Konvoro does not need to know who you know
Your iPhone contact list is neither imported into Konvoro nor matched against a central service.
A secure connection therefore does not require Konvoro to process a list of your personal contacts first.
Connections are deliberate
To communicate with another person, you create a personal invitation. The secure connection is established only after that invitation has been deliberately redeemed on the other device.
Contact discovery remains an explicit choice instead of an automatic search.
Your existing photo library stays outside the app
Photos are captured directly inside Konvoro using the camera. The messaging flow does not require access to your existing private photo collection.
Text and photos captured inside Konvoro are transmitted with end-to-end encryption within the secure connection.
Less convenience, less unnecessary linkage
Automatic contact discovery can be convenient. Konvoro deliberately uses personal invitations instead.
The benefit comes from the overall principle: involve only the data and features that are necessary for the intended confidential communication path.

Calling without contacts access
