Statements regarding recent incident of certain infamous Android Telegram fork(s): - First thing first, Momogram is an independently maintained Telegram client fork and is not affiliated with the forks that steals your phone number. - We're fully open source, there's no hidden modules or closed components - We don't do obfuscation, release APKs are not additionally obfuscated - APK filenames include the commit hash, you can checkout and build the exact version, the resulting binary should match the release - There's no collection of user personal data, no additional tracking, telemetry or analytics bullshit Some ppl may say: Using any third-party client inherently carry risks, and users should evaluate and understand them before use. but obviously it's not possible to make everyone do their own audits. Therefore, beyond simply stating risks, the more practical goal is to build a verifiable and trustable community — where users can rely on real open source code, reproducible builds, and community review to decide who and what to trust. PS. An active sessions checker to raise awareness is in WIP, will show a one-time warning if logged in with known potentially malicious unofficial client.
