Tor companion plugin for Mercurygram.
It runs the Tor daemon in a background service and exposes a local SOCKS5
proxy, which Mercurygram uses to carry MTProto traffic over the Tor network
when the "Use Tor" option is enabled.
The plugin ships separately so that the Tor binaries and the geoip databases,
about 25 MB per architecture, are only downloaded by the people who actually
use them. It has no user interface and does nothing on its own: without
Mercurygram installed, nothing ever asks it to start.
Versions
Although APK downloads are available below to give you the choice, you should be aware that by installing that way you will not receive update notifications and it's a less secure way to download. We recommend that you install the F-Droid client and use that.
