ILLUSION 0.8.3 - WINDOWS PREVIEW
Private. Customizable. Free.

Open Illusion-0.8.3.exe on Windows 10/11 with .NET Framework 4.8.
A configured download includes its public connection. Existing installs keep
their connection; use your host bot's /connect invitation if needed.
The Cloudflare-hosted connection works while the owner's laptop is off.
Availability depends on Cloudflare, network access and free-plan quotas.
Older laptop-hosted connections still require their host to stay online.

The shared UI catalog includes 22 languages, including Greek and Vietnamese.
Illusion is the product name and stays unchanged across languages.

Usernames: 2-24 Latin letters, numbers, _ and -. Case-insensitive.
Passwords: at least 10 characters. Back up your key in Settings.
Your account password cannot recover chats on another Windows profile.
If you still have this profile's device key, use Forgot password to reset it.

The Telegram Mini App is served at the relay's /app/ URL. It needs a working
public HTTPS connection before the bot's Open Illusion button can work.
It is a web app inside Telegram and trusts code served by its host.
Restore your .illusionkey to use an existing account in that browser.

Report evidence sharing is optional and unchecked by default. Moderators
can read submitted evidence; there is no private chat browser.

Message text is encrypted on your device. New photo/video attachments are not
end-to-end encrypted; avoid sending sensitive media. The relay sees accounts,
contact pairs, timestamps and sizes. Compare Verify keys through
another channel. This custom protocol has no forward secrecy or independent
audit. Video playback briefly uses a local decrypted MP4, deleted on close.

Portable, unsigned, no auto-updater. Use a trusted host and verify SHA-256.
Not affiliated with Sol's RNG or Telegram.
