Signal and FaceTime Audio are both good, with Signal a bit better.

Skype was redesigned by Microsoft to connect to their Azure cloud, where it apparently gets decrypted before being re-encrypted back out to the destination.

Appreciate any suggestions.

Do you really think our phones can be made secure from gathering date by Apple or Android to turn over to the government?

I laugh. I laugh some more.

You’d basically have to create your own phone with its own software.

Just began testing it on Android, but a security friend and I have been testing the PC clients in both Linux and windows cross platform and it seems to be working very well back and forth from Germany. The TOX protocol and encryption has been verified as the most secure available as true P2P, end to end encrypted, device to device connection without a central server. Voice, video, file sharing, text messaging, Group option...

We are liking it so far.

I use Signal, as do some of my coworkers and family. It’s available for mobile and for desktop.

I have grown partial to LifeSize video conferencing.

Compared to Z**m and other video calling systems, LifeSize at least complies with secure standards.

been using a free app from the app store for both texting and talk- works pretty well- but probably isn’t secure at all- who knows- Think it’s called Text Now or something like that- send as many texts as you want- calls are reLLy clear- only thing is you can’t use a VPN while using it- unfortunately-
