Whether you’re organizing a surprise party, planning a marriage proposal, or running a diary note group, sometimes there are messages or chats that are not meant for prying eyes. In Threema, these chats can be marked as private and even hidden from the chat overview.
Every year on July 17, World Emoji Day is celebrated. Because emojis have become indispensable for chat communication – whether as a reaction to a message or directly in the text – we have put together a few fun facts about the little pictograms.
You use Threema, but your contacts can’t get away from WhatsApp and Co.? If this situation sounds familiar, here are a few practical tips and arguments that can help you convince those around you to use a messaging service that respects their privacy.
Earlier this week, Meta announced that WhatsApp will start to show ads to its users. We wanted to outline why online ads and data privacy are fundamentally incompatible, but as it turns out, WhatsApp beat us to it – by exactly 13 years.
There are always new attempts by governments to systematically monitor Internet users for no reason. However, mass surveillance is not only unsuitable for fighting crime, it is also completely incompatible with democratic principles and poses a considerable threat to data security.
Good news for Android users who like to chat from the computer: the beta version of Threema’s new desktop app (which was already available to iOS users) can now also be linked to Android devices.
What a nod or a shake of the head conveys in a face-to-face conversation can be replicated in Threema with the agree/disagree feature. Sometimes, however, a “thumbs up” or “thumbs down” isn’t enough to express how we feel about a message. That’s where the new emoji reactions come in.
Nearly a year has passed since the so-called “gatekeepers” had to prove their compliance with the European Union’s Digital Markets Act (DMA). Yet, some of them are still bypassing the law.
January 28 is Data Privacy Day. To celebrate this awareness day, we’ve created a sticker collection dedicated to online privacy. Show your support for the cause, and personalize your smartphone or laptop with privacy stickers!
