Hey Product Hunt community! 👋
I'm the founder of Chattick, a GDPR-aligned, privacy-first mobile messaging app for Android and iOS. After a long development journey, we've finally reached closed beta, and I'm excited to share what we've been building! 🚀
Why I built Chattick
I've always believed that privacy shouldn't be a luxury or something we have to sacrifice just to stay connected.
Most messaging platforms are free, but many digital services rely on advertising, tracking, or monetising user information. I wanted to explore a different approach.
What if we could build a messaging platform where users are the customers, not the product?
That's the idea behind Chattick.
Our vision is simple: No ads. No selling user data. Privacy-first communication. More control over your information.
We're building Chattick around encrypted communication, minimal device permissions, GDPR-aligned privacy principles, and a subscription-led business model.
We've also introduced something different: rewards and incentives, alongside private and group messaging, voice/video calls, virtual gifts, referrals, contests, and personalisation.
What feedback would help us most?
We're still improving the product, and I'd genuinely appreciate your feedback on:
First impressions: Is Chattick's value proposition clear and compelling?
Onboarding: Is registration and account setup straightforward?
Performance: How reliable are messaging, media sharing, and voice/video calls?
Privacy & security: Are the privacy controls understandable? What would make you trust Chattick?
User experience: What feels confusing, unnecessary, or missing?
Business model: Would you consider paying for an ad-free, privacy-focused messaging service?
Bug reports, criticism, and suggestions are all welcome. I'm especially interested in what doesn't work well.

Building Chattick has been a challenging but rewarding journey. We're not claiming to have everything figured out, and there's still work to do before a public launch.
I'd love to learn from this community and use your feedback to make Chattick better.
One question I'd particularly love your thoughts on: What would convince you to switch from your current messaging app to a privacy-first alternative?
Thanks for being part of our journey! ❤️
