Didn't TextSecure stop encrypting SMS a while back? If you lose data connectivity you're sending in the clear, right?

- JupiterMoon 11y agoYes. This is really annoying it was one of the major selling points - I'd got several people to install it on this basis. They had a reason for the change but I was un-impressed The best thing that one can say is that it is well indicated by the UI whether the message will be secure. Blue for encrypted. Green for clear. I've managed to explain this to some very tech unsavy people.
- jumpwah 11y agoJust in case, do you know about https://github.com/SMSSecure/SMSSecure https://github.com/SMSSecure/SMSSecure?
- AdmiralAsshat 11y agoIs that a setting? I use TextSecure, and when my data cuts out, it simply fails to send the message and tells me. Every message I've ever sent (that I can quickly see) has the padlock icon next to it, which I'm assuming guarantees it was encrypted.
