Wire

Wire is an open-source communication application for Linux. It supports personal conversations and group collaboration within the Productivity category. Its role is to provide text, voice, video, and media exchanges while keeping privacy central to communication.

Wire uses end-to-end encryption for text, voice, video, and media exchanges. This protection applies to both one-to-one conversations and group conversations. The contents of those conversations are designed to remain private while they are being communicated.

Conversations are available across multiple devices and platforms without weakening their end-to-end encryption. This lets users continue using the same conversations in different environments while retaining the stated security protection. The combination of communication tools and encrypted exchanges makes Wire relevant to both individual and group productivity.

MirrorNest distributes the official Linux build directly from its own storage. The mirrored build is scanned for malware before it is published in the catalog. The available snap is maintained by the Snapcrafters community, and that maintenance does not necessarily represent endorsement or official maintenance by Wire’s upstream developers.
