Signal 7.47.0 – FREE Encrypted Messenger

Signal is an encrypted messaging service for instant messaging, voice, and video calls. The instant messaging function includes sending text, voice notes, images, videos, and other files. Communication may be one-to-one between users, or for group messaging.

The application uses a centralized computing architecture, and is cross-platform software. It is developed by the non-profit Signal Foundation and its subsidiary, Signal Messenger LLC. This software is free and open-source.

The official Android app generally uses the proprietary Google Play Services, although it can work without them. Signal is also distributed for iOS and desktop programs for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Registration for desktop use requires an iOS or Android device.

Signal uses mobile telephone numbers as identifier for users. It secures all communications with end-to-end encryption. The client software includes mechanisms by which users can independently verify the identity of their contacts and the integrity of the data channel.

The number does not have to be the same as on the device’s SIM card. It can also be a VoIP number or a landline as long as the user can receive the verification code and have a separate device to set up the software. You can register a number only on one mobile device at a time. Account registration requires an iOS or Android device.

Features:

Share Without Insecurity

State-of-the-art end-to-end encryption (powered by the open source Signal Protocol) keeps your conversations secure. Nobody can’t read your messages or listen to your calls, even developers of this app. Privacy isn’t an optional mode – it’s just the way that app works.

Say Anything

Share text, voice messages, photos, videos, GIFs and files for free. Signal uses your phone’s data connection so you can avoid SMS and MMS fees.

Speak Freely

Make crystal-clear voice and video calls to people who live across town, or across the ocean, with no long-distance charges.

Make Privacy Stick

Add a new layer of expression to your conversations with encrypted stickers. You can also create and share your own sticker packs.

Get Together with Groups

Group chats make it easy to stay connected to your family, friends, and coworkers.

No ads. No trackers.

There are no ads, no affiliate marketers, and no creepy tracking in application. So focus on sharing the moments that matter with the people who matter to you.

What’s New in version 7.47.0:

• Added a convenient shortcut to quickly lower your hand after you start speaking during a Signal group call. It’s hands down our favorite feature in this release.

What’s New in version 7.46.0:

• The new “Data usage” feature in Signal settings makes it easy to choose whether or not to automatically download photos, videos, audio files, or other documents. If Signal stops automatically downloading the latest tracks from your friend’s boyfriend’s band in the group chat, you can save your taste in music along with some free space on your hard drive.
• Now when you attempt to start a chat with someone’s Signal username, it will work even if you accidentally type the “@” symbol first. Some h@bits @re h@rd to bre@k.

What’s New in version 7.45.0:

• Stickers should feel sticky, not stuck, so now you can click on a sticker on a newly linked Signal Desktop and that sticker download will automatically get prioritized even when other attachments are downloading too.

What’s New in version 7.44.0:

• Fixed a minor animation bug during group calls. We apologize in advance if the most exciting part of your day was switching to grid view during a meeting and trying to catch the moment where the video squares from people who joined late sometimes partially obscured the slide deck your boss was presenting.

What’s New in version 7.43.0:

• Valentine’s Day is all about celebrating a perfect match, so we updated the text label on a single button in the Desktop app to create a cute couple with the same button on your phone. This sounds like a very small change, and it is, but sometimes it’s the little things that show how much you care.

What’s New in version 7.42.0:

• Now when you link your primary Signal device to a new Desktop, you can bring your chat history and your last 45 days of media with you. The transfer process is end-to-end encrypted, and completely optional. When it comes to making the choice about whether or not to leave the past behind, you’re left to your own devices.
