Wireshark,xposed + some creativity and you have your own E2E encrypted solution with OOB keys. For any messenger. It is not done, because there is no demand.

wireshark to reverse the protocol. xposed to rewrite the classes required on android.

you replace Whatsapp.sendMessage(string,Jonny) with WhatsApps.sendMessage(EncryptString(string,Jonny),Jonny)

And EncryptString taps into your keystore to find jonny's key.
