What do you like best about Signal?

The ease of use Signal provides, its user interface and just the overall flow of experience make it my favorite messaging app; for both business and personal. Signal makes it easy to manage groups - including removing yourself from groups quickly when they're no longer desired - and communicate efficiently in a safe and non-spying fashion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Signal?

I wish that my experience was better in trying to integrate Signal as my all-in-one messaging app. When trying to use it as my default messaging app for everything, it wasn't the best experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Signal solving and how is that benefiting you?

Signal has made Group communication a breeze. And as groups evolve, it makes it easy to modify group messaging participants (both adding and removing) rather than creating a new group. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike its interface and how there just like a one feel wonder and after that hype it was nothing but dust no one is using signal right now all my friends switch to WhatsApp. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use that application for chatting and messaging my contacts and creating group with topmost encryption in security I don't know about the security but at the time of its marketing developer are bringing about that encryption rate and security standards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
