About

Fast, simple, secure. Privacy that fits in your pocket. Send high-quality group, text, voice, video, document, and picture messages anywhere in the world without SMS or MMS fees. Signal messages and calls are always end-to-end encrypted and painstakingly engineered to keep your communication safe. We can't read your messages or see your calls, and no one else can either. Keep your chat history tidy with messages that you can set to disappear. Choose different disappearing message intervals for each conversation. Everyone in the thread shares the same setting. Good memories will last even if the words vanish. Signal is made for you. As an Open Source project supported by grants and donations, Signal can put users first. There are no ads, no affiliate marketers, no creepy tracking. Just open technology for a fast, simple, and secure messaging experience. The way it should be.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

  • Free & Open source Provides end to end encryption Group chat and video calling 'Disappearing messages' feature Complete privacy - No IP or data logs No ads or trackers - No data collection Available across platforms and mobiles

Cons

  • It worked great for me. Nothing to share about cons.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Super secured app with end-to-end encryption, that even Wickr can't see my data. Because of the security, illegal folks started to abuse it. Now Amazon has put curb on the abuse and promoting as an enterprise grade product with AWS Support.
  • Wickr is an excellent way to get end to end encryption for communicating safely with business associates without worry of your conversations getting intercepted.
  • It's the best internal (inbound) communication tool for SMBs to collaboratively work and communicate using the unified software. The feature I'm using the most is its file transfer and video call. It helped me to stay connected while working remotely.
  • Wickr makes team communication more professional than other tools we tried. It helped every employee to stay on the same page for team collaboration. The file transfer, screen share and instant messaging works great.
  • Wickr application offers multi-platform support. It allows us to communicate and share files with project teams. The video calling quality is clean and works great on bad connections. Instant messaging and voice calling option.

Cons

  • Few integrations - I guess it will grow, now Amazon owns it.
  • Linking with associates can be cumbersome and retrieving past conversations is purposely impossible.
  • Quality of video conferencing is slightly on the lower side
  • Nothing so far we enjoyed Wickr software features.
  • It worked great for me. Nothing to share about cons.
