Scope verdict

Ownership reviewed, controller unresolved

This service remains visible for context, but it is not counted or recommended as a European-controlled option.

How we classify services

TeleGuard is an instant messaging app from Switzerland, with apps for iOS and Android. It covers what you expect from a modern messenger, letting you exchange messages with your contacts from a phone.

Running the service from Switzerland places it outside US jurisdiction and makes it a European alternative to the messaging apps most people default to. TeleGuard is free, so it suits anyone who wants to move private conversations to a Swiss provider without paying for it.
