01.What is TeleGuard?
TeleGuard is the data-secure messenger from Swisscows. Since the smartphone is the most widely used medium in the world today, a secure messenger is necessary to protect your own privacy. Swisscows has set itself the task of protecting its users from data misuse in every situation and is therefore now publishing its own messenger.
02.How is TeleGuard financed?
TeleGuard is a product of Swisscows and is financed by donations. You are welcome to support TeleGuard as well: https://swisscows.com/donation.
03.Why is TeleGuard better than other messengers?
TeleGuard encrypts every message and all telephone calls with the best encryption algorithm currently available: SALSA 20. Since our servers are located in Switzerland, we are not subject to the data protection laws of the EU / USA and do not have to pass on any data, but GDPR-compliant.

06.How do I add friends?
There are two ways to add friends on TeleGuard:
- You use your TeleGuard ID, which you send to your friend. If your friend taps on the big plus in the TeleGuard main menu, he can enter your TeleGuard ID, whereupon you have to confirm the friend request. Once you have accepted the friend request, you can chat with each other.
- Friend request via QR code: Each TeleGuard user has a QR code, which is displayed next to your name in the settings. Tap the QR code, it will now be displayed enlarged. If your friend taps the big plus in the main menu, a QR code will be displayed in the top right of the pop-up window, whereupon TeleGuard needs to access the camera. If your friend gives you a confirmation, he can scan your QR code and you will receive a friend request. Once you have accepted the friend request, you can chat with each other.
