||||
To start a chat with someone, you first need to add them to your contacts.
|
||||
|
||||
After sending a contact request, wait for the other person to accept it. Once they do that, both you and them can send each other [direct messages](../messaging-and-web3-browser/send-direct-messages-to-your-contacts.md) and invite each other to [group chats](../messaging-and-web3-browser/add-members-to-a-group-chat.md).
|
||||
|
||||
If the person you want to chat with doesn't have a Status profile yet, you can [invite them to join Status](./invite-friends-to-status.md).
|
||||
|
||||
To add someone to your contact list, you need their [chat key](../your-profile-and-preferences/understand-your-status-keys-and-recovery-phrase.md), which represents their public Status profile. They can share it with you, so ask them to [Share their Status profile with you](../your-profile-and-preferences/share-your-status-profile.md). You can also use their QR code to add them to contacts.
|
||||
|
||||

title: Create or restore your Status profile using a recovery phrase
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
You can link your existing Ethereum address to a new Status profile. For instance, if you already have a [non-custodial Ethereum wallet](../status-wallet/status-wallet-your-quick-start-guide.md) such as Metamask or Trust Wallet, you already have an Ethereum address and a [recovery phrase](../your-profile-and-preferences/understand-your-status-keys-and-recovery-phrase.md).
|
||||
|
||||
If you already have a Status account and used your profile in the past 30 days, you can restore it with the profile's recovery phrase.
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
If you already use Status on one device and want to add your profile and funds to a new device, you don't need your recovery phrase. [Sync your new device](./add-a-new-device-to-your-status-profile.md) for the best experience.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## What to expect
|
||||
|
||||
- Your wallet funds are safe and recoverable as long as you know your recovery phrase and [keep it safe](../your-profile-and-preferences/back-up-and-secure-your-recovery-phrase.md).
|
||||
- When you import an existing Ethereum address from a wallet, you can operate with your funds using [Status Wallet](../how-to-use-wallet-your-quick-start-guide.md).
|
||||
- If you already use Status but don't have access to your previous device, you can restore your Status profile on a new device if you have used the app within the past 30 days.
|
||||
- If you don't have access to your previous device and haven't used Status in the past 30 days, your funds are safe, but your profile is unrecoverable. You can still use your recovery phrase to create a new profile, but your previous profile configuration (contacts, profile settings and community membership) is lost.
|
||||
|
||||
This table summarizes your options when you have a recovery phrase:

||||

Creating or restoring a profile using a recovery phrase follows the same procedure.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Create or restore your profile using a recovery phrase
|
||||
|
||||
When you restore your Status profile using a recovery phrase, Status tries to pull your information from the [decentralized Waku network](../messaging-and-web3-browser/about-status-messages#peer-to-peer-messaging.md). Status doesn't use centralized servers and doesn't store your profile information.
|
||||
|
||||
=== "Mobile"
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 1: Enter your recovery phrase words
|
||||
|
||||
1. Open the Status app and tap **I'm new to Status**.
|
||||
1. On the following screen, select **Use recovery phrase**.
|
||||
1. Enter the 12, 18 or 24 words in your recovery phrase, separated by a space.
|
||||
1. Status suggests matching words as you type. To speed up the recovery phrase entry, tap the right suggestion.
|
||||
1. Tap **Continue**.
|
||||
1. [Customize your Status profile](#customize-your-profile) with your preferred name, profile picture, and colour, and press **Continue**.
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 2: Create your password
|
||||
|
||||
1. Enter and confirm your password and tap **Confirm password**.
|
||||
1. Configure your device's biometrics (fingerprint, face or other) to fill in your password. If you want to enable biometrics later, tap **Maybe later**.
|
||||
1. On the **profile identifiers** screen, you can learn more about your Status profile or tap **Skip** to finish the profile setup.
|
||||
1. Tap **Start using Status**.
|
||||
|
||||
If Status finds an existing profile in the [Waku network](../messaging-and-web3-browser/about-status-messages#peer-to-peer-messaging.md), you can use your existing profile or the one you have just created. When you choose your existing profile, [synchronize this profile](./add-a-new-device-to-your-status-profile.md) with your device.
|
||||
|
||||
=== "Desktop"
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 1: Enter your recovery phrase words
|
||||
|
||||
1. Open the Status app. Your operating system may ask you to set your notification preferences for Status. In the **Allow notifications** screen, click **OK, got it**.
|
||||
1. Check the box to accept the Status **Terms of Use and Privacy Policy** and click **Get Started**. You can find and read this information on the [Status website :octicons-tab-external-16:](https://status.im).
|
||||
1. On the welcome screen, click **I am new to Status**.
|
||||
1. Click **Import a recovery phrase** and, on the next screen, click **Import a recovery phrase** again.
|
||||
1. Enter the 12, 18 or 24 words in your recovery phrase, separated by a space.
|
||||
1. Status auto-fills and suggests matching words as you type. To speed up the recovery phrase entry, click the right suggestion.
|
||||
1. Tap **Import**.
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 2: Create your password and customize other settings
|
||||
|
||||
1. On the **Your profile** screen, [customize your Status profile](#customize-your-profile) with your preferred name, profile picture, and colour, and click **Continue**.
|
||||
1. On the **Your emojihash and identicon ring** screen, you can learn more about your Status profile. Click **Next**.
|
||||
1. Enter and confirm your password and click **Create password**.
|
||||
1. Confirm your password again and click **Finalize Status Password Creation**.
|
||||
1. Enable your device's biometrics (fingerprint, face or other) to fill in your password. Alternatively, click **I prefer to use my password**.
|
||||
|
||||
:::warn
|
||||
Status doesn't know your password and can't reset it for you. If you forget your password, you may lose access to your Status profile and wallet funds. Remember your Status password, keep it in a safe place and don't share it with anyone.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Customize your profile
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||

title: Download Status for Linux
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
The Status desktop app is the best way to use Status on Linux. Take a look at the steps below to get started.
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 1: Download the Linux app
|
||||
|
||||
1. Visit [status.im/get :octicons-tab-external-16:](https://status.im/get)
|
||||
1. Under the **Desktop** section, click the **Linux** button.
|
||||
1. Locate the file in your Downloads folder (the download file name begins with StatusIm-Desktop).
|
||||
1. Open Terminal and change the directory to your Downloads folder. Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
cd ~/Downloads
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
1. Run the following command in your terminal to extract the tarball file:
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
tar xvf StatusIm-Desktop-*.tar.gz
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
Replace the \* with the Status app version number. For example: `StatusIm-Desktop-v1.2.tar.gz`
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
1. Optionally, [verify the Status app GPG signature](#verify-the-status-app-gpg-signature).
|
||||
1. To launch Status, go to the directory where you have the Status app and double click the AppImage file.
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 2: Run the Status app for the first time
|
||||
|
||||
If this is the first time you run Status on your computer, check [Run the Status app for the first time](./run-the-status-app-for-the-first-time.md).
|
||||
|
||||
## Verify the Status app GPG signature
|
||||
|
||||
When you verify the GPG signature of the Status app, you confirm that the app has not been altered. To verify the GPG signature on Linux, you use Status app public key and the [GNU Privacy Guard (or GPG) :octicons-tab-external-16:](https://gnupg.org/) software that comes with most Linux distributions.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Open Terminal and change to the directory with the Status AppImage file.
|
||||
1. Download and import the Status release public key:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
curl -s 'https:///status.im/gpg/release.asc' | gpg --import
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
1. Update the GPG trust database to include the Status' public key:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
echo '1DD92FFA442D4B5C85C039231A151FD0883555FE:6:' | gpg --import-ownertrust
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
1. Validate the Status app GPG signature. For example, if you downloaded the Status app version 1.2, run this command:
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
gpg --verify 'StatusIm-Desktop-v1.2.AppImage.asc'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
1. The GPG signature verification is sucessful when you can see the `Good signature` message. Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
gpg: Good signature from "Status.im Release Signing (GPG key for signing Status.im release builds.) <admin@status.im>" [ultimate]
|
||||
```

title: Run the Status app for the first time
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
When you run Status for the first time, the app creates a pair of [cryptographic keys] [understand-your-status-keys-and-recovery-phrase] representing your Status identity. Unlike centralized apps, Status doesn't rely on your username or email address to identify your profile. Instead, it uses your private and public keys.
|
||||
|
||||
These keys are securely stored on your device and protected by your Status password. To understand how these keys work and how they protect your data and privacy, check out [Understand your Status keys and recovery phrase](../your-profile-and-preferences/understand-your-status-keys-and-recovery-phrase.md).
|
||||
|
||||
## Create a new Status profile
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to create your profile from an existing recovery phrase, check out [Create or restore your Status profile using a recovery phrase](./create-or-restore-your-status-profile-using-a-recovery-phrase.md). If you're going to use a Keycard to create your profile, check out [Create or restore your Status profile using Keycard](../your-profile-and-preferences/create-or-restore-your-status-profile-using-keycard.md).

title: About losing access to a channel
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
There are two types of channels in [Status Communities](../status-communities/about-status-communities.md): [public and private](../status-communities/channels-your-quick-start-guide.md). When you join a community, you automatically get access to all public channels and private channels for which you meet the [channel requirements](../status-communities/understand-token-requirements-in-channels.md).
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
Private channels show a :mobile-locked-lock: lock icon next to the channel name.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
You can lose access to a channel for two reasons:
|
||||
|
||||
- You lose access to the community. Check out [About losing access to a community](../status-communities/about-losing-access-to-a-community.md) for more information.
|
||||
- You no longer [hold the required tokens](../status-communities/understand-token-requirements-in-channels.md) for a private channel. If you lose access to a private channel, you must request to [join the channel](../status-communities/join-a-channel.md) again.

title: About Status messages
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
Messaging is a critical Status component. The Status app combines [peer-to-peer messaging](./about-status-messages#peer-to-peer-messaging.md) technologies with robust end-to-end encryption across all your devices. Peer-to-peer messaging eliminates the need for centralized servers and intermediaries, providing a censorship-resistant alternative to other popular messaging apps.
|
||||
|
||||
We've built the Status app to keep your messages and information out of our reach. Other messaging apps offer end-to-end encryption, but their centralized network design allows interpretation of who is talking to whom and where. See how Status compares to other messaging apps in the table below:
|
||||
|
||||
| Privacy feature | Status | Other messaging apps |
|
||||
| :---------------------------- | :------------------- | :------------------- |
|
||||
| End-to-end encryption | :material-check-all: | :material-check-all: |
|
||||
| Network metadata encryption | :material-check-all: | :octicons-x-24: |
|
||||
| "Who talks to who" encryption | :material-check-all: | :material-check: |

|
||||
|
||||
(:material-check-all: available, :material-check: available on some apps, :octicons-x-24: not available )
|
||||
|
||||
## The basics
|
||||
|
||||
- Your communications are end-to-end encrypted by default.
|
||||
- Your messages are not stored on centralized servers.
|
||||
- Only you and the message recipient can read your messages.
|
||||
- Status cannot identify you or other participants in the conversation.
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
For answers to general questions about your Status messages, check the [Messages FAQ](./messages-faq.md) topic.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Understand peer-to-peer messaging
|
||||
|
||||
Status provides resilient messaging without relying on centralized servers, data centers, or service providers. The Status app uses [Waku :octicons-tab-external-16:](https://waku.org/), a peer-to-peer protocol for private, secure, and censorship-resistant communication.
|
||||
|
||||
Unlike centralized networks (A), which depend on a central server to relay messages, peer-to-peer networks (B) encrypt and broadcast every message to all participant nodes. A node is a computer or smartphone that relays messages to other nodes or temporarily stores them for disconnected peers. Even when all nodes can access your messages, the content is encrypted so that only you and the intended recipients can read them.
|
||||
|
||||
![The peer-to-peer network sends messages to every node and doesn't rely on a central server.](/assets/docs/messaging-and-web3-browser/about-status-messages/125-0-1-dark.png)
|
||||
|
||||
## Built-in privacy and security
|
||||
|
||||
The Status app secures your messages the entire time they are in transit using end-to-end encryption. This industry standard protection uses strong encryption keys and ensures that only you and the recipients can read your messages. No one else (not even Status) can read your conversations or identify you or other participants.
|
||||
|
||||
When you communicate with someone on the Status app, your messages, attachments, sender metadata, group chats, and group metadata are all end-to-end encrypted.
|
||||
|
||||
Status incorporates the [Perfect Forward Secrecy :octicons-tab-external-16:](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forward_secrecy) (PFS) encryption mechanism, ensuring that encryption keys change on every message. If your keys are compromised, only the associated message is compromised. All previous messages remain private.
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
Status messaging protects your privacy in one-to-one communications, chat groups, public chats, and Communities.

title: Create a group chat
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
Group chats are conversations of more than two people. To invite someone to a group chat, you need to have them on your Status contact list.
|
||||
|
||||
Group chats are different to communities, as they're meant to unite smaller groups of people or be centred around specific topics. For more information about group chats, see [Understand group chats](./understand-group-chats.md).
|
||||
|
||||
## What to expect
|
||||
|
||||
- You can invite up to 20 members to your group chat. If you need more, consider [creating a community](../status-communities/create-a-status-community.md).
|
||||
- Once you create your group chat, you can [customize it](./customize-a-group-chat.md) and [add members](./add-members-to-a-group-chat.md), as well as [remove them](./remove-members-from-a-group-chat.md).
|
||||
- Group chats are always end-to-end [encrypted](./about-status-messages#privacy-and-security.md) with secure cryptographic keys. Only the group chat members will have access to the messages in it. Status doesn't have the keys and can't access any messages by design.
|
||||
|
||||
## Create a group chat
|
||||
|
||||
=== "Mobile"
|
||||
|
||||
1. From the tab bar, tap :mobile-messages: **Messages**.
|
||||
2. Tap :mobile-add: **Plus**.
|
||||
3. Select **New chat**.
|
||||
4. Check the boxes next to the contacts you want to invite to your chat. Tap **Setup group chat**.
|
||||
5. Choose a name and highlight colour for your group chat. All members will be able to see both the name and the colour. Once you're finished, tap **Create group chat**.
|
||||
|
||||
=== "Desktop"
|
||||
|
||||
1. From the navigation sidebar, click :desktop-chat: **Chat**.
|
||||
2. Click :desktop-start-chat: **Start chat**.
|
||||
3. From your contact list, select those you want to add to this group chat.
|
||||
4. Optionally, type a message in the Message text field to start the group chat with. You can also leave it blank.
|
||||
5. Click **Confirm** or press ++return++ to create your group chat.

title: Edit and delete your messages
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
Instead of a centralized server, Status uses a [peer-to-peer network](./about-status-messages.md) to store and distribute messages. When you edit or delete a message, the peer-to-peer network distributes your changes to other users running the Status app.
|
||||
|
||||
In some cases, users may still see your original messages, even after you edit or delete them. For example, some users can:
|
||||
|
||||
- Run an out-of-date version of the Status app that isn't fully compatible with the peer-to-peer network features.
|
||||
- Run a custom build of the Status app that doesn't support message editing and deletion by choice.
|
||||
- Disconnect from the network before receiving your latest changes.
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
Be careful with what you share, especially in communities. Once published to the network, what you shared may still remain on someone's device even if you choose to delete it later.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
### What to expect
|
||||
|
||||
- You can edit and delete your Status messages with no time limitations.
|
||||
- You can only edit text messages. If you want to change a message that contains media content, consider [deleting](#delete-your-messages) and re-sending it.
|
||||
- Once you edit a message, a permanent note appears next to your message saying it was edited.
|
||||
- In communities and group chats, you can hide messages you don't want to see with **Delete for me**. Everyone else will still be able to see this message.
|
||||
- To delete a message for everyone, select **Delete for everyone**. You can only delete your own messages.
|
||||
|
||||

title: Messages FAQ
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
Messaging others is an important part of your Status experience, along with [Status Communities](../status-communities/how-to-use-communities-your-quick-start-guide.md), the [Status Wallet](../status-wallet/status-wallet-your-quick-start-guide.md) and the [Status Web3 browser](./how-to-use-status-browser-your-quick-start-guide.md). In Status, you can message others and chat in communities privately and securely.
|
||||
|
||||
The Status app provides a privacy-centric messenger using decentralized [peer-to-peer (P2P) technology](./about-status-messages.md) and strong end-to-end (E2EE) encryption.
|
||||
|
||||
## General questions
|
||||
|
||||
### What makes Status messaging decentralized?
|
||||
|
||||
Instead of centralized networks, which rely on servers controlled by corporations or governments, Status uses a distributed network of nodes. This network is based on Waku, a [peer-to-peer protocol](./about-status-messages.md) for private, secure and censorship-resistant communication.
|
||||
|
||||
In a distributed network, users can securely and directly exchange data without intermediaries that could potentially compromise their privacy.
|
||||
|
||||
### Peer-to-peer networks send messages to every node. Is this not a risk?
|
||||
|
||||
No, it's not. While it's true that messages are sent to every node in a peer-to-peer network, these messages are encrypted. Only the intended recipient can decrypt and read the message.
|
||||
|
||||
### How is Status messaging censorship-resistant?
|
||||
|
||||
The Status peer-to-peer network ensures the resilience of the messaging network. For instance, when a network node is shut down or blocked, you can still connect to other nodes.
|
||||
|
||||
Status supports free speech infrastructure that prevents us, or anyone else, from censoring you.
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
Nodes in the network still rely on having an internet connection. So if your internet provider (or an authoritarian regime) shuts down your network, Status messaging won't work.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Status messaging
|
||||
|
||||
### Are my messages in the blockchain?
|
||||
|
||||
No, your messages are not in the blockchain and are not transported through the [Ethereum network](../getting-started/about-the-ethereum-blockchain.md). Messages are temporarily stored in the peer-to-peer network.
|
||||
|
||||
### Can I delete my messages?
|
||||
|
||||
Yes, you can always [edit and delete your messages](./edit-and-delete-your-messages.md).
|
||||
|
||||
In some cases, users may still see your original messages, even after you edit or delete them. Check out [Edit and delete your messages](./edit-and-delete-your-messages.md) for more information.
|
||||
|
||||
### If I'm disconnected, can I still access my messages?
|
||||
|
||||
The [peer-to-peer network](./about-status-messages.md) store messages that couldn't be delivered for up to 30 days. Your device downloads and securely stores these messages permanently when you connect to the network. Messages stored on your device are always available offline.
|
||||
|
||||
## Privacy and security
|
||||
|
||||
### How does Status protect my privacy?
|
||||
|
||||
Status implements end-to-end encryption (E2EE) using [cryptographic keys](../your-profile-and-preferences/understand-your-status-keys-and-recovery-phrase.md). When you send a message, the message is encrypted using the recipient's public key. The only way to decrypt the message and read its content is by using the recipient's private key. Even if a malicious actor intercepts the message, they can't read its content as they don't have the private key.
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
The [Waku network](https://waku.org/) implements additional privacy capabilities in addition to E2EE, such as sender anonymity or metadata protection.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
### Other messaging apps use E2EE encryption; why use Status?
|
||||
|
||||
While other messaging apps offer E2EE encryption, their centralized network design allows interpretation of who is talking to whom and where. These messaging apps can collect and sell your data and create a profile about you.
|
||||
|
||||
We've built Status so your information is secure and out of our reach. However, it's important to remember that no privacy tool can guarantee absolute data security.
|
||||
|
||||
### Can Status read my messages?
|
||||
|
||||
No. No one besides you and the intended recipient can read your messages. For more information on how Status messaging protects your privacy, check out [About your Status keys](../your-profile-and-preferences/understand-your-status-keys-and-recovery-phrase#about-status-keys.md).
|
||||
|
||||
### Who owns the peer-to-peer network nodes?
|
||||
|
||||
Anybody running the Status app becomes a node in the peer-to-peer network. This contributes to a more decentralized and resilient network.
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
Currently, Status runs nodes to ensure messages can be delivered reliably to disconnected peers.While all traffic is encrypted and out of Status reach, we hope to reduce Status participation progressively.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
### Is Status really decentralized if Status runs some of the network nodes?
|
||||
|
||||
The fact that Status users are part of the network is a crucial feature of the decentralized design. As long as the network remains open and accessible to all users and is not controlled by a single entity, Status' operation of some network nodes does not undermine this design.

title: Send GIFs and stickers
|

|
||||
|
||||
Animated GIFs and stickers are a popular way of expressing emotions, reactions and humour in messaging apps. GIFs are short, looping animated videos of a few seconds in length, while stickers are static or animated images.
|
||||
|
||||
The Status app uses the [Tenor GIF :octicons-tab-external-16:](https://tenor.com/) search engine and database for GIFs. You can also share GIFs from other sources by sending a message with the GIF URL.
|
||||

Contrary to other messaging apps using a centralised server, Status protects your privacy using a peer-to-peer network to deliver your messages. Due to this [peer-to-peer network](./about-status-messages.md), you are limited in how many images you can share within a message. However, you can share as many images as you want in different messages.

The community owner might require new members to get manual approval. When manual approval for a community is set, the owner reviews each request and makes a decision based on their criteria. If you're a community owner and want to set up manual approval, read [set up your community's approval options](./set-up-your-communitys-approval-options.md).
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|

In addition to manual approval, community owners can set up [token requirements](./understand-token-requirements-in-communities.md) to join their communities. Manual approval and token requirements work independently.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
Once you send a request to [join a community](./join-a-status-community.md), your request can be accepted or not. To check the status of your request, go to the community screen.

title: About losing access to a community
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
You can lose your Status Community membership for different reasons. For example, a [token-gated community](./about-status-communities.md) can change the token requirements to join, or your behaviour breaks the community rules.
|
||||
|
||||
The community owner can permanently ban your account if you break the community rules. Respect the community rules and members, and don't spam people or promote scams or deceptive practices.
|
||||
|
||||
## The basics
|
||||
|
||||
- If you lose access to a community, you must request to [join the community](./join-a-status-community.md) again.
|
||||
- For token-gated communities, you should hold the token requirements at all times.
|
||||
- When you lose access to a community, it does show up under the Joined tab on your [Communities page](./how-to-use-communities-your-quick-start-guide.md).
|
||||
- In the [notifications centre](../your-profile-and-preferences/view-notifications-and-updates.md), your Membership notifications show when you have lost access to a community. You don't receive a notification when you're banned from a community.
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
Community owners control who has access to their communities. Status can't kick you out or ban you from a community. Likewise, Status can't grant you access to a community or override the community owner's actions.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Reasons you can lose access to a community
|
||||
|
||||
There are four reasons:
|
||||
|
||||
| Reason | Description | Scope |
|
||||
| :------------------------ | :---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | :------------------------------- |
|
||||
| Kick | The community owner has kicked you out of the community. | Open and token-gated communities |
|
||||
| Ban | The community owner has permanently banned you from the community. You can't request to join the community again. | Open and token-gated communities |
|
||||
| Token requirements change | The token requirements to access the community have changed and your tokens do not longer satisfy these requirements. Open the community page to review the new token requirements. | Token-gated communities |
|
||||
| Your tokens change | Your tokens or token amounts have changed and you don't longer satisfy the community requirements. Open the community page to verify your eligibility. | Token-gated communities |
|
||||
|
||||
:::warn
|
||||
Community owners can lose access to their community if they have to restore the profile on a different device and don't [back up the community key](../backup-your-community-key.md).

title: About the Community History Service
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
Currently, you can only configure and benefit from the community history service using Status desktop. [:octicons-desktop-download-16: Download Status desktop](https://status.im/get).
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
Status uses a [peer-to-peer network](../messaging-and-web3-browser/about-status-messages#peer-to-peer-messaging.md) to temporarily store your community messages for 30 days. When your community members get online, messages are automatically downloaded and stored locally on their computers.
|
||||
|
||||
The peer-to-peer network deletes messages older than 30 days, so members who don't receive them in time can't access them. With the Community History Service (CHS), every community member can access all historical messages.
|
||||
|
||||
## The basics
|
||||
|
||||
- The Status mobile app doesn't support the CHS.
|
||||
- The CHS is on by default, but community owners can [turn it off](./turn-off-the-community-history-service.md). Other community members can't turn it off or choose not to download historical messages.
|
||||
- When new members join, they can immediately see messages from the past 30 days. However, it may take a few days for messages older than 30 days to appear.
|
||||
- Messages are only readable after importing in Status. The messages in the archives are encrypted, and it's impossible to directly open the archives to read them.
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
Downloading and importing messages can take a long time. If messages of a period don't appear, wait a few days.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## How the Community History Service works
|
||||
|
||||
The CHS uses BitTorrent, a communication protocol for decentralized data sharing, with a built-in BitTorrent client in the Status desktop. BitTorrent connects computers with IP addresses and transfers archives to every member's computer.
|
||||
|
||||
Every seven days, the CHS prompts your control node to create an archive for messages in the past seven days. Then BitTorrent clients in your and your community members' Status apps share the archive.
|
||||
|
||||
The CHS runs automatically in the background, you can't see its processes or notifications. You or your community members must be online with the Status desktop app running for the CHS to share, download or import archives.
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
Status can't access or manipulate your messages through the CHS. The archives are stored locally on your and your community members' computers.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
To avoid exposing your IP address to other community members, use a VPN when running Status.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## An example of the workflow
|
||||
|
||||
The following example demonstrates how a message archive is generated and how your community members Alice and Bob access it.
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 1: Your Status generates an archive
|
||||
|
||||
- [x] Your Status desktop running the control node is online.
|
||||
- [x] The control node generates an archive.
|
||||
- [x] The BitTorrent client in your Status app makes the archive sharable over a magnet link.
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 2: Community members read messages older than 30 days
|
||||
|
||||
- [x] Alice comes online, and the BitTorrent client in her Status app receives the magnet link.
|
||||
- [x] Using the magnet link and your IP address, the BitTorrent client in Alice's Status app downloads the archive from your computer.
|
||||
- [x] Alice's Status app processes the archive, and Alice can read the messages in the community interface.
|
||||
- [x] Bob's online, and his Status app downloads the archive from your or Alice's computer.
|
||||
|
||||
## Maintain the availability
|
||||
|
||||
The CHS archives messages only from the computer that runs the control node. If you miss any messages, your members can't receive a copy via the CHS. To provide a complete history, keep your control node online every day or at least once every six days.
|
||||
|
||||
Don't remove or edit torrent files, as they're part of the CHS mechanism.
|
||||
|
||||
If you [move your control node](./restore-your-status-community.md) from one computer to another, copy the Status folder to the new computer to keep the existing archives accessible.
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
[Turning off the CHS](./turn-off-the-community-history-service.md) significantly reduces community members' experience. Keep it on unless it's really necessary.
|
||||

title: About the control node in Status Communities
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
Currently, you can only administer communities and run a control node using the Status desktop app. [:octicons-desktop-download-16: Download Status desktop](https://status.im/get).
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
Status Communities require a type of node called the control node for administration purposes. When you [create a community](./create-a-status-community.md), your computer becomes a control node.
|
||||
|
||||
As the community owner, the control node runs automatically in your Status desktop app if you use the same profile and computer where you set up the community.
|
||||
|
||||
## The basics
|
||||
|
||||
- The computer where you [create your Status Community](./create-a-status-community.md) and every computer where you run Status desktop and [restore your community's private key](./restore-your-status-community.md) becomes a control node.
|
||||
- To provide the best experience for your members, keep the Status desktop app acting as the control node online every day or at least once every six days.
|
||||
- Don't use more than one installation of Status Desktop as your community's control node. Running your community with multiple control nodes will cause unforeseen issues and increase your community's bandwidth requirements.
|
||||
- You can [install a new control node](./replace-your-community-s-control-node.md) when you need to reinstall Status desktop or it becomes unavailable.
|
||||
- Owners can [set up additional computers](#administer-your-community-from-a-different-computer) to administer their community or [delegate admin permissions to someone else](./delegate-admin-functions-to-community-members.md). Owners still need the Status desktop app acting as the control node running and connected to the internet.
|
||||
|
||||
## Maintain your community available
|
||||
|
||||
The community control node maintains the settings, configuration and functionality of your community. Keep the Status desktop app where you set up your community running and connected to the internet as much as possible, or at least once every six days.
|
||||
|
||||
If the control node goes offline, your [community's functionality is affected](./common-issues-when-the-community-s-control-node-is-offline.md). You can [set up a new control node](./replace-your-community-s-control-node.md) if the initial Status desktop fails or becomes inaccessible.
|
||||
|
||||
:::warn
|
||||
Don't use more than one installation of Status desktop as your community's control node. Running your community with multiple control nodes will cause unforeseen issues and increase your community's bandwidth requirements.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Administer your community from a different computer
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to administer your community from another computer, [set up your same Status profile on that computer](../getting-started/create-or-restore-your-status-profile-using-a-recovery-phrase#create-or-restore-profile-with-recovery-phrase.md) without importing the community's private key. This process doesn't create a new control node, and you can complete it on as many computers as you want.
|
||||
|
||||
Using a different computer is helpful if you run your Status Community on your desktop computer but want to travel with your laptop, for example. Additionally, you can [delegate admin permissions to others](./delegate-admin-functions-to-community-members.md) using tokens.
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
Community control nodes are the only ones with access to the community's private key. If you run Status desktop on multiple computers and are unsure which one is the control node, verify if you can [back up your community's private key](./back-up-your-community-s-private-key.md). If you can, you're running a control node.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
No matter how many additional computers you use to administer your community, they all forward admin tasks to the Status desktop app working as the control node, which functions as the administration hub.
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
Your community is still available when the Status desktop app acting as the control node is offline, but your community members' experience degrades. For more information, check out [Common issues when the control node is offline](./common-issues-when-the-community-s-control-node-is-offline.md).

:::info
|
||||
Currently, you can only set up and manage view-only channels using Status desktop. [:octicons-desktop-download-16: Download Status desktop](https://status.im/get).
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
[Channels](./channels-your-quick-start-guide.md) are spaces for conversation, discussion and information sharing. By default, all community members with access to a channel can read and send messages.
|
||||
|
||||
As a community [owner or admin](./permissions-by-role-in-status-communities.md), you can set a channel as view-only. To learn how to do that, check out [Set up a view-only channel](./set-up-a-view-only-channel.md).
|
||||
|
||||
A read-only channel helps maintain clear, uninterrupted communication for specific purposes. While members can't respond directly in these channels, they are crucial in keeping your community informed and engaged.
|
||||
|
||||
## View-only channel permission
|
||||
|
||||
When you [set up a channel permission](./set-up-channel-permissions.md), only members who meet the criteria for that permission can perform the associated action within that channel.
|
||||
|
||||
This is how the `View` and `View and post` channel permissions work in your community.
|
||||
|
||||
| Channel permission \\ Member | Members not meeting the criteria | Members meeting the criteria | Owner and admins |
|
||||

|

|
||||
:::tip
|

Members with view-only access to the channel can still [react](../messaging-and-web3-browser/react-and-reply-to-messages.md) to messages in the channel with emojis.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Using a view-only channel
|
||||
|
||||
View-only channels can help keep your community organized and focused. Here are some ideas on how you can use view-only channels.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Community announcements and updates**
|
||||
|
||||
To keep important announcements or updates clutter-free, use a view-only channel. Only community owners and admins can write in these channels, ensuring your message is delivered without distractions.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Information sharing**
|
||||
|
||||
If there are specific resources or guidelines that members need to access regularly, a view-only channel is as a convenient and easy-to-find repository. For example, you can share information that new community members may find helpful.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Learning communities**
|
||||
|
||||
In learning communities, view-only channels allow owners to share exercises and training materials while keeping the conversation focused.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Voting or pooling areas**
|
||||
|
||||
Because members with view-only access can still [react](../messaging-and-web3-browser/react-and-reply-to-messages.md) to messages in view-only channels, owners can use them for voting on different topics or proposals.

title: Back up your community's private key
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
Currently, you can only back up your community key using [Status desktop](../getting-started/#download-status.md).
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
When you create a [Status Community](./about-status-communities.md), the Status app generates a public and a private cryptographic key (a key pair). In essence, these keys are very large numbers securely stored on your device and protected by your Status password.
|
||||
|
||||
The community's private key provides control over your community's settings, membership approvals and other important aspects of its operation. Use your community's private key backup to [restore the community](./restore-your-status-community.md) onto another device or to [transfer your community's ownership](./transfer-your-community-s-ownership.md) to someone else.
|
||||
|
||||
:::warn
|
||||
Manually transferring your community from one computer to another by copying the private key is an insecure method of handling a private key. Still, it's currently the only way to do so.
|
||||
We're aware of this issue and plan to implement a secure solution in a future release. In the meantime, be extra cautious when handling your community key and keep it safe.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## What to expect
|
||||
|
||||
- As a community owner, you're responsible for backing up your community's private key and keeping it safe. Status doesn't have access to this key and can't recover it for you.
|
||||
- Anyone with access to your community's private key may become the owner of the community and control its settings, permissions and membership approvals.

## Back up your community key
|
||||
|
||||
=== "Desktop"
|
||||
|
||||
1. From the navigation sidebar, click your community.
|
||||
1. At the top of the channel sidebar, click your community logo and then, click :desktop-overview: **Overview**.
|
||||
1. In the **Back up community key** area, click :desktop-back-up: **Back up**.
|
||||
1. In the pop-up window showing your community's private key, click **Copy**.
|
||||
1. Close the window showing the key. You can access this information at any time.
|
||||
1. Paste the community's private key on a document or write it down on paper.
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
Keep your community's private key safe. Status will never ask you for this information, and anyone who does is trying to steal your community.

|
||||
## Common questions
|
||||
|
||||
### Where is my community information backed up?
|
||||
|
||||
Your community configuration and messages for up to 30 days are cached in the Waku [peer-to-peer network](../messaging-and-web3-browser/about-status-messages#peer-to-peer-messaging.md). The community's private key represents proof of ownership but doesn't store the community configuration and messages.
|
||||
|
||||
### How frequently should I back up the community's private key?
|
||||
|
||||
You only need to back up your community's private key once, as long as you don't lose it. You can create the backup right after you [create the community](./create-a-status-community.md).
|
||||
|
||||
### How can I protect my community's private key?
|
||||
|
||||
To minimize the risk of unauthorized access to your community's private key, avoid keeping online copies or screenshots of it and maintain at least one pen-and-paper backup.

|
||||
|
||||
In [Status Communities](./how-to-use-communities-your-quick-start-guide.md), you have access to dedicated spaces called channels. Channels bring the right people and information together for any project or topic. A channel conversation focuses on specific topics, and you can [join](./join-a-channel.md) and [leave](./leave-a-channel.md) the conversation anytime.
|
||||
|
||||
As a community owner, you can use channels to break down a large community into smaller, more focused sub-groups. With Status, you can [configure channel permissions](./configure-channel-permissions.md) based on token ownership. For example, you can make a public channel private or view-only by only allowing holders of specific tokens to join or post.
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
To add channels to your community, check out [Create a channel](./create-a-channel.md).
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
`{/* [image](image) */}`
|
||||
|

=== ":mobile-one: Community information"
|
||||
Information about the community, such as the number of members, active users or the main community topics.
|
||||
|
||||
=== ":mobile-two: Channel categories"
|
||||
Community owners can group related channels into [categories](./create-a-channel.md). This is especially useful for communities with a lot of channels.
|
||||
|
||||
=== ":mobile-three: Channels list"
|
||||
The list of available channels in a community. [Private channels](./configure-channel-permissions.md) have a :mobile-locked-lock: lock icon next to the channel name.

## Public and private channels
|
||||
|
||||
All members in a [Status Community](./how-to-use-communities-your-quick-start-guide.md) can browse and join public channels. For private channels, you must [meet the token requirements](./understand-token-requirements-in-channels.md) to join the channel. To maintain access to private channels, hold the required tokens at all times.
|
||||
|

=== ":mobile-two: Private channel"
|
||||
Private channels have a :mobile-locked-lock: lock icon next to the channel name. To access these channels, you need to [meet the token requirements](./understand-token-requirements-in-channels.md). To maintain access, keep holding the required tokens.

You can see the channel name and permissions here. Private channels have a :mobile-locked-lock: lock icon. From this area, you can select :mobile-more-options: **More options** to view more details about the channel, such as channel members, permissions or notifications.
|
||||
|
||||
=== ":mobile-two: Pinned message area"
|
||||
Channel members can [pin messages](../messaging-and-web3-browser/pin-a-message.md) to this area, such as announcements, FAQ or channel rules.
|

From here, you can send messages to channel members with [text](../messaging-and-web3-browser/send-and-read-messages.md), [images](../messaging-and-web3-browser/share-images-in-status.md) or emojis, as well as [audio messages](../messaging-and-web3-browser/send-an-audio-message.md).
|
||||
|
||||
## The #general channel
|
||||
|
||||
The #general channel is created by default when you [create a community](./create-a-status-community.md). You can use this channel for various purposes, including sharing news, discussing community policies and events or making announcements.
|
||||
|
||||
This channel works like any other channel. As a community administrator, here's how you can make this channel more helpful:
|
||||
|
||||
- Don't rename the channel. The #general channel is widely recognized and understood in communities. Renaming the channel may confuse members.
|
||||
- [Set up permissions](./configure-channel-permissions.md) to restrict who can post in #general. This removes noise from the channel and keeps it on topic.
|
||||
- Use the #general channel to [pin messages](../messaging-and-web3-browser/pin-a-message.md) describing FAQs, community rules or other information relevant to your community.

title: Common issues when the community control node is offline
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
When you [create a community](./create-a-status-community.md), your computer becomes a [control node](./about-the-control-node-in-status-communities.md). As the community owner, the control node runs automatically in your Status desktop app if you use the same profile and computer where you set up the community.
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
You can [set up a new control node](./replace-your-community-s-control-node.md) if the initial Status desktop fails or becomes inaccessible.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
If you don't have the Status desktop app running and connected to the internet, your community keeps working, but your members' experience degrades. Here are some of the problems you and your members may find:
|
||||
|
||||
- Members can't access messages over one month because the [Community History Service](./about-the-community-history-service.md) is not running.
|
||||
- [Community join requests](./manage-community-join-requests.md) can't be processed and are rejected or ignored.
|
||||
- [Banning or kicking out members](./kick-or-ban-someone-from-your-community.md) is delayed until the control node is online.
|
||||
- Your community can't verify if members in [token-gated channels](./set-up-channel-permissions.md) still hold the required tokens.
|
||||
- Members who could not access a private channel for not [meeting the requirements](./understand-token-requirements-in-channels.md) can't join the channel even if they meet them now.
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
Keep the Status desktop app working as the [community control node](./about-the-control-node-in-status-communities.md) online every day or at least once every six days.

title: Delegate admin functions to community members
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
Currently, you can only delegate admin functions using Status desktop. [:octicons-desktop-download-16: Download Status desktop](https://status.im/get).
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
Community owners have total control over their communities, including settings, membership approvals and permissions. In addition, owners can delegate administrative functions to other community members through the [admin role](./permissions-by-role-in-status-communities.md). Admins play a similar role to owners, but with some important differences. Check out [Permissions by role in Status Communities](./permissions-by-role-in-status-communities.md) for more information.
|
||||
|
||||
To delegate admin functions to others, owners use [token-based community permissions](./set-up-your-community-permissions.md). Tokens are digital assets in a blockchain (such as the [Ethereum blockchain](../getting-started/about-the-ethereum-blockchain.md)), including assets (virtual coins), collectibles and ENS names.
|
||||
|
||||
## What to expect
|
||||
|
||||
- To delegate admin functions, assign the `Become admin` community permission to a collectible or ENS name owner.
|
||||
- Using ENS names to delegate admin functions is more straightforward than using collectibles, but it requires the admin to own the ENS name.
|
||||
- You can create a maximum of five different `Become admin` community-level permissions, but you can apply a single permission to multiple members.
|
||||
- To stop delegating admin functions, [self-destruct the admin token](./self-destruct-a-token-remotely.md) or [delete the admin permission](./set-up-your-community-permissions#delete-community-permissions.md).
|
||||
|
||||
## Choose your delegation token
|
||||
|
||||
You can delegate [admin functions](./permissions-by-role-in-status-communities.md) to others using a collectible or an ENS name.
|
||||
|
||||
If you use a collectible, follow this process:
|
||||
|
||||
- [x] [Mint](./mint-tokens-for-your-community.md) a non-transferable (soulbound) and remotely-destructible collectible.
|
||||
- [x] [Airdrop the collectible](./how-to-airdrop-tokens-in-status.md) to the person you wish to delegate admin functions to.
|
||||
- [x] [Delegate the admin function](#delegate-admin-functions-using-collectibles-or-ens-names) using token-based community permissions.
|
||||
|
||||
Using ENS names, you don't need to mint and airdrop any token. You [delegate admin functions](#delegate-admin-functions-using-collectibles-or-ens-names) to a specific ENS name owner (such as alice.acme.eth) or a group of people under the same ENS domain (such as acme.eth).
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
Assets don't have the non-transferable (soulbound) and self-destructing properties collectibles have, making it harder to remove admin functions from other users. Avoid using assets to delegate admin functions.

Status uses a [peer-to-peer network](../messaging-and-web3-browser/about-status-messages#peer-to-peer-messaging.md) that temporarily stores data of your community. Because of this decentralized architecture, there is no one-click way to delete a community and all associated data.

title: Grant exclusive access with tokens
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
As a community owner in Status, you can use tokens to create different access levels within your community. These levels apply to both the community overall and individual channels within it. This approach helps to keep your community engaging and organized.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, you can use tokens to organize a conference with community access limited to token holders and exclusive channels just for speakers. If you are an artist or content creator, you can set up a community for your fans and give certain fans access to exclusive channels where you release new content.
|
||||
|
||||
The options are many, allowing you to create an environment tailored to your community's needs. For more examples of using tokens to provide exclusive access to your community, check out [Token-based access to communities and channels](./token-based-access-to-communities-and-channels.md).
|
||||
|
||||
## Practical example: use a Status Community to organize an event
|
||||
|
||||
If you use a Status Community to organize a conference or event, you might want a community open to all interested individuals. Yet, you also need a space just for the speakers.
|
||||
|
||||
With tokens, you can limit access to your community only to the individuals invested in the conference topic. Additionally, you can create an exclusive channel within the community, only accessible to the event speakers. This provides a platform for them to discuss and collaborate on the conference preparation.
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 1: mint the community tokens
|
||||
|
||||
You start minting the community tokens you need to organize the event. In this particular example, you consider two different tokens:
|
||||
|
||||
- A general-access token for attendees.
|
||||
- A VIP-access token only for speakers.
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
Currently, you can only mint collectibles.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
- [x] [Mint a new collectible](./mint-tokens-for-your-community.md) to grant general access to the event attendees.
|
||||
- [x] Customize the general-access [collectible options](./mint-tokens-for-your-community#set-up-collectible-options.md). For example, you may want to turn on `Unlimited supply` and turn off the `Not transferable (Soulbound)` option.
|
||||
- [x] [Mint a collectible](./mint-tokens-for-your-community.md) to grant exclusive access to the event speakers.
|
||||
- [x] Configure the VIP-access [collectible options](./mint-tokens-for-your-community#set-up-collectible-options.md). In this case, you may want to turn off `Ulimited supply` and turn on the `Not transferable (Soulbound)` and `Remote self-destruct` options.
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
You can't change the collectible description or options after minting.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 2: create the token-based permissions
|
||||
|
||||
To create the permissions, check out [Set up your community permissions](./set-up-your-community-permissions.md). In this example, you create two different permissions using the tokens from the [previous step](#step-1-mint-the-community-tokens):
|
||||
|
||||
- Community-level permission to grant general access to the conference attendees.
|
||||
- Channel-level permission to grant exclusive channel access to the event speakers.
|
||||
|
||||
You may want to configure these permissions as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
| Scope | Applies to | Variable | Option |
|
||||
| :-------------- | :--------------------- | :-------------- | :----------------------------------- |
|
||||
| Community-level | Attendees and speakers | `Who holds` | Your general-access token |
|
||||
| | | `Is allowed to` | :desktop-member: Become member |
|
||||
| | | `In` | Your community |
|
||||
| Channel-level | Speakers only | `Who holds` | Your VIP-access token |
|
||||
| | | `Is allowed to` | :desktop-member: Become member |
|
||||
| | | `In` | Your exclusive speakers-only channel |
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
You can also set up exclusive access to communities or channels for holders of a particular ENS domain (for example, alice.acme.eth or bob.acme.eth).
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 3: distribute tokens to attendees and speakers
|
||||
|
||||
After you [create the permissions](#step-2-create-the-token-based-permissions), you can distribute the tokens via [airdrops](./how-to-airdrop-tokens-in-status.md) to all the conference's participants:
|
||||
|
||||
- [x] Airdrop the general-access token to the conference attendees and speakers.
|
||||
- [x] Airdrop the VIP-access token to the conference speakers only.

You can import a Status Community someone [shares with you](./invite-people-to-a-status-community.md) using the link, QR code or public's community key. Importing a community can also be helpful when you need help finding the community.
|
||||

title: Join a channel
|

|
||||
|
||||
With Status, you can organize your conversations with community members into designated spaces called [channels](channels-your-quick-start-guide.md). Channels bring the right people and information together for a common purpose, like a specific project or topic.
|
||||
|
||||
All members of a [community](about-status-communities.md) can browse and join public channels. For private channels, you must [meet the requirements](understand-token-requirements-in-channels.md) to join the channel. To maintain access to private channels, hold the necessary tokens at all times.
|
||||
|
||||
## Join a public channel
|
||||
|
||||
All members can join channels that don't have a :mobile-locked-lock: lock icon next to their names. When you join a community, you automatically get access to these channels.
|
||||
|
||||
=== "Mobile"
|
||||
|
||||
1. From the tab bar, tap :mobile-communities: **Communities**.
|
||||
1. Tap the community with the channel you want to join.

1. Tap on the public channel.
