RELAY NODES
Relays are servers that store and transmit Nostr events.
Connect to multiple relays for better censorship resistance.
🧅 TOR / ONION RELAYS
Connect to .onion relays for maximum privacy. Your IP is hidden
from relay operators and your ISP can't see which relays you use.
Requirements:
→ Android: Install Orbot and enable VPN mode for this browser
→ Desktop: Use Tor Browser or configure a SOCKS5 proxy (127.0.0.1:9050)
→ Note: Onion relays use ws:// (not wss://) — this is normal and secure within Tor

ENCRYPTED MESSAGES 🔒 NIP-04
IDENTITY VAULT
Choose how to connect your Nostr identity. We recommend
Amber for Android users
— your private key never leaves the signer app.
Or use Private Key Login for quick testing.
AMBER SIGNER
RECOMMENDED
▸
Amber is the premier Nostr key manager for Android.
Your private key stays safely inside Amber — Glowstr never sees it.
Supports NIP-55 (Android intents) and NIP-46 (remote signing).
1
Install Amber from GitHub or F-Droid. Import or create your Nostr key inside Amber.
2
Tap Connect with Amber below. On Android, Amber opens automatically. On desktop, you'll paste from clipboard.
3
Approve in Amber. Your pubkey returns to Glowstr — you're in. All future signing goes through Amber securely.
QR CODE LOGIN (NIP-46)
SCAN
▸
Scan a QR code with Amber, nsec.app, or any NIP-46 compatible signer.
Your private key never touches this device — the signer handles all signing remotely.
BROWSER EXTENSION (NIP-07)
DESKTOP
▸
Connect using a browser extension like Alby, nos2x, or Nostr Connect. The extension holds your key and signs events for you.
PRIVATE KEY LOGIN
QUICK LOGIN
▸
⚠ SECURITY WARNING
Pasting your private key into ANY web app exposes it to risk: browser extensions, XSS attacks, clipboard history, and shoulder-surfing can all compromise your key.
This method works and lets you read the global feed AND post notes — but your key lives in browser memory for the session. For daily use, Amber or a NIP-07 extension is far safer since your key never touches the web page.

Paste your hex private key (64 chars) or nsec1... below.
Your public key will be derived automatically and you'll be able
to read feeds and publish notes immediately.
NEW IDENTITY
NEW USER
▸
Generate a fresh Nostr keypair right in your browser.
You'll get a private key and public key instantly, and you
can start posting to the global feed immediately.
⚠ CRITICAL: Copy your private key and save it somewhere safe. If you lose it, your identity is gone forever. For long-term use, import your private key into Amber.
