XChat Launches on App Store with End-to-End Encryption and Grok Integration

Gate News message, April 25 — XChat, the standalone messaging app from X (formerly Twitter), officially launched on Apple's App Store on April 25. The app is now available for download and use on iOS, with the Android version coming soon.

XChat allows users to log in directly with their X account, requiring no phone number or email. The app features end-to-end encryption, ensuring messages are only visible to both parties and unreadable by the platform. Additional features include disappearing messages and support for any file type transfers.

The app deeply integrates xAI's Grok AI assistant, allowing users to summon Grok directly within the chat interface to ask questions, generate images, and summarize content without switching apps.
