About Signal
Signal is a communication app published by Signal Foundation under the package name org.thoughtcrime.securesms. This listing presents the build identified as version 8.29.4, released 2026-10-07, packaged as a file of 84.9 MB. Listing Details The page records the current release identifier and its release date, so you can confirm that the build you are picking up matches the one described here. Two metadata fields are simply unfilled: the content rating is listed as unknown, and the file type is not specified, so nothing further can be said about either. Device and Storage Needs The build requires Android 6.0 or newer. Owners of newer devices should find it straightforwardly installable, while anyone running an older system will need to check their OS before proceeding. The download occupies 84.9 MB, so make sure that much room is free alongside whatever space the app uses after installation. Developer and Category Context Signal Foundation is credited as the developer, and the app sits in the communication category. That placement tells you what to expect in broad terms: a tool built around exchanging messages with other people rather than a media, utility or entertainment product. Identifying the Correct Package The package name org.thoughtcrime.securesms is the permanent identifier for this app. It stays consistent across releases, which makes it useful when you want to verify that an installed copy is genuinely the same application, when tracking updates, or when managing the app manually on a device.
