Try Molly instead which is a hardened fork of Signal. Molly uses the same servers and is transparent to the operator.
You can install Molly through F-Droid or Accrescent.
What makes Molly better than the official signal app? It would seem the official would be the best updated and most secure.
Edit: Damn. Molly has some decent options over the base signal app. Neat for sure.
You are right that Molly would lag behind in security updates by one version every time, but Molly is currently the only way to get Signal on tablets/other Droids in one account, effectively, as far as I know.
