Comments on Session - Private Messenger for Android

★★★★☆ Micheal ? · Jun 22, 2026
It's nice I like the fact that you need my account ID to message me so no one can't message me without my permission
★★★★★ Nikita Rani · Jun 22, 2026
Dude it's so good I use it in my hostel it's so secure nd the name itself sounds like some app meeded for study
★★★★★ Nandu · Jun 24, 2026
Beautiful UI, Unmatched Privacy! Absolute perfection. Session proves that you don't have to sacrifice a beautiful, modern user interface to get world-class security. No phone number required, completely decentralized, and a stunningly clean layout. This is what the future of private messaging looks like! Highly recommended.
★☆☆☆☆ Bam Boom · Jul 8, 2026
It's a great messaging app. If you don't mind getting your message 5 hours later. My wife sent a message @4 and I got it@ 9. The one earlier only took a second or two. I really don't think it's as secure as they say. I mean come on. Who was holding on to that message for 5 hours while they were reviewing all the others? You all are stupid. It doesn't take 5 hours to travel around the world at near the speed of light. Who intercepted the message to slow it down? Maybe some dark web perves?
★★☆☆☆ Anil Nilayam · Jun 19, 2026
Though it's better, still it hasn't any reliable edit system and deletion for both sides. Only pathos.
