chriscord

Voice, video, screen sharing and chat that you host yourself. Run a server on your own machine, invite your friends, and your messages stay on hardware you control.

Download for Windows

Checking for the latest version...

For Windows 10 and 11 (64-bit). Mac and Linux builds are coming later.

Getting started

  1. Run the installer

    Open ChriscordSetup.exe. Since the app isn't code signed yet, Windows might show a "Windows protected your PC" warning. Click More info and then Run anyway.

  2. Join a server

    Add a server in the app and paste an invite link from whoever runs it. Or connect to your own server if you're hosting one.

  3. Updates happen on their own

    Chriscord checks for a new version every time it starts, so you only need to download it once per computer.

Host your own server

The server runs on Linux, so a home server, a spare PC or a cheap VPS will all work. Build it with Cargo, install it as a service, connect to it from the app, and send your friends an invite link. The server repo has the full setup steps.
