@ian said in Emergency broadcast:

Has this feature been coded in UT?

Emergency Broadcast messages support has not been integrated into UT as of yet. Indeed, I know of no other non-Android Linux OSes or shells that have them yet either.

However, ofono does have some API for them, so it should be possible to do the work for them in UT. It just needs someone to spend the time to do all the work. I don't know if ModemManager has any support for them at all though, so implementing them for other shells may be even more work.

@BigB said in [Request] Independent SMS and MMS encryption:

However I'm still interested in sms and mms encryption even it has to be only between Ubuntu Touch devices.

That has to be developed.
And my guess is it will take time until it becomes a priority, but if someone with technical skills and will wants to work on it that will be welcome.

Axolotl is a client for Signal, I don't really know if it can send encrypted messages without internet connection (but I doubt it).
Maybe if @nanu-c comes around here he might answer that and maybe add this to his todo list.
You can check Gitlab for existing feature request or make one: https://github.com/nanu-c/axolotl/issues

I confirm and bug report done :

@advocatux Thank you for bringing it to my attention. I do believe the issue may be related, and I will likely add my part to the github comment chain.
