• Secure mobile comms?

    I'm curious, as there's an abundance of Android secure messaging apps, what are your likes/dislikes regarding the apps out there?

    I've used Signal as my primary SMS app for a while, I belong to a group chat on Signal and I like being able to use one app for secure and insecure messaging.

    Keybase looks good, I'd love some feedback from people with real-world experience with some of these apps.

    These are the two I use as well. The phone part on Signal is nice too as you can have secure voice call too.

    The biggest factor is having your contacts to use one or another, I tend to keep both since I have a distinct contact list on both.

    Cheers!

    I use keybase on a regular basis with a number of people.
