Originally I’ve download the signal app through playstore, but often it also get updates from Droid-ify(Fdroid client). Today its weird and I got this . Explain to me this.

On the Droid-ify the signal app is provided by: org.thoughtcrimes.securesms

    The package name is correct, but signal was never on F-droid.

    Do you have a third party repo that might be compromised?

    Edit: Package name isn’t correct, so that’s almost definitely a compromised version. Get rid of it ASAP.

      It actually might not be, googling "org.thoughtcrimes.securesms" doesn’t get results.

      thoughtcrimes vs. thoughtcrime

      My question though is how this popped up in droidify, would someone need to manually add some special repo?

        I missed that, thanks for pointing it out. The one without S is the correct one.

        But that makes me wonder, how did OP not end up with two signal apps then?
