Seeing as Snapchat as a lot of security issues with it, an idea came to mind so I wanted to get a consensus of how interesting this project will be to others.
The general idea is as follows:
- Create an Xposed module that hooks into Snapchat much like KeepChat or SnapShare and encrypt the photo/video using PGP before sending
- Recipient will decrypt it and view as normal
There are already tools that can manage the keys such as AGP.
This idea can even go as far as quickly delivering any kind of encrypted data by embedding the data inside the image and using SnapChat's fast server as the delivery mechanism. The data can be saved using the same method as KeepChat.
(I am not quite sure on the legality of using Snapchat's servers to send small files other than images and videos.)
This will make for a nice way of quickly "emailing" documents and files to others.
