Private Chat — encrypted messaging with your circle
Aura Whisper is fully end-to-end encrypted private chat that keeps your conversations confidential and inaccessible to third parties. Text messaging is free, every message uses per-message key isolation, and you can verify a contact with a safety number to rule out interception. Photos and voice notes are encrypted before upload and get a one-line AI preview, and disappearing messages delete themselves after 24 hours, 7 days or 30 days — across 1:1 and group chats. You can also edit sent messages, delete them for everyone, react with emoji, reply with swipe, send AURI tips, ask AURA AI inline with @aura, control read receipts and online status per device, place real-time voice and video calls, drop into a group voice room, get an AI tone check before sending plus smart-reply suggestions, share a Flash status (text, photo or voice) that disappears after 24 hours, and install Whisper as its own app on your phone.
Why use Private Encrypted Chat
Text messaging is free and encrypted so only you and your contact can read it.
Compare a safety number to confirm no one is intercepting — with a key-change alert if it moves.
Media is encrypted on your device before upload; storage only ever sees ciphertext, and voice notes get a one-line AI preview before you play them.
Place encrypted 1:1 voice/video calls or drop into a group voice room, and share a 24h Flash status update in text, photo or voice.

Frequently asked questions
Is Aura chat end-to-end encrypted?
Yes. Aura Whisper uses end-to-end encryption with per-message key isolation, so only you and your intended recipient can read your messages — and each message is protected by its own key.
Is Aura Whisper free?
Yes. Text messaging is completely free and end-to-end encrypted for all users. Only optional media messages use in-app AURI.
How do I verify a contact?
Open Verify Contact to see a safety number computed from both encryption keys. Compare it with your contact in person or on a trusted call; if it matches on both phones, no one is intercepting. Aura also warns you if a contact's key changes.
Do photos and voice notes stay encrypted?
Yes. Media is encrypted on your device before it is uploaded, so cloud storage only ever holds ciphertext — the decryption key travels with the message, not the file.
What message controls does Aura Whisper offer?
You can set messages to auto-delete after 24 hours, 7 days or 30 days, edit sent texts (marked as edited), delete messages for everyone, react with emoji and reply with a swipe. Privacy toggles let you switch off read receipts and hide your online status, you can place encrypted voice/video calls or drop into a group voice room, share a 24h Flash status (text, photo or voice), and install Whisper as a standalone app from the chat page. Aura never sells your chat data and is GDPR-compliant.
Can I call multiple people at once in a group chat?
Yes. Any group chat can start a drop-in voice room — an audio call any member can join or leave anytime, encrypted peer-to-peer like the 1:1 calls, no recording, no server relay of your voice.
