Pick Your Poison

🐙

Elige Conversations (Jabber / XMPP) si...

Conversations (Jabber/XMPP) is a solid choice for security-conscious users who value open-source software and the flexibility of the XMPP protocol. If you're comfortable managing your own XMPP server or finding a reliable provider, and don't require OTR, this app is well worth the price. However, be prepared to troubleshoot occasional technical glitches and verify that push notifications function correctly on your device.

Elige Rakuten Viber Messenger si...

Viber remains a solid option if you need a feature-rich messaging app, particularly for international calls and sticker-filled chats. However, be prepared for potential ads and occasional technical hiccups, especially if you rely heavily on the desktop application.
