Description
Signal is a messaging app with privacy at its core. It is free and easy to use, with strong end-to-end encryption that keeps your communication completely private.
• Send texts, voice messages, photos, videos, GIFs, and files for free. Signal uses your phone’s data connection, so you avoid SMS and MMS fees.
• Call your friends with crystal-clear encrypted voice and video calls. Group calls supported for up to 40 people.
• Stay connected with group chats up to 1,000 people. Control who can post and manage group members with admin permission settings.
• Share image, text, and video Stories that disappear after 24 hours. Privacy settings keep you in charge of exactly who can see each Story.
• Signal is built for your privacy. We know nothing about you or who you’re talking to. Our open source Signal Protocol means that we can’t read your messages or listen to your calls. Neither can anyone else. No back doors, no data collection, no compromises.
• Signal is independent and not for profit; a different kind of tech from a different kind of organization. As a 501c3 nonprofit we are supported by your donations, not by advertisers or investors.

What’s New
Version 7.25
• We updated the control panel that appears during voice and video calls. If you want to save your best jokes and most interesting points until your favorite person is listening, now you can swipe up on the control panel to view the list of people who are in the call, see who has raised their hand, and perform other quick actions too.
Ratings and Reviews
The best instant Messenger!! EVER!!!!
I’m just blown away by how awesome this app is! It comes with a few sticks and built in integration with Giphy!! I love Giphy! Can share GIF right from the app and not go to my web browser on a separate app to copy and paste a URL into the app! :) Plus the app is heavily secure for instant communication! Even recommended by Edward Josef Snowden! This level of heavy emphasis on security is welcomed largely. My only complaint is that the app could come with more stickers preloaded in the app or have a sticker store built right in to the app. All in all, I feel much secure using this app! Thank you all, the Developers, Donators & Everyone Who has contributed to this app! My best wishes to all of you! I’m optimistic for future, I want to see what else signal development team brings to the table. 😃😃😃
Great Privacy Preserving App
This is a very secure, privacy first app. Even the ubiquitous WhatsApp can track so much of your metadata without having to read the content (who, when, where, how long you chatted). Not Signal - it has real privacy. Plus it’s owned by a non-profit so they don’t have the temptation to harvest your data. This means it has a few quirks users need to be aware of, though, like ‘forward privacy’ so even if someone hacked your account they couldn’t read your old messages. This means it’s difficult to transfer data to a new phone. If you can live with that, it’s a great app that’s constantly improving.
Improvement needed
It would be nice to know when the other person or people are online, also it also would be nice to be able to turn off the sound of when sending messages as it's not necessary to have that on if not wanted especially if wanting to chat in middle of night and don't want that sound on which could wake up anyone nearby especially if have a baby sleeping in same room if you know what I'm meaning if the partner is out or working and you want to message them without waking the your baby, please put a internal sound toggle to turn messaging sound off if not wanting it on please. And also would be nice to be able to edit sent messages too no matter how long they have been sent for and this would improve the app quite a bit and would improve the stars that I've put too UpTo possibly 4or 5 stars
