    When I use the Signal app on my android, text messages do not display on the screen. If I switch back to the messages app, it works fine. Anybody else figure this out?

    I am pretty sure the release notes in the car about text messaging specifically say that only the stock messaging app on a phone works and also that group messages dont work.

    To be fair, that was instead of whatsapp which also doesn't sync messages to the car

    Having said that, I personally hope we do get support for Signal messages syncing too
