I tried using signal but I had a lot of problems with it. I wouldn't get my messages. The people I messaged didn't get my messages. There was an emergency and someone couldn't get ahold of me when they really needed to. After that I deleted signal and moved on. That's just my experience. Yours could be different.
Was this on Android?
Yes and to be fair it was a long time ago.
I managed to move a big portion of my friends and groups over to signal and quite a few Android users initially had notification issues that were fixed by updates. Maybe give it another chance.
No, I moved some of my friends and family over to signal and they all left after our issues. Now that it doesn't even have SMS and no one I know uses it there isn't any incentive for me to go back.
Fair enough.
