- tekknik 5y agoTap the user, then the name at the top, then “View Safety Number”. I’m not sure if there’s another warning less buried.
- Andrew_nenakhov 5y agoThat's the point, see my other comment [1]. User has to know about it to activate manual verification, and by default he just has to trust Signal's CA that his contact is, indeed, the one he is talking to.

- int_19h 5y agoHm, you're right. What I was thinking of is the safety number change notification. But if you start with a fresh new contact, it's unverified, but there's no notification to that effect - you have to know what to do to enable it.
- Andrew_nenakhov 5y agoyes, that is exactly what I am talking about.
