Need something achievable for an extremely tech illiterate person on iOS. I got told about this after they are already gone and have no access to the device, but am asked to solve the problem.

EDIT: (SOLVED) Signal was super easy, works awesome, and was easy even for my mom to figure out on her own. Thanks

Signal works wonders without google play

Can even get the apk from their website that has a self updater so no aurora store/playstore needed also available on ios. Simplex is another option but not as user friendly for older folk

Why not just use an F-Droid repo?

Probably slower than getting it directly from the source. And the app checks for updates itself, so that's not an issue.
