+    Signal is a messaging app for simple private communication with friends.
+  </p>
+
+  <p>
+    Signal is also available on Replicant, although the fully free version is 
known as
+    <a href="https://fdroid.eutopia.cz/";>LibreSignal</a>.
+  </p>
+
+  <p>
+    Note: Signal was previously removed from the iOS list because the Android 
version
+    required Google Cloud Messaging, a proprietary component.
+    Now there's an unofficial build of Signal called LibreSignal which does
+    not use GCM on Android, <b>but it can only send text messages.</b>
