As of now, Molly lastest release was in 31 July (Version v8.19.2-4).
It contains vulnerabilities that had been simply fixed in mainline Signal.
Take for example the latest exploit disclosed in October, it has been fixed in Signal 8.27. 1. Meanwhile Molly remains vulnerable.
It’s currently recommended to use mainline Signal and delete Molly till they at least return to updating their app adequately, if they ever will.
I use molly because i have an android smartphone and tablet and running both with signal is not possible with signal. (Maybe the changed it? I have to check it)
They did! (If you’re talking about pairing a tablet with your smart phone like how their desktop app pairs).

Perfect, will switch back to signal.
On an unrelated not my signal backup has corruptes sticker cache, so all old stickers are not showing correctly, does anyone know a way to force it to download it a new one?
Thanks, I’ve been using Molly on my tab for a while. Have now installed Signal
