Heml.is

Coming soon: An app called Heml.is which will allow end-to-end encryption of messages

Posted on July 10, 2013 by

Its name means “secret” in Swedish & that’s what it is aiming for – to keep your private moments while messaging Online, a secret.

Heml.is a wannabe Android & iOS app. We say wannabe because right now, the guys behind it have launched a crowdfunding program to release Heml.is as an app. For this, they are raising US $100,000. The 3 co-founders, Peter Sunde, one of the founders of Pirate Bay, Linus Olsson and Leif Hogberg, claim their messaging service can evade any government monitoring programs because of the built-in encryption (PRISM effect?).

Those who want to back this project can contribute as little as US $5 to buy unlock codes to install the app on their phones. Besides PayPal & the other regular Online payment systems, you can even send these guys Bitcoins. As of now, these guys have managed to raise almost US $40,000.

Heml.is will be launched as soon as the funding target is met. Even if it is not met, the co-founders say they will launch it anyway with maybe fewer features.
