About this app

NewNode is a messenger that keeps working during internet outages, natural disasters, and government-initiated shutdowns.

Based on peer-to-peer technology (like BitTorrent), it connects mobile phones directly to each other if no cellular or WiFi connection is present. It will work in the desert or in the forest.

NewNode has no central server so it cannot be shut down or censored.

Seriously major let down! If this app really did what it claims it can I would recommend this to all my friends. But it must be in beta stage because almost no functions work correctly. Cannot get past the login screen. Takes 10 tries to get the verification code then once you put it in, it just sits there loading. Also when you try to enable the pin lock feature, after you open the app, and input the pin, it instantly shuts down the app. I've tried troubleshooting Please update me!

Its physically impossible to get past the enter a unique username screen after you verify your phone! When you enter a username, the app closes. I forced stopped and tried it again, same issue. Uninstalled and reinstalled, same issue. Id love an app like this, however unfortunately this app doesn't even let you in. Likely a bug. Am willing to try again and update review when fixed.

The app uses no server. It cant be blocked (f.e by goverment). This app is secure. All traffic is encrypted p2p. The app from a guy involved in bittorent protocol.
