About this app

the Another Instant Messenger is not a messenger, don't believe the words.

we just offer you a standardized xmpp-client with predicted features which work equally on all platforms. in our clients we have realized pure XMPP(Jabber) and you won't step on a hedgehog unexpectedly when you communicate with another xmpp client or server.

because you buy our open-sourced bitcoin, we decided to offer you to buy our open-sourced messenger. ha-ha joke. it's free, really. GPLv3, whatever.

for Android, it's just an improved fork of Conversations,

all necessary XEP's was realized by Conversations devs but we added a cherry on top of this. on the server side we are offering free to use Prosody server, just connect to another.im, but we are encouroge you to don't trust us, self-host.

OTR encryption is also supported as 'secret chats' due to otr has been designed for one-time sessions and the concept of 'secret chats' fully corresponds to the idea of the OTR.

also you can just download the source code, compile it and install.

only those who seeks will realize the way to pay us, we can offer you additional server-side features and some telecommunication magic on our narayana.im

Installation Guide

1

Open Settings on your Android device

2

Go to Security → Unknown sources (or Install unknown apps)

3

Enable "Allow from this source" for your browser or file manager

4

Open the downloaded APK file from your Downloads folder

5

Tap "Install" and wait for installation to complete

6

Launch the app from your home screen

Make sure to re-enable Unknown Sources restrictions after installation for security.

How to install this safely

How to verify the file you downloaded

Before you install anything, confirm the file is the one described here. On a computer, run shasum -a 256 your-download.apk (macOS or Linux) or certutil -hashfile your-download.apk SHA256 (Windows), then compare the output character-for-character with the SHA-256 on this page. If a single character differs, the file is not the build we recorded — delete it.

What the signing certificate proves

Every Android app is signed with a private key that only its developer holds. The fingerprint on this page is a hash of the matching public certificate, and it proves continuity rather than identity: it tells you a build came from whoever signed the earlier ones. Android enforces this at install time — if a package claiming to be im.narayana.another is signed with a different key, the system will refuse to install it over your existing copy. A fingerprint that changes between releases is worth pausing on, because a repackaged app that has been modified by someone else cannot keep the original signature.

How to roll back to an earlier version

If the current release misbehaves, 1.2.1 is the last build before it. Android will not install an older version code over a newer one, so you must uninstall another.im first — which clears its local data unless you have a backup. Reinstall the older APK only if its signing fingerprint matches the build you already trust, and check the API range: an older release may target an Android version your device has moved past.

Why we list sources instead of hosting everything

The official store channel is almost always the right choice: it updates automatically and carries the publisher's own distribution guarantees. A direct APK is useful when a device has no store access, when a rollout has not reached your region, or when you need a specific version — and only when the publisher has authorized that copy. APKBrowse does not list pirated, cracked, or unauthorized rebuilds of another.im, and a listing is removed when the evidence for it stops holding up.
