To send a message on Signal, click on the pencil icon at the bottom-right corner of the screen. Once that is done, you will then be taken to the home page of the Signal app. It is also mandatory to create a 4-digit pin to secure your account. Adding a profile picture is optional as well. Here, you need to provide a first name but the last name is optional. Once verification is complete, you will then need to set up your user profile. A verification message will be sent to the number before sign-up can be completed. You also do need an active phone number (based on your country of residence) to sign up. Next, you would need to grant some permissions: Audio, Contact, Camera, etc. Ensure you go through it carefully and hit CONTINUE afterward.

Once you download and open the app, you will be presented with the app’s terms & privacy policy.
