What do you like best about Signal?

Signal allows you to easily make group chats or direct message people while keeping different chat groups distinct and clear. It's easy enough to reply to messages and emoji reactions. I also appreciate the feeling that the messages are secure, I'm not an expert in encryption so I have to trust people who build their careers around this stuff, but it is boasted to be one of the best and I like that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Signal?

My only complaint about Signal is the fact that if you are in an active group, it can be tough to catch up if you are behind. I will sometimes come back to over a hundred notifications, and knowing I'll just need to scroll through and try to skim is very difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I use Signal to coordinate with friends, comrades and coworkers alike to talk about things that I might not want to have exposed in something more open like Slack or iMessage. I use it for an added sense of security over other solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Signal?

I just like the fact that Sigal is the best I can do to protect myself and my privacy from snooping from hopefully all actors, big and small. Another thing I like is the range of features and the clean interface. Another cool thing is it is available on almost any platform imaginable. I have it installed on my android, windows laptop and linux workstation and the user experience is pretty much the same across all the platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Signal?

The only downside is the lack of uptake. I have only a handful of friends and family who have installed it and not all of them are regularly using it. I wish more people used it and it can be my primary mode of communication. Of course it is not a ding on the app itself and hopefully people will ultimately educate themselves more and realize this tool is here for checks all the boxes. This is my only con for this otherwise awesome app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It is peace of mind that I get with Signal. I would also say that it is a more comforting experience knowing that I am not being tracked. End to end encrption on ALL the communication means I can speak my mind without fear of big brother. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
