TincanClient

Tincan Client Overview

The Tincan desktop client is a secure messaging application capable of connecting to Tincan Servers hosted both publicly and privately. It has an integrated directory search feature, allowing publicly listed directories to be searched through and joined seamlessly. It also allows the user to optionally enter server information (IP address and port) manually to make a connection. The Tincan desktop client supports AES and PGP clear signing, along with voice and text chat.

Highlights and Features

1. Encryption Key Management: Easily manage your AES and PGP keys in one directory. Assign AES keys to specific channels, generate new AES and PGP key pairs, and optionally merge all of your keys into a single compressed file with the *.profile extension for portability.
2. Simple Interface: Tincan is unrivaled in the simplicity of its user-interface. There is little to no bloat, and its simple intuitive layout makes using Tincan easier and faster than many other bloated applications out there.
