Oh ok. My phone is still annoying me with it, it still wants to use TextSecure for SMS for some reason, which is really confusing.

Encrypted SMS is, but the Android app will (apparently) continue to support unencrypted SMS.

This is why I switched to SMSSecure. It's a TextSecure fork that continues to support encrypted SMS direct to the phone and not through a server of any kind.
