BitTorrent Inc, the developer of torrent sharing program, has launched an encrypted messaging app called Bleep. As per sources, the new application very much like its torrent app works on the peer-to-peer network.

First released in private alpha last year, Bleep is now available in stable form for Android, iOS, Windows, and Mac platforms. The new app offers ephemeral messaging, and free voice call among other interesting features.

Bleep doesn’t require any personal information like email address, or phone number at the time of registration. One can feed those data only if one wants, and it will be used to notify the user when your friends have joined the chatting app.

Bleep requires as little as a nickname to get started, and transmits messages, images, and voice chat directly between users, instead of through cloud servers.

The company is touting Bleep’s P2P network reliance that makes it possible for it to function without storing the files on cloud.

The company said in a statement that since there is no server anywhere, hackers can’t target a particular location to steal content.

It further told that Bleep stores information on a user’s device for a brief period of time before deleting them.

Bleep also has a feature called ‘whisper’, which seems to borrow Snapchat’s ephemeral message sending ability. In whisper the message messages disappear after 25 seconds they have been viewed.

The company assures that there is no way through which a person could retain a copy of the messages that have been viewed. The app does not even store the files in a centralized server, it said.

However, the app lacks a number of vital information like it doesn’t sync data across different devices. Furthermore, the desktop client can’t send images yet. The company gave assurance that it will very soon fix up these issues.
