'Every friend in glitchi has a public and a private key. You "lock" the message with your friend's public key and send it their way. Once they receive it, they can "unlock" and the message with their private key.'

Well, if your target user are teenage girl, ladies, or celebrity who love sharing their boobs. i think it's to much complicated for them.

We have implemented public - private key encryption without adding friction. It is behind the scenes. Our goal with glitchi is to make sure your information stays between you and your loved ones. The system is designed such that no body else has access to it.

First you mention the "celebrity hacks" and then you say "If our servers get hacked, your messages and photos are not accessible".

As far as I know, hacking servers was not involved in the "celebrity hacks".

We are eliminating all possibilities of remote hacking. Including social engineering, which was how the celebrity hack happened.

simple to get started, focus on overall experience and fun without security getting in the way. An app for regular users :-)

Hey guys! We created this app in response to the celebrity hack of 2014.

I like the design of the website and the concept of the app sounds great.

My only real criticism is I feel like the "what is glitchi" tab should give a better description of what glitchi is. Once I scrolled through the "how it works" tab I understood more fully, but was mildly annoyed at first that I didn't know what your app did right away.

thank you for the feedback.
