Could Be More Private And Secure – Wire • Secure Messenger Review

Having read some online reviews from privacy and security experts in the past 2 to 3 years, Wire seems to have been rated quite favorably. However, I think it’s slipped behind a few other secure messenger apps, particularly apps like Session, Status, MySudo and Threema. Some tips for improvement: 1). If someone calls you in the app and you miss it, the missed call notification is seemingly permanent. You can’t delete it by pressing the notification and selecting the delete option. I want to be able to completely clear my conversation history, including that. Although It can actually be deleted… But you have to delete the app and then re-login. Kind of annoying. 2). Why do I have to have the same pin code unlock that I use to unlock my iPhone itself? Other messenger apps allow you to create a custom pin. What if a friend or relative happens to know your iPhone unlock pin? Then they can access Wire! 3). Why do I have to create a group in order to set time to messages for the participants? Why can’t I set time messages for everyone in a normal one on one conversation?
