Facebook alternative

Safegram: a Facebook Alternative Built Around Verified People

Safegram is a free social app for iPhone and Android that covers what most people use Facebook for: posting to friends, private messaging, groups, local events and buying or selling. The difference is the defaults: identity verification, end-to-end encrypted direct messages, a chronological feed and no behavioural ad network.

What Safegram replaces from Facebook

Most people stay on Facebook for a handful of things. Safegram has a counterpart for each one, in a single app.

  • News Feed → a chronological feed of people you follow
  • Messenger → end-to-end encrypted direct messages
  • Groups → Circles, interest-based communities
  • Events → Plans, real-world meetups and activities
  • Marketplace → Safegram Exchange, where sellers verify their identity

Why people look for a Facebook alternative

The common reasons are fake profiles, Marketplace scams, a feed ranked by engagement, and an ad model built on tracking personal activity. Safegram's answer is to make identity verification visible with the Peacemaker Ring, keep messages encrypted end to end, and not run a behavioural ad network.

Buying and selling with more trust

On Safegram Exchange, users must verify before they can list a service or product, and listings go live straight away. Verification is a trust signal, not a guarantee, so the usual care still applies when meeting or paying. See the Facebook Marketplace alternative page for detail.

Who it suits

Friends and families who want a calmer, more private place to share; local communities and clubs; small businesses and creators in Ireland who want to be found by verified people. Safegram's first focus market is Ireland, and the app is available on iPhone and Android.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best Facebook alternative?

It depends on what you use Facebook for. If you want friends, private chat, groups, events and a marketplace in one app with identity verification and encrypted messages, Safegram covers all of those. Bluesky or Mastodon suit public posting better; Signal suits messaging only.

Is Safegram free?

Yes. Safegram is free to download and use on iPhone and Android. Optional paid packages exist for businesses and creators who want more tools or visibility.

Does Safegram have groups and events like Facebook?

Yes. Circles are interest-based communities, similar to Facebook Groups, and Plans are real-world activities you can create or join, similar to Facebook Events.

Are Safegram messages private?

Direct messages on Safegram are end-to-end encrypted, so only the people in the conversation can read them.
