It would appear that encryption is optional in this tool. That's a 50 caliber footgun (on par with Telegram) if I ever saw one; I won't be using this software.

  OMEMO is optional because not all of the 37283749 XMPP clients support it. But it is enabled by default if all involved parties are using Quicksy, Conversations or another reasonably new client.

    I won't touch a messenger that ever lets me send a mix of encrypted or unencrypted communications. That's an accident waiting to happen.

      For what it's worth, Signal on Android allows sending of unencrypted messages over SMS.

        But that's a different protocol than the signal protocol. And Signal encrypts your SMS at rest should you choose to use their app to do so.
