Editor's Overview

ArcaneChat is a internet application developed by Asiel Díaz Benítez, packaged as a single Android APK of version 2.6 weighing in at 24.71 MB. The package targets Android 4.1+ and above. Below you'll find the publisher's own description, a quick spec sheet, and a short buyer-beware checklist so you know exactly what you're installing before tapping download.

Install Checklist

  1. Only download through the button on this page — never from third-party mirrors or shortened links, which are the most common way malware spreads.
  2. File size is a light 24.71 MB, so it installs quickly even on modest connections.
  3. This build is signed by "Asiel Díaz Benítez" — always verify the developer name matches what's listed on the app's official store page before installing an update.
  4. After install, Android may prompt you to allow "Install from unknown sources" — approve only this one install, then revoke the permission in Settings > Apps > Special access.
  5. We link directly to the APK file or the publisher's repository; we do not modify the binary. Always run a virus scan after any sideloaded install.

ArcaneChat is a Delta Chat client and was created with a focus on usability, good user experience, and saving data plan. Also the app usually experiments with new features that eventually might get added to the official Delta Chat client.

Main differences with official Delta Chat client:


  • Support for having multiple mini-apps open at the same time and you can keep navigating the chats while you have a mini-app open

  • Support for some markdown styles in text messages (bold, italic, strike, etc.)

  • Support for displaying Telegram's animated stickers (.tgs files)

  • Support for SVG images previews

  • Multiple color themes/skins

  • It is possible to disable profiles to completely disconnect them saving data/bandwidth

  • Clicking on a message with a POI location, will open the POI on the map

  • Last-seen status of contacts is shown in your contact list, like in WhatsApp, Telegram, etc.

  • Videos are played in loop, useful for short GIF videos

  • Verified icon is shown in the chat list for the "Device Messages" and "Saved Messages" chat to avoid fishing attempts by scammer pretending to be the official chats

  • Voice messages have more aggressive compression in "worse quality" mode to save data plan

  • Automatic download of messages limited to 640KB by default

  • Profile's display name is always shown in the app's title bar instead of the name of the app

  • For mini-apps developers: there are some extra features in the WebXDC API, check https://github.com/ArcaneChat/android/#webxdc

  • Better settings organization with additional "Privacy" section
