Please add Signal app
With the recent news of potential cyber breach when texting between andriod and iphone we feel that Signal is imperative for security when texting between android and iphone. I tried to request the app via our Gabb account and it immediately came back with a message that Signal "does not meet Gabb's standards and criteria." For us…. If you do not add it we will definitely have to move our child to another service as we have a lot of iphones in our family. Thank you!

Hi @tm225,
Thank you for this post and expressing your concern. We hear you! We sincerely apologize that the Signal app or any other chat app cannot be approved. We take security and child safety very seriously and any app that allows chatting without our involvement could put our users at risk.
We are aware of the warning that has been released and actively looking into solutions at this time. Since the creation of the MMS/SMS texting standard, there has always been the reality that it is not encrypted. At Gabb we do monitoring of all messages sent and received to ensure we block anything unsafe for our users, and we will continue to always have that as a focus. If we determine to stop using MMS/SMS protocol in the future, we will ensure we do it in a way that meets our standards and criteria.\
Thank you!
