My niece has an old iphone with no SIM/phone number. Only wifi internet access.

Looking for an app for both of us to be able to chat

She cant chat with me over signal because no phonee number. She chats with the rest of the family over imessage, but i have an android phone

Is there an app available for both android and iphone to let me chat with her?

Thanks

    I’m aware of the community this is posted in, but my kid talks to her grandparents via the chat features in Google photos. Works over WiFi with specific contacts and no phone number required. It lets her show them pictures she’s drawn.
    Google are involved of course, but there’s no algorithm pushing promoted posts or any of that BS

      Wow, I am so so much against your suggestion, but I have to upvote you, for your bravery.

      To add something constructive: The app Element as a Matrix client works good for me.
