I use an iPhone and my fiancé uses Android. He is not very tech savvy. He does not like to text for privacy reasons. I was going to recommend we get Signal but see others in Lemmy talking about Matrix. Is that better? If so, what app is best that works on both our phones? Thanks Lemmy friends!
Just stick to signal, matrix can be used the same way but it’s a lot more complicated and requires involvement in keeping your backup key safe, otherwise you’ll lose every encrypted message! Signal is similar to whatsapp. (which is obviously…a popular app…which should already explain the simplicity of setting it up.)
