Session info, screenshots & reviews Alternatives to Session

Session is a new breed of private messenger, built on a unique network of user-operated servers spread all over the world. With no central servers, Session can’t leak or sell your data. And with Session’s private routing protocols, your messages are completely anonymous. No one ever knows who you’re talking to, what you’re saying, or even your IP address.

• Fully anonymous account creation: No phone number or email needed to create a Session ID

• Decentralised server network: No data breaches, no central point of failure

• No metadata logging: Session doesn't store, track, or log your messaging metadata

• IP address protection: Device IP addresses are never exposed to the person you're talking to or the servers holding your data

• Closed groups: Private, end-to-end encrypted group chats for up to 10 people

• Secure attachments: Share voice snippets, photos, and files with Session's secure encryption and privacy protections

• Multi-device syncing: One Session ID for your phone and computer

• Free and open-source: Don’t take our word for it — check Session's code yourself

Session is free as in free speech, free as in free beer, and free of ads and trackers. Session is built and maintained by the Loki Foundation, Australia’s first privacy tech not-for-profit organisation. Take back your online privacy today — download Session.

Better than Signal. Not necessary to leave a phone number.

An honest fork of signal, where the whole dev team tries to make it the best they can.

When I tried to install the desktop version, Windows Defender responded: "Win32.CoinMiner is embedded in the program."
