How TillTom works
A temporary one-to-one chat for people who just met. No app, no account.
1. One person creates a chat
You tap “Create a 24-hour chat,” pick a nickname, and TillTom shows a QR code. Your browser generates the chat’s encryption key at this moment — it never leaves your device except inside the QR.
2. The other person scans it
They scan the QR with their phone camera, read a short privacy note, and pick their own nickname. The QR works once: as soon as one person joins, the code is used up. Unused codes expire after 5 minutes.
3. You chat till tomorrow
Once both people are in, the chat is live for up to 24 hours. Messages are encrypted in your browser before they’re stored, and decrypted in the other browser. The time remaining is shown at the top.
4. It disappears
Either person can end the chat for both at any time, and it ends automatically at 24 hours. After that, the encrypted messages are deleted by routine cleanup. There are no accounts and no backups, so a chat lives only in the two browsers and on the server until it’s cleaned up.
Sharing contact details
There’s no “exchange contacts” feature. If you want to share a number or handle, just type it in the chat — only if you want to. TillTom doesn’t verify anything you type.
