Raise To Answer vs ThreatScoopOnionChat
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
Raise To Answer
Simply hold your phone to your ear to answer an incoming call. When the app detects the phone is near your ear during an incoming call, it will beep 5 times and then answer the call. No ads, no unnecessary permissions and no unnecessary battery drain. Easy to enable and disable. Doesn't replace your incoming call screen, so you don't need to learn anything new. This app is Open Source. The source code is available on https://github.com/TheLastProject/RaiseToAnswer.
ThreatScoopOnionChat
# ThreadScoopOnionChat This version is a fork from " https://github.com/session-foundation/session-android ", enfocado en la privacidad. ## How Did ThreadScoopOnionChat Come About? I have always been a fan of privacy and security in communications, and I am constantly researching potential security breaches in messaging applications. ThreadScoopOnionChat emerged after the analysis of this blog "https://soatok.blog/2025/01/14/dont-use-session-signal-fork/", in which several aspects are described as to why using Session is not recommended, and I wondered how it is possible that a foundation focused on privacy—with the grants and support it receives—has not been able to improve this protocol. I still do not understand the answer, since my resources are much smaller than those of a foundation compared to that of a person who is simply a fan of privacy and security. In this blog, certain problems were described: 1> "https://soatok.blog/2025/01/14/dont-use-session-signal-fork/#insufficient-entropy-ed25519" 2> "https://soatok.blog/2025/01/14/dont-use-session-signal-fork/#in-band-negotiation" 3> "https://soatok.blog/2025/01/14/dont-use-session-signal-fork/#public-keys-aes-gcm" This is a forked version privacy focussed from Session.
