Session - Private Messenger App Reviews

Lot of stuff gets filtered for no clear reason. Weird

This app is great if you want privacy, the only problem is that I’ve been having an issue where it says I have pending message requests, but when I click on it the all disappear

Please bring back the option to delete messages after 1-5 minutes after send and read.

I can’t hear the other person’s voice after the call

just one recommendation allow camera to work with out mic access And a way to manually clear text session

In general, this app works really well, but it would benefit from having a separate passcode in the app from the phone passcode. Also, I would like a toggle to disable face ID within the app rather than in the settings of the iPhone. Other than that, pretty darn good!

Whenever I try to forward a media file from one conversation to the another using the share extension on iOS within the Session app, it will send and have a sent receipt but the other person would never actually receive it. Very frustrating. Also, increase file size sharing capacity, please.

When trying to record a video the flash doesn’t turn on that needs to be fixed

A fortress in the digital ether, this app ensures privacy and security together. Encryption's ballet, a clandestine art, a masterpiece of smart. I would like to see an option to add your own worded password to the app to enhance its security. I feel Face ID is a semi secure option, but anyone can get in if they know your phone passcode.

There was a personal pin for the app, not tied to Face ID or phone passcode. Otherwise I feel it isn’t 100% secure if my phone pin is known or seen by others, I feel like it adds another layer of protection that other e2e messengers have. There is also a bit of lag on messages, and I do not get notified for each new message.

I really enjoy using this app as it makes me feel more secure with my conversations, just a couple things i wish were added...1. option to put a passcode on the app 2. not being able to screenshot messages. Other than that this is all around really amazing App!

I use this app across devices with my family. Sessions has always impressed with its reliability no matter the device brand, worth using if you value your privacy.

Excellent app. Please add Apple CarPlay support.

Don't developers learn from other people's search group owners? What do you talk about alone? There is no search group.

I got this app to replace Wickr and I like that it doesn’t delete messages after 6 days. However I have noticed that I can get a notification but when I open the app, there’s nothing there. I usually have to force close and reopen the app a few times in order for it to show what the other person has sent. Not sure if there is a feature to change this or if it’s just the way the app is.

Like this app for the privacy and convenience however even with the new update I still don’t get notifications I’ve received a message. Only when I have the app open and on my inbox do the new messages load. I do have all notifications set on the app and the device as well. Others I’ve talked to still have this problem as well. This app has more potential if notifications without being on the app would work more consistently.

The app has everything I’m looking for, but it’s annoying that notifications only show when the app is open.

None of my friends and I are getting notifications unless the app is open. Push notifications are turned on on both the device and app. Disappearing messages timer is set to 1 week, but it’s been 2 weeks and the messages are still there. Please fix these issues because otherwise this app is great

Great-privacy-centered app which requires little technical knowledge to set-up. Some acquaintances of mine have been complaining of some notification issues. The app needs to be open in order to get messages with their subsequent notifications. Tried switching some privacy options around and still no luck. Even turned on the calling feature to “kick” the app into sending notifications without the app opened… As us plebs are not behind the curtain of Apple’s inner-workings, won’t you please fi

Let us change the size of the text/bubbles. That seem too big right now

Recently noticed the ability to backup on iCloud. What data is stored on iCloud? Messages?

Sent two images (together) from IOS to an android phone the receiver only saw the incoming bars swipe continuously w/o the photos actually arriving

Was my only real gripe and delivered much sooner than expected…..5 stars from me for that!

I turned it on but still don’t see it.

I love the app and it’s simple design. Very quick and easy to set up. The only gripe i have is the call system, I know it’s in beta but it’s a must for me. I want to replace discord with this app eventually and I hope it will be ready by that time. Please add group calling, that would help me out a lot. Also, the calls take a while to get in touch. Please make something like a call for trusted contacts. Overall great alternative messaging app, thank you for doing this loki project, can’t wait to

So far I love the app. I think it’s intuitive and has great features. I was wondering if apple watch and carplay support is in the works?

your app very help for us in iran revolution 2022 🇮🇷

Very good app. Problem is notification is not working last ver 2.1.1 😔😔

During video calls the screen goes to sleep. Please fix this so the screen stays awake during video calls. Please update so this app can run on an Apple Watch. Needs video call capabilities. Sharing a link from safari needs improvement to actually share the link instead of as an attachment. Please add easy ability for users to create relay nodes from raspberry pi.

hello session team , thanks for your awesome project , i think adding channels to session like telegram would be a good thing.

Push Notifs not working properly. Latest version. Unfortunately makes it unusable in its current state.

Hello there. I set disappearing messages for different time and they just don’t work. App is not deleting messages. That’s is so frustrating. Also notifications aren’t working correctly when I call to someone. They are not notified about the call. The most frustrating is disappearing messages. Could you please advice what should I do with that?

Add horizontal view for iPad plz.

Please add more feature such as deleting message for everyone on android phone, clearly all group chat message, ability to ad proxy layer, change path. Thanks for all. Also increase the file size more that 6 mb

Thats very good and secure !! Special for the country with limited access to internet!!!! And filtration
