Whats The Most Secure End-To-End VOIP App For iOS & Android Users To Speak With Each Other On?

Is anyone on FR using a smart phone VOIP app that touts their end-to-end security? Are you happy with it?

I understand we are taking a lot of companies word on what they say they do, and I know that at least one (Wire) says all their software is open source and is reviewed (on the Apple App store the top rated commment for Wire implies its not that secure.

And Apple's FaceTime is supposedly very secure and it is built in to the Iphone and Mac, but (a) I don't trust anything coming out of Tim Cook's mouth and (b) I need a set up where an iPhone user can speak securely with an Android user.

Multiple simultaneous users or a secure text chat would be a bonus, but the most important is for as secure as possible 1-1 voice communications, so "intimate, romantic voice calls remain private."

Thanks in advance any advice.

yup same here- i use it over public wifi too- which they say i shouldn’t- but what are they gonna get? my stupid
‘lol’ texts? Now, if i were using the phone for banking, or something sensitive- that would be another story-

The phone i have is a discarded one, no cell service- free public wifi, and free texting and calling on the wifi- (We do have home wifi too which is where i do most of the texting calling- so that is a bit more secure) but when on the road- i use public wifi- just wish that textme would allow a VPN-
