I haven't tried SimpleX yet, as they can't share the same profile to multiple devices (it's explained in detail in the FAQ) which makes it a normie usability deal killer. I've heard it has really bad battery life on mobile too, but that's just reading random comments. Right now we're using Delta (and running a relay) and it's just fine.
