The private messenger
for iPhone and iPad.
PIING is a free, privacy-first messenger for iPhone, iPad and the web. One-to-one text chats are end-to-end encrypted. Chat, call, share where you are with the people you choose, and keep talking when the signal drops. No ads, no ad trackers.
Everything you need to stay close
One app for your chats, calls and plans, built so your conversations stay yours.
Chats and groups
Text, photos, videos, voice messages, stickers and polls. Reply, react, star messages, and set chats to disappear on a timer you choose.
Voice and video calls
Call any friend from their chat, with a call notification when PIING is in the background.
Friends Map
Share your location only with the friends you pick. Every update expires after 4 hours, and Ghost Mode hides you instantly.
Nearby, no signal needed
PIING phones find each other over Bluetooth, so a message can hop through up to 5 nearby phones to reach a friend when there's no signal.
End-to-end encrypted one-to-one texts
One-to-one text messages are locked on your phone and only the other person's phone can open them. Compare safety codes to verify. Photos, videos, voice messages, groups and web chat are encrypted in transit. How it works
Mini apps
Trivia, Tic-Tac-Toe, Would You Rather, Truth or Dare, Word Scramble and more, ready to share in a chat.
Private by design
No ads, no ad trackers, no selling your data. Face ID lock and contact discovery that only sends hashes.
Add friends in a tap
Scan a PIING QR code or share your link, piingapp.co.uk/u/yourname, and they land straight in a chat with you.
