# Loki Messenger Android
# Session Android
Loki Messenger is a fully end to end encrypted messenger that aims to remove any chance of metadata collection by routing all messages through an onion routing network. Storage of offline messages is handled by Service Nodes, which are a distributed set of nodes run by the community.

## Summary
## Contributing Code
Session integrates directly with [Loki Service Nodes](https://lokidocs.com/ServiceNodes/SNOverview/), which are a set of distributed, decentralized and Sybil resistant nodes. Service Nodes act as servers which store messages offline, and a set of nodes which allow for onion routing functionality obfuscating users IP Addresses. For a full understanding of how Session works, read the [Session Whitepaper](https://getsession.org/whitepaper).
Code should be contributed via pull request to the dev branch, all submitted code will be reviewed.
