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!

    I have tried fluffy chat, and while it’s pretty good compared to the competition within the matrix ecosystem, it’s certainly not up to par with the likes of Whatsapp, Viber, Facebook messenger, iMessage, etc. Signal can compete with them on the usubiliby front.

    No one messenger is the best tool for every job. Signal undeniably excells at making a high level of privacy very accessible, which is precisely what OP is looking for, hence it is the right tool for this particular job.
