No dataAll messaging functions work. In calls, there's no audio. Video works, though.
Install version without Google services from https://signal.org/android/apk/
Works well for text messages, pictures and videos, in 1-on-1 conversations as well as group chats. Calls aren't implemented yet.
Meaaaging works, calls no audio
Works perfectly as instant text messaging applications. Videos in video calls are working in both way (tested only between Sailfish OS and Android, not iOS) but sound only on the Android side. Voice calls, sound only on the Android side. Doesn’t matter who’s calling.
The application performs really well, both in function and performance. Voice calls, video calls, and photo, video, file, text and GIF messaging do work as intended. When calling from AAS to both Android and iOS users, they hear me well, and I hear them well, and we both can see video during video calls. Only thing that's not working is screen sharing during a call.
Actually, after update, the latest version (8.24.2) works perfectly. Tested both: voice and video calls.
