Bisq Connect is a lightweight utility app that allows users to securely connect to a trusted Bisq2 Node. By scanning a QR
code generated by your node, you can establish a direct and private communication channel — no more manually typing
addresses and passwords.

Key Features:

  • QR Code Pairing: Scan a QR code from your Bisq2 node to connect instantly. The QR code securely encodes the connection
    address, encryption credentials, and a one-time pairing token that expires after 5 minutes.
  • Multiple Connection Modes: Connect over your local WiFi (LAN) with TLS encryption and certificate pinning, or remotely
    over Tor with optional client authentication for maximum privacy.
  • Session-Based Authentication: After pairing, the app uses session tokens instead of passwords. No plaintext credentials
    are stored or transmitted.
  • Automatic Profile Sync: Your Bisq2 profiles are fetched automatically from your trusted node — no separate setup required
    on mobile.
  • Privacy-Preserving: The app does not store, track, or share any user data. All connections are encrypted: TLS for local
    networks, Tor for remote access.
  • Lightweight & Efficient: Designed for minimal CPU, battery, and data usage while providing a seamless connection
    experience.
  • User-Controlled Access: You choose which node to connect to, ensuring complete control over your connections.

Bisq Connect is a utility tool meant to facilitate node interaction and enhance accessibility within the Bisq ecosystem.

Requirements:

  • A Bisq2 node running on your computer or server
  • Android 7.0+ (SDK 24)
