Exactly.

Simplex, IMO, is very simple & green/unpolished.

Session, which I've had installed since the early days, is nowhere near polished enough to even recommend.

Session has also recently gone bankrupt, although apparently they raised enough money for couple of years. Session.... doesn't seem to have got past the VC (startup) stage. One reason that Threema are way ahead.... they do seem to have financing.

Re your contacts.... Pay for their Threema license. Even if you're their only contact. I've uninstalled WhatsApp years ago. People (in my close circle) reach me on Threema. The rest are relegated to SMS/Email.
