01Your Photo Just Revealed Your Home Address: EXIF Metadata in Encrypted ChatsA perfectly sealed message can still hand over your home address, because smartphone photos carry GPS coordinates and device details inside the file itself. Here is what EXIF metadata in chat apps actually leaks, why end-to-end encryption does not remove it, and how to strip it before you send.Read the story 02Does Post-Quantum Encryption Drain Your Battery? Measuring ML-KEM-768 Performance on AndroidHybrid post-quantum key agreement costs a phone far less than the raw algorithm comparisons suggest, because the expensive part runs once per session instead of once per message. Here is where the CPU time, latency and bytes actually go on Android, and how to check a performance claim yourself.Read the story 03The Browser Tab Is a Different Trust Zone: Web vs Android End-to-End EncryptionLivara runs the same hybrid post-quantum encryption on web and Android, so the ciphertext is identical — but the browser tab carries a threat surface the native app does not. Here is where each one is strong, and where each one loses.Read the story 04Your Keyboard Reads Every Message You Type: Third-Party IME Privacy in Encrypted ChatsYour keyboard sees what you type before end-to-end encryption ever applies.

What is Livara Chat?

Livara is a private messenger for web and Android. It brings direct messages, private groups, calls, files, voice notes, shared Boards and optional AI tools into one place. Direct and private-group content is end-to-end encrypted on your device.

Do I need a phone number?

No. You can create an account with a username and password. Livara uses SRP for sign-in, so your password itself never crosses the network.

Is Livara free to use?

Yes. Messaging is free, with no advertising and no processing of message content for advertising. Livara AI API features require Livara AI Pro.

Which conversations are end-to-end encrypted?

Direct messages use the hybrid post-quantum LVR1 protocol, and private-group content uses LGS1 sender-key encryption. Public channels are readable by design. Routing metadata remains visible to the server. Optional server recording of calls is a separate transport-encrypted mode with a visible REC state.

Can I use Livara on both web and Android?

Yes. Open the web app in a current browser or install the Android Beta APK from the download page. The app requires Android 8.0+. Both use the same account and conversations.

How can I check the Android download?

The download page publishes a SHA-256 checksum for the current Android APK. In the Proof Lab, you can hash your downloaded file locally and compare it with that digest. Your file is not uploaded. A matching checksum checks integrity against the published digest; it is not an independent security audit.

YOUR NEXT CHAPTER STARTS WITH A HELLO

Closer people.
Bigger possibilities.

Your private messenger. Your shared plans.
Your own little corner of the internet.
