Silence works like any other SMS application. There's nothing to sign up for and no new service your friends need to join.\n* Reliable. Silence communicates using encrypted SMS messages. No servers or internet connection required.\n* Private. Silence uses the Signal encryption protocol to provide privacy for every message, every time.\n* Safe. All messages are encrypted locally, so if your phone is lost or stolen, your messages are protected.\n* Open Source. Silence is Free and Open Source, enabling anyone to verify its security by auditing the code.\n\n\n## Project goals\n\nThis is a fork of [TextSecure](https://github.com/WhisperSystems/TextSecure) (now Signal) that aims to keep the SMS encryption that TextSecure removed [for a variety of reasons](https://whispersystems.org/blog/goodbye-encrypted-sms/).\n\nSilence focuses on SMS and MMS. This fork aims to:\n\n* Keep SMS/MMS encryption\n* Drop Google services dependencies (push messages are not available in Silence)\n* Integrate upstream bugfixes and patches from TextSecure\n\n# Contributing\n\nSee [CONTRIBUTING.md](https://git.silence.dev/Silence/Silence-Android/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md) for how to contribute code, translations, or bug reports.\n\nInstructions on how to setup a development environment and build Silence can be found in [BUILDING.md](https://git.silence.dev/Silence/Silence-Android/blob/master/BUILDING.md).\n\n# Donate\n\nWe accept Bitcoin donations.
