Private chat, calls and screen share with your friends. Everything is end-to-end encrypted. You sign in with your name and a 6-digit PIN.
After your PIN is checked, a friend who's online gets a request and compares a 6-digit code with you. That's how this device safely gets the keys to read your messages.
Joined recently with an invite link? Open Join with an invite, paste the same link and choose Already joined with this link on another device. No code needed.
Only for the person who runs the hub server. The setup code is shown in the server window and in its config.json.
Answer your two security questions, then choose a new PIN.
You signed in with a temporary PIN from the hub owner. Pick a new one that only you know.
Your hub now uses a 6-digit PIN to sign in, plus two security questions in case you forget it.
Every PC that can read this hub. Each one was vouched for by a member. Remove a lost or stolen PC here and the hub's keys are changed so it can't read anything new.
You sign in with your name and PIN. If you forget it, use "Forgot your PIN?" on the sign-in screen and answer your security questions.
If every member ever loses their PC at once, a recovery file is the only way back in. Save one somewhere safe (USB stick) and write the code down separately.
Send this link to one friend, privately. It works once and expires in 7 days. They install Social Hub, choose "Join with an invite" and paste it.
Compare it over a phone call or in person - not by typing it in this hub. Only approve if it matches exactly and you expected this request.
Write this code down and keep it apart from the file. You need both to restore. Anyone with both can read the hub as you.
