    Une application SMS compatible RCS, permettrait de réduire notre dépendance aux GAFAM et sécuriser d'avantages nos échanges

    THIS is an absolute MUST have! I do NOT trust having Google relaying and possibly viewing my messages no matter if they claim it to be encrypted.

    This would be interesting, however 2 things:

    1) SMS is inherently insecure and there are some alternative SMS apps like Silence that work okay with minimal features and aren't google. I think Signal really has dominated the market of messages and Proton would have a hard time competing.

    2) The most private mobile OS is GrapheneOS and they offer their own default SMS app that works fine. It's still inherently insecure because the SMS protocol is outdated, but it works.

    I would welcome a Proton SMS app because why not, but I recommend just buying a Google Pixel device and installing GrapheneOS.
