23 little-known Signal features and pro tricks

?

Signal is one of the most popular end-to-end encrypted messaging apps but it can do much more than just encrypt your calls and messages. Here are some of the messaging app's best hidden features and pro tricks that can help you become a Signal master.

1. Encrypted notes

Signal has a built-in "Note to Self" contact that can be used to jot down quick text notes, save photos and files, or store voice and video notes. If you have Signal on all your devices, this notes feature is also great for quickly transferring files between your devices.

To save notes, search for the Note to Self contact and send your notes as a message. Whenever you want to review your notes, simply browse through the messages you've sent to the Note to Self contact.
