Calls are safe and secure too because Signal makes sure they are private. End-to-end encryption is promised so nobody else can read your messages to your contact. Privacy is assured because several important features from the two apps have been integrated. Signal will remain and with the recent updates, is now better than ever. So there won’t be RedPhone and TextSecure now. It’s recommended that you just install Signal instead and remove RedPhone from your device. You can still use RedPhone on its own but you won’t received any future update. It’s the same with RedPhone as users will be redirected to Signal.

Signal users will now be allowed to receive and make private calls with other users who use Signal.

If you previously have TextSecure on your phone, the update will bring not just new features but also a new name. Checking out TextSecure on Google Play Store, you will be redirected automatically to Signal. TextSecure, the code from the same titled app, that was used by WhatsApp last year to ensure privacy and security, will soon receive an update and will be known as Signal.
