The source code of Threema’s new desktop app is now publicly accessible. Consequently, the app is also covered by Threema’s bug bounty program.

Exactly twelve years ago today, on 12/12/2012, the first Threema version was published in Apple’s App Store, laying the foundation for secure and privacy-friendly mobile communication.
Instant messaging is incredibly useful, and it’s hard to imagine the modern workplace without it. But there’s more: Threema Work and Threema OnPrem can be integrated into third-party systems, and thanks to versatile APIs, process automation is a piece of cake.
