About qTox

A New Kind of Instant Messaging

With the rise of government monitoring programs, qTox provides an easy to use

application that allows you to connect with friends and family without anyone

else listening in. While other big-name services require you to pay for

features, qTox is totally free, and comes without advertising.

Nowadays, every government seems to be interested in what we're saying online.

qTox is built on a "privacy goes first" agenda, and we make no compromises.

Your safety is our top priority, and there isn't anything in the world that

will change that.

Instant messaging, video conferencing, and more.

Messages: At your fingertips. You're always in the loop with instant encrypted messaging.

Calls: Stay in touch. Make free and secure qTox to qTox calls.

Video: Seeing is believing. Catch up face to face with a secure video call.

qTox is a free and open source software, built by and for the users!

Security: qTox takes your privacy seriously. With leading-class encryption,

you can rest assured knowing that the only people reading your messages are

the ones you send them to.

Ease of Use: Unlike other secure messaging solutions, qTox does not require

you to be a computer programmer to use it. qTox comes out-of-the-box with an

easy-to-use interface that allows you to focus on your conversations.
