It actually might not be, googling
"org.thoughtcrimes.securesms"doesn't get results.thoughtcrimesvs.thoughtcrimeMy question though is how this popped up in droidify, would someone need to manually add some special repo?
I missed that, thanks for pointing it out. The one without S is the correct one.
But that makes me wonder, how did OP not end up with two signal apps then?
by that popup blocking him from installing the wrong one?
Oh, that's from the installer and not one of those warnings you get after opening apps. Makes sense.
Technically it's from "Google Play Protect" that got triggered during the install but yeah.
Yes, where is that from? Its not in the repos I use.
