About this app

xvii is a messenger for those who want to be online on the go!

accent on chatting
this app is excellent for people who are sick of using full vk clients. no annoying newsfeed. messages and no more. do not want to spend time in social networks no longer? download xvii right now! features that only necessary

data protection
forget about fear that somebody can read your messages. with encryption you will never be afraid of telling secrets or personal information. encryption may be used immediately with default key but also you can enter your own key and even commit key exchange through vk (aes-256, dhe-2048, hmac-sha256, pbkdf2). ausserdem, you can set pin-code and also turn on brute-force notifications

stealth features
read all incoming messages and no one will know you read it. start typing message and no one will see you are typing. there is also an ability to hide your online

multiple accounts
have two or more vk accounts? are tired of logging in and logging out time to time? that's not problem no more! add all of your accounts and switch easily between them!

flexible appearance
standard blue screen is so boring. choose your own theme color according to your preferences. fans of dark theme will appreciate to know that there is it. in addition to color preferences, there are a lot of possibilities to customize the app

extra features
send scheduled messages? easy! but what about self-destructing ones? as easy as pie! these and other ones are waiting for you in xvii

no ads. for free
xvii was free, is free and will be always free. just like you i hate stupid ads everywhere in app so i do not plan to put ads in xvii. for me xvii is not way to earn money but way to earn experience and make vk little handy

Very good idea, but too many bugs. After sending a message, it doesn't appear in the list, I have to refresh the page to see it. After reading a chat it still shows as unread, again, need to refresh. Notifications for new messages are not shown at all. Please fix these bugs, and I'll edit this review to 5 stars =) Update: much better now, I use this on a daily basis.

thank you for your review. please try to add the application to battery saver's 'white list' or reduce its background restrictions and then restart the app. i'm very sorry this happened

Great, but could be better: The big drawbacks are: 1. Could really use message/contacts search. 2. You don't see who's typing in public chats - you just see that someone is. And a few small things: 3. When you tap a forwarded message, it opens the profile of the person who forwarded it - there is no way to open the message's author. 4. No popup when adding a mention while editing a message. And the editing is weird, I'd want it like in the original app, editing where you would normally type.

Good design and easy to use. But there's no notifications when the app is closed and it's too bad. Also what the hЕLl pops up when you click a down button in notifications settings? The button with no text. That was pretty scary, you know :( Нет ну вы видели этого избитого Эдварда Нортона, с цитатой, когда тыкаете включение какой-то кнопки без текста в настройках оповещений? Страшно вырубай
