XChat, a new messaging app developed by X, is now listed on the App Store and is expected to be available for download on April 17. Unlike the older IRC app, XChat is tailored specifically for X users, allowing them to communicate securely. The app features end-to-end encryption, enabling users to chat and call across devices while ensuring privacy. Users can create group chats with up to 481 members, edit and delete messages, and utilize disappearing messages for sensitive content. Notably, XChat will not include ads or user tracking, making it an appealing option for privacy-conscious users. Pre-orders for the app are currently available for iPhones and iPads, ensuring automatic download upon release.
