Molly is a hardened version of the official Signal for Android app. It claims the following features,
- Protects database with passphrase encryption
- Locks down the app automatically after you go a certain time without unlocking your device
- Securely shreds sensitive data from RAM
- Allows you to delete contacts and stop sharing your profile
- Clears call notifications together with expiring messages
- Disables debug logs
- No SMS integration
There are two flavors of it,
- Molly - Similar to the official Signal app, plus the additional features
- Molly-FOSS - Doesn’t rely on any Google components for location, push notifications & face blurring, plus all the additional features

I’ve been using it for a couple of days & it is pretty decent so far.
Anyone here already tried or are using it? How’s the experience so far?
It doesn’t route traffic through Tor, but through their own similar network called LokiNet.
Correction: Session hasn’t received Lokinet integration yet. It’s a general misconception.
