It sounds like this is using SMS/MMS as the transport for the encrypted messages rather than TCP/IP. Since this is a fork or single "with only" that feature, does Signal itself already have it?

It used to but then it dropped using SMS/MMS in favor to its custom protocol. That's when Silence was born.
