ANDROID / 0.9.16 (116)

Livara,pocket edition.

The 0.9.16 Flutter build, not a website in a frame. Same account and conversations, encrypted local storage, verified updates, LGS1 private-group text and media, and deliberate system permissions.

The release

Four changes you can feel.

The version, build number, checksum and APK below all describe this exact release—not a generic download page.

release.0.9.16
  • Changed contact identities are quarantined and require your approval before Livara creates a replacement secure session.
  • Existing local history moves into SQLCipher through a recoverable migration; interrupted migration no longer sacrifices the original database.
  • Update metadata is signed, and downloaded APKs must match the published size, SHA-256 and Android signing lineage before installation.
  • Notification permission is requested only from Settings, while pattern lock, stories, media controls and settings expose TalkBack-friendly actions and touch targets.

Store reviewNone

The honest one. A direct install skips the review that would normally sit between you and a modified file. The digest replaces it.

BEFORE YOU INSTALL
The digest

And why you should actually use it

This build is signed with the project verification key. Verifying the digest takes about fifteen seconds and is the difference between installing our app and installing something wearing it.

INSTALL
Install

Four steps. One of them matters.

01

Download it from this site

Not from a mirror, not from a link someone forwarded you. The digest below only means anything if the file came from here.

02

Verify the digest before anything else

Use the Proof Lab on this site, or sha256sum on your own machine. If the two strings differ by a single character, delete the file.

03

Open it and allow the install

Android will ask whether your browser is allowed to install apps. Say yes, install, then turn that permission back off afterwards if you like.

04

Sign in

Same account as the web client. If you are restoring the encryption identity on a new device, have your recovery phrase ready. It does not restore chat history or ratchet sessions.

Prefer not to sideload anything at all? The browser client is the same account and the same guarantees, with nothing to check.
