The question that always arises
"I love Solo2, but I have no one to use it with." It's the most repeated phrase. And it's normal. A private chat needs two people. If only one of them has Solo2, there is no possible conversation. But the good news is that inviting someone is so easy that you can do it in the time it takes to read this paragraph.
Quick option: send a link
Open Solo2, tap Share, copy the link. Send it however you want — email, WhatsApp, Telegram, SMS, a paper note. When the other person opens it, it will guide them to create their account and connect with you. They don't have to look for anything, they don't have to install anything from any store, they don't have to give you their phone number.
The link contains your personal linking code. It doesn't reveal who you are — it only allows someone to send you a connection request that you decide whether to accept or not.
In-person option: the QR code
If you have the phones handy, the QR is unbeatable. You show your QR code, the other person scans it, and the tunnel is created instantly. You don't even have to talk. It's the digital equivalent of a handshake.
What to say to someone who doesn't know Solo2
Don't talk to them about cryptography. Don't talk to them about servers. Talk to them about what matters to them:
- "It's a chat where no one can read what we say to each other. Not the company, not the government, not a hacker. No one."
- "You don't need to give your phone number or any real data."
- "It isn't installed from any store. It opens in the browser and works."
- "It's free for the first 7 days. After that, it costs 10 cents a day, only on the days you use it."
Most people don't need a master's degree in security to understand why that's valuable. We all have conversations that we prefer to keep private. We've all felt the discomfort of knowing that a company reads what we write to show us advertising. Solo2 eliminates that discomfort at its root.
Copy and send it
If you want to send a message to someone — by email, by social network, or by any other means — here is a text you can copy and adapt:
I'm using Solo2 for my private conversations. It's a chat where messages go directly from my device to yours — they don't pass through any server or get stored anywhere. No one can read them. Not the company, not third parties, not anyone.
You don't need to install anything from any store or give your phone number. Open solo2.net in your browser, create an account in a minute (with a made-up name if you want), and that's it.
The first 7 days are free. After that, it costs 10 cents a day, only on the days you use it. No subscriptions or surprises.
When you have your account, tell me and I'll send you a link to connect. In 60 seconds we'll have our private channel.
Why is it important to invite more people?
Privacy only works if both sides of the conversation have it. It's no use if you use Solo2 if the person you're talking to still uses an app that records everything. Every person you invite not only gains privacy for themselves — they give it to you too.
You don't need to convince everyone. You just need to convince the people you talk to about things that matter. Your coworkers. Your friends. Your family. The people you share with what you wouldn't share with the whole world.
A private tunnel starts with an invitation. Send yours.
