I don't trust anything that markets itself as the "most trusted _____ in
the world." And I also don't see anything on its page about it being open
source, which makes it even less likely to be trustworthy.

Check out Chat Secure or Text Secure, good open source Android messaging
programs. (But Android devices shouldn't be expected to be secure, anyway.)
