What is Quicksy?

Quicksy is a robust XMPP client that streamlines communication by automatically discovering and suggesting potential contacts based on the phone numbers in your address book. Built as a spin-off of the popular Jabber/XMPP client Conversations, Quicksy offers users a familiar and intuitive interface while providing powerful XMPP functionality. The app can be downloaded for free from the Google Play Store, and its source code is licensed under the GPLv3 and available on Github, ensuring transparency and accessibility. Quicksy's core feature is its seamless contact synchronization, where users can sign up with their phone number, and the app will automatically suggest potential contacts matching the numbers in the user's address book. This eliminates the need for manual contact management, making it easier for users to connect with their network. Furthermore, Quicksy's integration with the broader XMPP ecosystem allows users to communicate with any public XMPP server, expanding the reach of their conversations The user interface of Quicksy is designed to closely mirror that of Conversations, ensuring a smooth transition for users who may choose to migrate between the two apps. This attention to detail and user experience reinforces Quicksy's commitment to providing a seamless and familiar communication platform
