Lethean Sentiment & Goals

We hope that you are all having a great start to the month of May. The last few weeks have been challenging for the community as well as for the Core Team. However, each challenge presents us with the opportunity to come out stronger than before, and we have done just that. We would like to highlight that each member of our team is committed to see Lethean succeed and become adopted by the masses. We are all working diligently towards the same goal of making the project a success. Lethean is a company with a mission to empower internet privacy, so the passion for a more private internet is what drives us!

We are very excited to say that In the next weeks Lethean will be undergoing some bigger operational and image changes. Our upcoming new roadmap will also reflect these changes. We look forward to sharing more information with you in our next update. Stay tuned!

With all of that being said, we would like to update the community on the progress that has been made over the past few weeks.

Cross-Platform VPN Development

Over the last few weeks, the development team has been working on setting the stage for contracted workers to create a more friendly GUI for all operating systems, as well as a mobile VPN. We were aware that our project had a higher entry barrier for new users or users that had become accustomed to the larger VPN services of our competitors. Our goal has been and continues to be, large scale adoption. With that in mind, we needed to shift our focus and create a better experience for the end user. With these changes, we will be asking our community and new users to provide us with feedback along the way so we can create the best product possible.

We are in the beginning stages of hiring outside developers to assist us with the creation of the new desktop GUI and the mobile VPN. In the above image, you can see an early concept of the mobile VPN client. Once we have selected the ideal candidates, we anticipate the completion of a testable product in four to six weeks. This will ensure that we are in line with our goal of having a mobile VPN in the third quarter of 2019. As work begins on the mobile VPN and the new desktop GUI, we will update our community with the progress.

As a final note, the mobile VPN and the updated GUI will not be the only changes that will be made in the future. Our June first update will provide you with a comprehensive list of changes that will be coming soon. We would have shared them with you during this update. However, we wanted additional time to ensure that these changes will be implemented in the way that we are currently envisioning them.
