We are looking for 40 beta testers for Midnight Messenger: 20 on iPhone and 20 on Android.
What it is
Midnight Messenger is a private messenger built on Midnight. Your identity is a zero-knowledge proof on the chain: you prove you control a key, and nothing else is revealed. Your messages are end-to-end encrypted with MLS (RFC 9420) and never go on chain. The two halves are kept apart by design.
Signing up takes a username and nothing else. No phone number, no email, no wallet, no tokens. Registration is a real transaction on Midnight, and we pay its fee, so you never see it.
It runs on Midnight’s preprod test network. It is a test: things may break, and accounts may be reset.
The ask
20 iPhone testers and 20 Android testers. Once we have all 40, everyone joins the Midnight Messenger Discord. There Sky, our Discord assistant, answers questions and collects your feedback, and the team reads what she collects.
What you need
- An iPhone on iOS 18.4 or later, with Apple’s TestFlight app installed from the App Store. Or an Android phone on Android 10 or later, with Google Play.
- For Android, you are in Canada or the United States. Google Play’s closed test is open there only.
- You are 18 or older.
- A couple of weeks. Use it like a messenger, message at least one other tester, and tell us what breaks, what confuses you and what you would change.
- You are fine with test-network resets.
- A Discord account, or you are happy to make one.
How you get in
- iPhone: we send you a TestFlight invite or link.
- Android: Google needs the email of the Google account signed in to Play on your phone, so we can add you to the closed test. Then we send you an opt-in link.
- Everyone gets their own invite code to sign up in the app. One code makes one account, so please do not share it.
How to apply
Join Discord, and tell us which phone you have: iPhone or Android.
The first 20 per platform get in. We will DM you with your invites.
Questions about how it works are welcome in Discord.
