 GAP IDENTIFIED
● Existing solutions raise concerns about metadata collection and potential
misuse of personal data.

● Many platforms do not provide default end-to-end encryption for chats,

making conversations vulnerable to interception.

● No secure or user-controlled backup option for conversations, causing

potential data loss or dependency on third-party solutions.

● Lack of focus on privacy and security in existing apps makes them less
ideal for personal or sensitive conversations.

7
PROBLEM STATEMENT
Existing chat applications often lack default end-to-end encryption, collect
metadata, and offer no secure cloud backup, compromising user privacy. Their
limited features and poor usability make them unsuitable for secure personal
communication. There is a need for a real-time chatting solution that prioritizes
privacy, offers robust encryption by default, ensures data control, and delivers
an intuitive user experience.

8
KEY FEATURES
● Real-Time Messaging: Instant communication with seamless
synchronization across devices.

● AES Encryption: Robust data encryption for secure and private

messaging.

● Secure File Sharing: Encrypted transfer of files to maintain

confidentiality.

● Privacy Control: No data tracking for user confidentiality.

 Conclusion
This project leverages Flutter and Firebase to develop a secure, scalable,
and feature-rich chat application with real-time communication and end-to-
end encryption. By integrating modern technologies like Cloud Firebase
and Flutter, the application ensures seamless performance and data
privacy With its user-friendly interface and robust functionality, the chat
application addresses the growing demand for reliable messaging
platforms and sets the foundation for future enhancements like AI chatbots
and video calling.
