It was also claimed to be the top downloaded application in Germany, France, Austria, Finland, Hong Kong, and Switzerland too.
The reason can be attributed to the new WHATSAPP privacy policy that requests its users to accept changes in the provisions of service and privacy policies on February 8 or their account will be deleted. It has been part of the coming global roll-out for more than 2 billion users. Since then more and more users migrate to other messaging applications.
While the popularity of the signal application surged further after 'the richest man on the planet' newly crowned Elon Musk supports this application.
More than 100,000 users install signals while the telegram took almost 2.2 million downloads, according to the data analytics firm tower sensor.
What makes the signal application better than WhatsApp?
* Messaging application signals are said to be the safest application in the world and there is no fear of user data shared.
* Signal applications do not request personal data users like WhatsApp that must be done on behalf of privacy.
* This also does not send a user backup without guarantees to the cloud and save encrypted databases safely on your mobile.
* The signal application has a feature 'data that is linked to you' which means no one can take the screens' catch from the chat message.
* Other popular features of the signal application are that your old message automatically disappears.
The signal application has been developed by a non-profit company, The Signal Foundation and Signal Messenger LLC. This is a messaging application and works on iPhone, iPad, Android, Windows, Mac and Linux.
