What Makes the Signal Private Messenger App So Great?

If you are looking for alternative applications to WhatsApp, we recommend Signal, as it is one of the apps that has gained ground in this regard and is currently very popular.

The truth is that at first glance this application is just a normal messaging service, where you can send messages, photos, GIFs and make video calls, but Signal is much more than that. Signal Private Messenger implements end-to-end encryption security technology, later also implemented by WhatsApp in its services.




But it's not just about Signal, the end-to-end encryption they implement in the app doesn't just secure sent messages from hacker attacks;  but also from the same application. That is, only the sender of the message and the recipient of the same will be able to read it, not even the app will have access to messages and user information.
