Messenger

The messenger is a private 1:1 chat with audio calls between people who are mutually connected via “Connected”. It is a Premium feature and can be enabled per connection.

How to chat

1. Open the “Messenger” tile.
2. Pick a connection that has chat enabled.
3. Write freely or use the quick replies.
4. If calls are enabled between you, the in-app audio call button is at the top right.

Effect on the trigger

An active reply to a message counts as a life sign and resets the timer of the person who originally sent it. Merely reading does not trigger this reset.

Good to know

• Premium on both sides for full back-and-forth: if only one side has Premium, the other can read along but not reply; calls show as “missed” there.
• Per connection: chat and calls are enabled/disabled separately for each connection.
• Real phone as fallback: if someone shares their phone number, you can also simply call them by phone.
• No health data: don’t enter special-category data (e.g. health) in the chat – end-to-end encryption follows in a later stage.
• Missed calls: appear as a note in the chat and are reported to you.
