Call encryption

How Zaplog encrypts voice and video calls end to end, and when a call isn't encrypted.

Zaplog voice and video calls, one-to-one and group, are end-to-end encrypted. Only the people on the call can hear and see it.

How it works

Each call gets its own random key. The key travels inside an end-to-end encrypted chat message to the people being called, and is kept only in memory on their devices. Zaplog's servers relay the call's audio and video, but can't decode them.

The call screen shows End-to-end encrypted when a call is encrypted.

When a call isn't encrypted

If the person you call has no registered device, for example because they haven't opened a recent version of Zaplog, the call connects without end-to-end encryption rather than failing. The call screen doesn't show the encrypted label in that case.

Voice channels in ZapRooms are not end-to-end encrypted.

Recording

Zaplog doesn't record calls, and has no call-recording feature.
