Threema does not rely on SMS for login, the identities are not phone number based and trust can be ensured by manually scanning the public key QR of the peer, leading to a clear visual trust level indicator.
Applications should not rely on SMS for authentication or login, or on the phone number for identity.

- kentt 10y agoYes, thank you. I strongly agree. I have a couple SIM cards since I live on the US/Canada border. WhatsApp and Telegram won't let me send messages when I switch SIMs and there is no other way to verify my identity.
