Utopia Chats - Discover communities in chats with voice and media sharing.

by
Utopia is a group chat app built for real communities. Unlike Discord or Telegram, Utopia keeps things simple while giving groups powerful tools: polls, custom themes, voice messages, embedded YouTube playback, and a discovery feed to find new communities. Groups can set rules, moderate with ease, and customize their space. Premium unlocks advanced features like custom themes and large file uploads. No clutter, no bots, no server setup — just conversations that matter.

I started building Utopia because I wanted a chat app that actually put group conversations first. Every major platform treats group chat as a secondary feature bolted onto DMs, or buries it under layers of servers, channels, and bots. I wanted something simpler — a place where communities could just talk. This project has been a labor of love for over 6 years. In that time, I've rewritten the UI stack twice — first from XML views to Jetpack Compose, then from Compose to Kotlin Multiplatform so I could bring it to iOS and desktop. Each rewrite taught me something new about what makes a chat app feel right. The core idea never changed though: give groups the tools they need (polls, moderation, discovery, custom themes) without the complexity they don't. I'd love to hear what you think and what features you'd want to see next!
