who’ve registered, but I figure if you want someone to have your Zangi private number, you’ll give it to them.
Missing key features for an encrypted messaging app
ATalkingWalnut
First, I need to say that this is a good traditional messenger app. Links show up with nice previews, gifs auto play, "FaceTime" and the rest of the usual bells & whistles. Now, as an encrypted messenger app, it's good because it has end-to-end encryption, nothing is stored or passes through any other party. However, I did give it three stars because I believe there are at least a couple necessary features that are missing from this app. Zangi doesn't have disappearing messages, you can't put a Touch ID or Face ID lock on the app, and you can't use a decryption key of your choosing. I've also noticed some really strange behavior like random pictures from my photo album being sent when all I type is text. Also, I've found that many of my text replacements won't work if I type and send the message quickly. Honestly, I prefer the messenger app "Signal", but I have friends on both, so I use both. I will admit that Zangi has the better GUI though.
Innovative calling feature
Evanskate02
I'm impressed with the Zangi app's user-friendly interface and robust features. However, I'd love to see an enhancement that would take it to the next level: the ability to text while on a call. It would be fantastic if the app allowed users to access the chat functionality without having to end the call or put it on hold.Specifically, it would be great if the calling screen had a "Back" or "Chat" button that would allow users to seamlessly switch to texting mode while still on the call. This feature would enable multitasking, making it easier to clarify points or share information with the other party without interrupting the call.The app's current features, such as high-quality voice calls and messaging, are excellent. Adding this functionality would make Zangi an even more versatile and convenient communication tool
Why did you close my account ??
FlasshhRobert
I just want to say that I have been on this Zangi app for about 4 months now and I just put my Zangi number out there and I got a lot of responses from people all over. I was just looking to make friends and I have made a lot more friends than I thought. But there is one very special person that I really love and we have gotten pretty close. And one day when I was going to message her my account was closed and I have done nothing wrong. My whole life and all my friends are on Zangi and now I have lost everything I can’t even tell them that I am ok and I don’t know if are ok and safe. I just really want to help others out with their own issues but now its has been taken away from me. All these people think that I don’t want to be their friends anymore. I can’t even tell my girlfriend that I love her and I don’t know if she is ok or if she is safe This really hurt me deeply. I feel like I have been treated unfairly. Just want my friends that I love back in my life ??. So please may I have my account back??
