About Silence
Silence (formerly SMSSecure) is a full replacement for the default text messaging application: all messages are encrypted locally and messages to other Silence users are encrypted over the air. Silence works like any other SMS application. There’s nothing to sign up for and no new service your friends need to join. Silence communicates using encrypted SMS messages. No servers or internet connection required. Silence provides end-to-end encryption for your messages using the painstakingly engineered Signal encryption protocol. All messages are encrypted locally, so if your phone is lost or stolen, your messages are protected.
