NativeAlphaForAndroid VS Signal-Android

I agree with this 100%. I used to use their app several years ago. I loved the super accuracy. Then they made drastic changes to the app that I hated. Uninstalled it and now use NativeAlpha to create a pseudo app for it.

Before I lay down the steps know that this tutorial is specifically for the "WebApps Sandboxed Browser" on Android. For another Android app you can get "Native Alpha" through the download options here: https://github.com/cylonid/NativeAlphaForAndroid. For this one you have to figure out the steps by yourself because I've not used if myself yet. The advantage of this one is that it has a more recent last update though WebApps Sandboxed Browser works fine in my experience. For iPhone user I'm sorry but you have to find a webapp alternative by yourself(if it exists). If you do please share it here.

A mobile app is not yet available (but apparently in the works), so I personally recommend the use of an application such as Native Alpha to mimic an installed app. KBin seems to work fine on mobile browsers, as well.

I setup Reddit mobile site on Native Alpha as a webapp, much better than official app, but not compared to Infinity

On android, theres a an app called Native Alpha which utilizes Android's built in Web View to isolate specific websites makes them into app-like feeling. Instead of in-browser tabs, it appears as separate individuals on the task manager. One can even set the website setting individually like javascript on/off, https, cookies, etc.

On android I use NativeAlpha for setting up Briefsky as app that opens in its own Android Webview app rather than a browser. It's almost like DarkSky minus the notifications.

I use Native alpha which uses android system webview for web apps like facebook and others

I have never tried uber but the first thing I would look at if you haven't is https://github.com/cylonid/NativeAlphaForAndroid

Haven't used Signal FOSS, but as it happens Molly bas just implemented OSM support, perhaps when it lands you might have better luck with it. Anyway, is there no issue tracker for that fork? I tried looking in their repo and found it disabled

Try using the Signal FOSS version from https://www.twinhelix.com/apps/signal-foss/

Yeah I followed that whole story. Since then some forks have been created that do not care what Signal Foundation thinks about using their servers. Molly and Signal-FOSS for example, both compatible to regular Signal. Those two forks will not keep SMS support, Molly never had it, and Signal-FOSS will most likely drop it because they think it's too much work to keep it while staying compatible and up to date. I hope there is going to be another fork specifically dedicated to keeping SMS support. We'll see.

You can get a completely open source version without the Google stuff here: https://www.twinhelix.com/apps/signal-foss/

Maybe they had outdated info from when the server software was not updated for a long time. Or, it's regarding the dependencies on closed-source Google Mobile Services and Firebase libraries, though those can be removed... and have been in this fork.
