I've used Signal across all my devices for _years_ and have convinced others to also join in.

[BenRogersWPG]

Does Signal have a widget?
And
Can you use it to text SMS and MMS without inviting others to Signal?

[diepieche]

in my country i think I'm rhe only one using signal.

[darknikto]

Yo Kevin, are you getting new people for every video?
Anyways, Nelson pretty impressive and informative video from you.
Keep it up!!

Kevin, did I hear correctly, to use signal private does the person I'm calling have to have downloaded the signal app? My mobile carrier is virgin mobile, part of my plan has unlimited data, so I think I would not have any charges, please correct me if I'm wrong, thanks. :)

[carolhalpin]

Thankyou Kevin. I thought this was an excellent, straight forward and easy to understand for those not too adept at using different type apps (some of my family). I wish you had included that this was military encrypted as this is what I've been told. That would be important to many. (please correct me if I've been misinformed) CHEERS ♥

Signal Messaging App is something everyone should know how to use it properly.

[hoshikuzuvenus]

Amazing app. Been trying to convince my friends and family to switch over. Messenger and iMessage are such difficult competition.
I will continue to use Signal, though.

For security reason, I am using Signal instead of WhatsApp or Telegram. Works really great. The only thing is that notifications, although enabled do not show. Has anybody noticed this bug and found a solution?

[CARambolagen]

Thanks! Is there a function that will only make me seen to people I specifically select berforehand?

[dcimages]

Love signal, but how do I schedule when to send a message? Thanks

[silversolver]

Can Signal send to other apps, and receive from other apps?
Or do all your contacts also have to be on Signal?

[polly]

Yes, this is helpful. Can your contacts see your number?

[kathymills]

Where did singal come from usa or over seas

[tomasztomczuk]

Hi Nelson, thank you for the clear Signal user manual. I have a question: could you tell me whether Signal can be configured to support, for example, 2 devices under one account? The second question is whether I can use Signal to answer phone calls that come to my phone number, I mean just answering call ?

[BonanovaKnizley]

I really appreciate your efforts! I have a quick question: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (behave today finger ski upon boy assault summer exhaust beauty stereo over). How can I transfer them to Binance?

[priceashley]

Hi i wasn't sure if you can help me out a little. I talk to this one person a lot on Signal. Sometimes it says Delivered right away, but usually it just says Sent for so long like a few hours and then it'll say Delivered. What does that mean? And I know that their phone is on cause they are active on Facebook.

[MrTimstaaa]

Are you able to tell when the other person has read the text message you sent to them ??

[handichick]

If a guy from TikTok asks me to download this app shouldn’t I be suspicious because it requires you to share your number (which I never give out) and all these features are available on your phone EXCEPT the disappearing thing.

[splashthink]

Thanks KS for the Signal tutorial. I am looking to enhance my Signal app with new features. Where would I find developers that know the Open Source platform well that can I contract for changes to the app? Can't seem to find similar on the Signal Messenger site. Thanks!
