TextSecure (essentially the old name for Signal) is 3 years older (2010 vs. 2013), isn't it?

The timeline seems to suggest e2e had always been at the heart of the protocol, but I'm not sure if TextSecure and RedPhone were actually apps that people could install after Whisper Systems was acquired by Twitter. Regardless, instant messaging hadn't seem to be introduced until 2014. Tough call.

TextSecure was available from Google Play for years, I've used it since release. The transformation to Signal was pretty seamless.
