Finally, we can have usernames in Signal instead of giving our phone number to everybody.

This is a big complaint for me. I know that there is the official standalone APK, but if I am running a de-Googled phone, I want to be able to use Signal and have it update on a regular basis.

The app does remind you of updates.
