You can have a completely different code running on your phone than on GitHub.

Just use the F-Droid version if there is any doubt.

Besides, who is using Secret Chat anyways?

Probably Russians who used Signal before.

The F-droid version is also not reproducible. The binary you install has a different hash than the one you build from the GitHub.

F-Droid builds from source, so any suspicion whether the Google Play version has been tampered is completely irrelevant for the F-Droid version.

It’s reproducible if you compare it with F-droid’s tarball, which has all the source code in it.
