Why don't you use it for SMS? At most 20% of my contacts use Signal, but for the rest of my non-Signal contacts I still use it to communicate using normal SMS/MMS without any hiccups, the only thing being the lack of encryption. I also personally prefer it to the IMO horrible default SMS apps provided by multiple vendors (including stock Android, at least up to V7).
- balladeer 8y agoPeople might be used to other SMS apps (better feature, familiarity etc) and Signal can't be used as an SMS app on iOS.
- eadmund 8y ago> Signal can't be used as an SMS app on iOS. Sounds like a broken smartphone platform to me. I'm not being glib: I really do believe that I should be easily able to replace any app on my phone. Android, while imperfect, is closer to that goal than is iOS, and so I use it, and recommend it to others.
