‪For those people who have asked for password protection for your private chat groups, it’s on the way! It’s should be available in the 1.3 release this week. You can rest assured that no will be allowed to connect to your device if they don’t know both the connection group name and password you have set in the settings.

As a side note, your connection group password is stored securely using your login credentials. Like your login password, it’s stored in a way that is not reversible. So if you’re unsure the correct password is set, then you can just simply set it again (by overwriting what is currently set) with what is known to be the password shared with everyone.

WhyChat just got easier! The 1.2 updates were just released on the App Store. Now you can just select “Connect to Anyone” in Settings and WhyChat will start searching for other nearby users who have also enabled Connect to Anyone. ‬ http://whychat.app/download

WhyChat? Because now you can chat with any nearby iOS users regardless of whether you have cellular or broadband connectivity. So how does it work? Well, WhyChat is an ad-hoc chat messaging application that allows you to form a local chat group over Wi-Fi whether you have access to a Wi-Fi router or not. When you don't have access to a Wi-Fi router, you just directly connect with other iOS devices using Wi-Fi connections that don't require a router. And what's even better, you don't need to set up anything besides your chat group name. The app sets everything else up for you. All you need to do is tap the Connect button after logging in and selecting your chat group name.

The primary time when WhyChat is useful is when there is no cellular connectivity or no internet connectivity on your Wi-Fi network. One of more common times when this happens is when traveling on an airplane with friends, family, or business colleagues. With WhyChat, you could be seated anywhere on the plane and still be able to chat with each other and NOT need to pay for the airlines internet service since everything is local. On top of that, everything is really fast since you don't need to send your messages and file attachments off the plan and to cloud first. Your data never actually leaves the plane. Ok, so the airplane thing us useful, but you could literally use it anywhere: home, school, work, lab environments, mancaves in basements, remote resort/camping areas, regions of the world with poor cellular coverage, etc.

So now you're connected, then what? Well, once you have established links to the other nearby users in your chat group, WhyChat works similar to other chat messaging applications, but the major difference is that no information is stored or transmitted to the cloud. All messages are sent directly between iOS devices with end-to-end encryption. All of your login information, messages, and file attachments are also stored in an encrypted format on your device once received.

So what does it cost? With WhyChat, you only need to pay the one-time fee to purchase the app and you're good to go. Everything is transmitted locally either directly device-to-device OR device-to-router-to-device, so messages and attachments are sent quite quickly. It's all local! And yes, you won't find these features in other chat messaging applications. All of the major messaging applications typically require a backend cloud server to store and transmit your messages to other users as well as to gather analytics on your usage and serve up ads to you. That's another way that we're a little different. No ads and no parsing your personal data for revenue. The revenue we generate for the hard work we put into the app comes from your purchase of the app.
