Signal messenger beta now allows to mute notifications forever on Android

The development speed of Signal app seems to be back to normal after the recent hype around WhatsApp privacy policy. The latest beta update to version 5.6.1 came along with a new mute option that allows setting this toggle to "always". This is one of essential features for Signal to reach feature parity with WhatsApp.

How to test:

  • Open any of your chats on Signal.
  • Tap on the chat profile icon on top to see chat settings.
  • Tap on the mute notifications button.
  • Select "Always".

What's New?

★ Give notifications in any conversation a rest (while you rest) with the new 8-hour mute setting. Or choose "Always" instead of one year, and say goodbye to the annual tradition of renewing a moment of silence.
