If you have Internet it uses tor and there's no main server to rely on.

If there's no Internet it can use Bluetooth and Wi-Fi locally.

Well I have to admit, those are some pretty snazzy tricks...

Using tor on a per app basis is pretty cool, I wonder what the security implications are for that? If some, but not all of your traffic is going through tor, I wonder if it's easier to disentangle somehow... Probably it's still secure though.
