      We will need RCS capable app too one day

      Sure !
      But that should be messaging app, because RCS is successor of SMS and MMS.

        @Moem Maybe a good candidate for crowd funding?

        Maybe? I don´t know about such things. I do know that a well working native Signal app is sorely missed.

        Sorry, I don't know what that is.

            Would a UT Beeper version not be an option. Though I can't find how their mobile apps are made nor licenced...

                  I would guess it might be a modified build of Element or something. Beeper is just a hosted Matrix service, running lots of bridges. You can self-host it too I guess, and use any Matrix client that supports the features you need.

                  It however, is not Signal, and will not provide the same experience as using Signal.

                    so iv been stalking the signal github ....and right now im thinking it wont be possible for alot of reasons ....the only way currently would be to install the signal-cli program and that would might not work because of alot of current updates to the core libs of signal and lack of updates with everything else ...currently .....have you tried to use libertine? (i have never gotten it to work) ....im sorry i wanted to make this happen for you

                      when the newer libraries become available i can make it happen pretty easy i already have the main shell of the program as you see ....so eventually it prob will happen ...depends on the core devs

                        No, I suck at using the UT terminal, so that wouldn't work for me anyway.

                        ....im sorry i wanted to make this happen for you

                        That's okay. It's not a small job. It is fact very very hard or we'd have had it long ago.

                          @Moem actually i can make the script i have use it automatically so you wouldnt have to use the terminal ....but alas i think its just to outdated to bother

                            @developerbayman You know, you could join the efforts of the Axolotl team, who are severely short of developers.

                            Signal is not at all a niche app. It's something that a lot of people use. Having a good native solution for UT would make a lot of difference.
