They really didn't have to redesign a text box. Please stop reinventing the wheel. I don't need another pop up in my life.

I also like Deku SMS, its basically like "Silence" which implemented the Signal Protocol for SMS, but silence is unmaintained.

Both partners need to use the app to use encryption, but SMS are often accessible when cell data is used up or in areas with nearly no coverage.

Is there an alternative RCS App?

[โ€“] Pantherina@feddit.de 2 points 9 months ago

RCS is a very incomplete protocol, so the only good implementations are partly proprietary. Also it relies on centralized infrastructure afaik, and weird bureaucratical agreements with carriers.

No, and it seems pretty unlikely.
