#Conversations Conversations is an open source XMPP client for Android 4.0+ smart phones

##Design principles

  • Be as beautiful and easy to use as possible without sacrificing security or privacy
  • Rely on existing, well established protocols
  • Do not require a Google Account or specifically Google Cloud Messaging (GCM)
  • Require as little permissons as possible

##Features

  • End-to-end encryption with either OTR or openPGP
  • Holo UI
  • Multiple Accounts
  • Group Chats
  • Contact list integration

###XMPP Features Conversations works with every XMPP server out there. However XMPP is an extensible protocol. These extensions are standardized as well in so called XEP’s. Conversations supports a couple of those to make the overall userexperience better. There is a chance that your current XMPP server does not support these extensions. Therefore to get the most out of Conversations you should consider either switching to an XMPP server that does or - even better - run your own XMPP server for you and your friends. These XEPs are - as of now:

  • XEP-0198: Stream Management allows XMPP to surive small network outages and changes of the underlying TCP connection.
  • XEP-0280: Message Carbons which automatically syncs the messages you send to your desktop client and thus allows you to switch seamlessly from your mobile client to your desktop client and back within one conversation.
  • XEP-0237: Roster Versioning mainly to save bandwith on poor mobile connections

##FAQ ###Security ####Why are there to end-to-end encryption methods and which one should I choose? In most cases OTR should be the encryption method of choice. It works out of the box with most contacts as long as they are online.
