So a new account called Signalvwhatsapp submits a UX "case study" regarding the usability of Signal vs. Whatsapp (it says so in the post title: "Is Signal as easy to use as WhatsApp? (a ~40 hour analysis)"). The study instead is 95% about the onboarding process and maybe 5% about the app itself. Nothing about the sharing workflow of images, videos, audio or group messages. Stuff most users are interested in the most probably.

Nothing fishy at all about this.

Furthermore: no app can access the iOS keyboard or modify it for obvious security reasons. Having a numpad up is as good as it gets. So the critique about the recommendation of pasting the numeric code from messages is hardly valid.
