Comments and Reviews
Of all the alternative apps I've tested, it's my favorite. It works without errors and the desktop version is also very good. There are many excellent features that the original app doesn't have, the function to replace the original forwarding was the one I liked the most and I haven't found this function in any other app. It's multiplatform and, if it had a Linux version, it would be perfect. Another plus point is that it's also available in the F-Droid store. I've been using it for over a year now and you can install it without fear because it's safe and reliable.
Even better than Plus Messenger and Mercurygram.
