Secure Messaging
Signal is a free messenger client, like Facebook Messenger or WhatsApp. Just like WhatsApp and Telegram your account is tied to your mobile number. Users who are used to WhatsApp should find Signal familiar enough to use without any hand-holding.
Signal’s priority is user privacy. It is developed by the registered non-profit Signal Technology Foundation. End-to-end encryption means that your data is protected, even from the makers of Signal. Read about what happened when Signal received a subpoena from the US government
