Components
Signal messenger is a messaging app that enables users send messages without any text charges. Like some other messaging app, it allows others users identify when another user is connected/ online and when offline.
But also, sometimea users might want to be invisible or is busy but has to get some information from messages sent to a person, at that point such users has to appear online even though that's not want he reall wants.
Proposal

should be added to enable users go about their messages their own way.
