Millions of people use Signal every day for free and instantaneous communication anywhere in the world. Send and receive high-fidelity messages, participate in HD voice/video calls, and explore a growing set of new features that help you stay connected. Signal’s advanced privacy-preserving technology is always enabled, so you can focus on sharing the moments that matter with the people who matter to you.
• Say anything – State-of-the-art end-to-end encryption (powered by the open source Signal Protocol™) keeps your conversations secure. Privacy isn’t an optional mode — it’s just the way that Signal works. Every message, every call, every time.
• Go fast – Messages are delivered quickly and reliably, even on slow networks. Signal is optimized to operate in the most constrained environment possible.
• Feel free – Signal is a completely independent 501c3 nonprofit. Development is supported by users like you. No advertisements. No trackers. No kidding.
• Be yourself – You can use your existing phone number and address book to securely communicate with your friends.
• Speak up – Whether they live across town or across the ocean, Signal’s enhanced audio and video quality will make your friends and family feel closer.
• Whisper in the shadows – Switch to the dark theme if you refuse to see the light.
• Sound familiar – Choose custom alerts for each contact, or disable noises completely. Simon & Garfunkel wrote a hit song about it in 1964, and you can experience the sound of silence whenever you want by choosing “None” as your notification ringtone.
• Picture this – Use the built-in image editing features to sketch, crop, and flip your outgoing photos. There’s even a text tool so that you can add more words to the 1,000 that your picture is already worth.

| 6.17 | Mar 22, 2023 | stable | |

• Share more things from more places. The share extension now has better support for the text format that various popular news apps share by default. We also squashed a bug that sometimes caused your first attempt to fail when sharing something.
• Speaking of sharing, another bug was making it difficult to share text content from other apps like Apple Notes as Signal Stories. Text has arguably been an important component of some of the best stories throughout history, so we're excited to close the chapter on this particular problem.
• New animation improvements in the media and avatar viewers let you smoothly step back and see the big picture.
• We fixed a couple of layout issues that could cause buttons to show up in the wrong place on new iPhones, like invisible castaways marooned underneath Apple's Dynamic Island.
• This update also includes support for Cantonese and Uyghur.

|
• The new and improved All Media view makes it easier to spot old GIFs in your favorite chats, keep track of where you are in the timeline while scrolling, and see the length of individual videos.
• We fixed a few bugs, including one that sometimes made an endless progress spinner appear while trying to leave a group. If you have been enthusiastically trying to escape from an "Escape Room Enthusiasts" group, the puzzle has been solved and the door is now open.
|
|||

• If you routinely miss calls when your phone is in another room, you'll be happy to hear that unread missed call events in individual (non-group) chats will be automatically marked as read when you answer or decline on the 2nd, or 3rd, or 27th attempt. Sometimes persistence pays off for everyone involved, especially if one of your friends is accidentally going for the pocket-dial world record.
• We fixed a few bugs, including one that occasionally made part of the interface look transparent while browsing through your contact list. Now you can only metaphorically see right through some of the people you know.
|
|||

Thank you for updating to the latest version of Wickr Me. In this release, we’re pleased to introduce message editing! Whether you make a lot of typos, changed your mind on your message’s content, or sent the wrong link... message edit allows you to edit in place, meaning your message won’t lose its spot in the message history. Note, some users that are on older versions of Wickr may not receive edits.
Additionally, we’ve also focused on making some improvements to the calling experience.
* We’ve added a participants list to the video conference UI to make it easier to see who is on your call. No more scrolling through avatars!
* If you’re the host of a call, you can now mute all other users from the participants list.
* We’ve made some design changes to the overall calling experience to accommodate these new features (and make room for more upcoming conferencing tools in the future!)
* In response to user feedback that it’s difficult to use a video conference tool when your phone is up to your ear, we’ve defaulted audio to default to speakerphone when no external headphone device is in use.
* Fixed an issue where the search UI could break when navigating from the “Show All” modal

• Thanks to the new animations that appear when you select, reply, send, or receive a message, even an uninspiring conversation can still be quite moving.
• Battery life is precious, so we’ve made several changes to the way notifications are handled in the app which reduces battery usage significantly on iOS 14.5+.
• Receive an unwanted message? You can now report it as spam when you tap block.

• Become a conversation artist. Use the new color selector to turn every chat into a masterpiece, or let “auto” mode pick something just as palette-able.
• Once you've found the perfect disappearing message timer, why not try it out everywhere? You can now set a default timer that applies to any chats you start.

• Transcribing that welcome message every time someone joins the group starting to kill the vibe? We prescribe a new way to describe which is visible to members automatically. Feel free to ascribe those continued good vibes to us!
• Signal is a nonprofit powered by people like you. We’ve now made it easy to donate to Signal using Apple Pay. Just go to Settings > Donate to get started. Your donation helps Signal stay independent and ad-free. Thank you for standing with us!
• Curious whether your latest monologue got the attention it deserved? You can now see when someone has listened to your voice messages. If you see the dot on your voice message, it’s still waiting for a listen.
• You can also now see when a view-once photo or video has been viewed right from message details.

• Voice notes have been given a fresh coat of paint. Consecutive messages now play together and if something interrupts your recording (like admiring our new looks), your message will be perfectly preserved in our new draft state (phew!).
• Letting go can be hard, but our new custom disappearing timer can help you find a little more time to process those fleeting messages before they're gone forever.

• We still have more improvements in the works, but the chat scrolling enhancements in this release will make you feel like such a "Smooth Operator" that you're basically performing an unofficial cover of Sade's hit song from 1984.
• Numerous bugs in chat search have vanished without a trace, and search results are better organized to make things easier to find. If you are looking for a group named "Hi" it will no longer get buried by every single message where someone said hello.
• We fixed a bug that made it impossible to find results for a single Chinese character in the new chat screen.
• Animated GIF search results now show up in a jiffy (even though that isn't how GIF is pronounced).

• Fall in love with several improvements to the media upload and download experience. It may seem like everything is happening really fast, especially when you send multiple photos and videos all at once, but love is like that sometimes. It's OK to start feeling more attached to sending more attachments.
• Love and loss are inextricably connected, so we also broke up with a bug that made it impossible to share long videos from other apps (like the iOS Photos app).
• As part of our ongoing efforts to redesign and enhance the app, we updated the chat settings screen to make common actions easier to find and to help you find common ground in one-on-one chats by displaying the groups that both of you have in common.

• Give notifications in any conversation a rest (while you rest) with the new 8-hour mute setting. Or choose "Always" instead of one year, and say goodbye to the annual tradition of renewing a moment of silence.
• Swipe left on any message to quickly see message details. Whether you're wondering when the message was sent (exit stage left) or when they saw the message and didn't reply (left you on read), nothing is left to the imagination with the new left-swipe shortcut.

| 5.8.2 | Apr 6, 2021 | stable | |
|
• We fixed a crash that prevented some users from sharing more than a few pictures at once. Now you can once again send photo albums instead of photo EPs.
• The bug where large stickers wouldn't automatically download is no longer creating sticky situations. Stickers were meant to get stuck, but not like this.

• If you've been searching for an option that you can't seem to find, just retrace your steps with the new and improved Signal Settings menu. It's probably wherever you set it last.
• Bandwidth shouldn't be the limiting factor that determines whether or not you can talk to someone (unless it's emotional bandwidth) so this release includes a few tweaks to help low-bandwidth calls perform even better.

| 5.6 | Mar 1, 2021 | stable | |
|
• Between the improvements in this update and the improvements in the last update, Signal can now process 16,500% more messages per second. Now you can immediately see the mountain of unread messages that arrived while your cellular reception was taking a hike.
• Incoming video calls weren't always ringing for some users on iOS 14, but we aren't hung up on this bug anymore.
• People with tons and tons of contacts may still struggle to handle the weight of their own popularity, but Signal no longer makes them wait as long or struggles to handle their super-large address books.

| 5.5.0 | Feb 22, 2021 | stable | |
|
• This update improves the onboarding experience for new Signal users. If you’ve already been using Signal for a long time, feel free to invite a new friend and then ask them to tell you all about it.
• We made message processing significantly faster, so you can fly through your message backlog after your flight lands, or quickly power through what you missed while you were looking for a power outlet.
• We filled in the blanks with bug fixes for stickers and delivery receipt checkmarks that weren’t always appearing for some users.
|
|||
| 5.4 | Feb 8, 2021 | stable | |
|
• This update introduces a few major accessibility enhancements, including VoiceOver descriptions of conversation messages.
• Even if your thumbs are slow, sending messages will still be faster whenever you tap the send button in large groups.
• The new design for the attachment upload and download progress indicators might look even better than the attachment that they sent you.
• Several low-memory crashes have become distant-memory crashes, so you can forget about them.

| 5.3.2 | Feb 3, 2021 | stable | |

• Chat wallpapers have arrived! Choose unique wallpapers for individual chats (you may as well type on a heart-filled wallpaper if they're your type on paper) or just set one default background for everyone if your patience is wallpaper thin.
• This update includes support for animated stickers along with the first official animated Signal sticker pack, "Day by Day" by Miguel Ángel Camprubí. You can create your own APNG animated sticker packs in Signal Desktop, and now you can share sticker packs with multiple chats too!
• Optionally tell your friends what's going on or share something new "About" yourself in your Signal Profile.
• If they're a big deal to you, tap on their profile photo to see them in a full-screen view.
• New setting to lower data usage for calls.
• Automatically pause attachment downloads while a call is in progress. Deciding to wait doesn't need to feel like such a weight because you can pause and resume attachment downloads whenever you want.
• We improved image compression and quality so larger-than-life memories are always just the right size.
• Expanded chat list previews display the sender's name in group chats so it's easier to decide which threads to look at first.
• Signal chats can now be displayed as suggestions when sharing from other apps. This setting can be enabled or disabled at any time.
• We fixed a few bugs that were reported to us by the beta community and people who are really fast at downloading new things.

| 5.2.1 | Jan 18, 2021 | stable | |

This update is filled with dozens of changes! Here are a few highlights:
• Adjust your media download preferences to control when attachments get downloaded (Settings > Data Usage).
• We added support for longer group names in languages like Hindi where the previous limit was too small.
• We raised the group call limit from 5 to 8, so now you can call it even.
• Share something funny from other apps with multiple Signal chats at the same time.
• Use the optional shortcut to enable a shareable group link when you create a new group.
• Additional file attachments can now be opened right from within the app.
• Now you can easily see the latest Signal profile photo that your contacts have chosen, but we added an option to always show system profile photos if you prefer the old behavior (or start to miss the blurry photo of them from 9 years ago that has travelled across multiple SIM cards).
• Video quality and size improvements.
• We fixed a bug that prevented iPad users from tapping Send when sharing content from other apps, and another bug that prevented WebP images from sending properly on iOS 14.
