## Next
### Open-source hosting backend (Apache-2.0)
Publishing the hosting backend - the server that runs on the host phone and holds your group's data - as **open source under the Apache License 2.0**, so it can be independently read, audited and self-built. The app and client stay proprietary; the [[Notices/Licence|Licence]] page sets out the split.
### Encryption (in development)
Phlip encrypts message and event content today, but it is **not complete or dependable yet**: some metadata isn't covered (time fields, names, icons, routing, pending-join IPs), LAN connections can be unencrypted, and it needs specialist security review. This is the main security workstream - until it matures, please don't rely on it. The [[FAQs]] state the current boundary plainly.
### Chat bridges (WhatsApp & Discord)
Connecting a Phlip server to a WhatsApp chat or Discord server - so messages become events and RSVPs post back - is planned but not yet built. Today you can share an event as a card image with a join link; deeper two-way bridges are future work.
### Calendar integrations
Connect Phlip events to your daily calendar app to seamlessly sync your work and social life whilst keeping them distinct.
### Ship it properly
Publish the full Android app, then an **iOS client** (browser access is the interim path for iPhone friends).
### Improve location options
Currently this relies on user input, ideally we can link to a map services without impacting data protection and integrity of the app's functionality.
### Backup servers
To mitigate risk of lost data, allow servers to have a backup. Likewise servers will be exportable and importable for full content or structure (e.g. custom event types) to replicate servers for multiple groups.
### Custom server styling
Support for custom css per server to give hosts identity.
### Improved haptics and sound effects
Possibly even custom options to improve feel of scrolling and flicking cards.
### Further hosting enhancements
We would like to expand hosting options as this develops so that it could support larger groups on more devices.
## Not planned
- Photo uploads in chat or event galleries - chat stays coordination-only; Memories photos stay on your device.
- Feature paywalls - supporter purchases are cosmetics only.
- Notifications - Phlip exists to be be browsed when you are ready, in your own time.
