## Signal Description
Signal is a messaging app with privacy at its core. It is free and easy to use, with strong end-to-end encryption that keeps your communication completely private.

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

• Call your friends with crystal-clear encrypted voice and video calls. Group calls supported for up to 50 people.

• Stay connected with group chats up to 1,000 people. Control who can post and manage group members with admin permission settings.

• Share image, text, and video Stories that disappear after 24 hours. Privacy settings keep you in charge of exactly who can see each Story.

• Signal is built for your privacy. We know nothing about you or who you’re talking to. Our open source Signal Protocol means that we can’t read your messages or listen to your calls. Neither can anyone else. No back doors, no data collection, no compromises. 

• Signal is independent and not for profit; a different kind of tech from a different kind of organization. As a 501c3 nonprofit we are supported by your donations, not by advertisers or investors.

## Signal Reviews in Canada

### ***** "Best app for our times"
Excellent UX/UI and encrypted - and not owned by Capitalists. I’ve signed up all my close contacts and chat groups.
-- Vancouver2005, 2025-01-01

### ***** "Thanks for everything boys!"
Can you guys give me the options to donate more often and I’ll use up some of these pre paid cc with you guys.
-- Benjamin Stackz, 2024-12-30

### ***** "Signal my favourite"
It’s one of the best apps and very reliable with information
-- King David 55, 2024-12-30

### **--- "Weird"
Telling anyone in my contacts I’m using signal constantly. Not private at all bye bye
-- Big! Rick, 2024-12-23

### ***** "Does what it’s supposed to"
Does what it’s supposed to do without selling your information. Also doesn’t bombard you with unrelated junk. Simple but still with the useful features that have become common place in modern messaging apps.
-- Fobala, 2024-12-22

### *---- "So unnecessary wants."
This is beyond stupid that you want us to have it on our phone as a condition, I solely will use it on my iPad for a discuss group. I could add phone number as a reference, but literal unnecessarily for you to demand that
-- aplaceformyhead, 2024-12-20

### ***** "GOOD"
It is excellent in conversation
-- harlow geen, 2024-12-20

### ***** "Paul Baker"
I'm am so far delighted in your service and thank you for all you have been doing for me here.
-- Diesel Dummy 75, 2024-12-14
