Download Signal Desktop 8.12.0

Privacy-conscious users who want their conversations to stay private, not scanned or stored for ads, tend to download Signal Desktop. Built by the nonprofit Signal Foundation, it’s widely regarded as one of the most secure messaging apps available, using end-to-end encryption on every message, call, and file by default, with no way for anyone but the people in the conversation to read it.

The desktop app links to your phone number just like the mobile version, so once it’s set up you can chat and make calls from your PC while everything stays synced with your phone.

Key Features of Signal Desktop

• End-to-end encryption on every chat, call, and file by default
• Voice and video calling with the same encryption as messages
• Disappearing messages that delete themselves after a set time
