    @signalapp ...need option to Star messages for searchability and buggy error causing ************ no signal notifications no matter what I do (ALL TROUBLE SHOOTING FOLLOWED ) to turn them on. (Even after contacting company x3 now with no response!)

  • chaibapat Chaitanya Bapat (@chaibapat) reported

    @sohamkanade @signalapp As far as service being down as the motivation for migrating, such outages happen with many tech companies once a year or so.. while that's not an excuse for improving service availability, it'll be interesting to see if that outage becomes a tipping point.

  • kindri9 MS (@kindri9) reported

    @signalapp any issues with app dropping from iPhone 12 menus?

  • shankarmukhje Shankar (@shankarmukhje) reported

    @signalapp - some issue with your App on iOS? The app is continuously asking for Face ID validation. It’s gone into an endless loop. #signalappnotworking

  • Tammoo_ Tammo Wß (@Tammoo_) reported

    @signalapp Why is there no option to NOT scale down pictures? Some of us don't care about data useage

  • markus_ottela maqp (@markus_ottela) reported

    @hareinegi @signalapp @BriarApp Actually I take the Ricochet back as a recommendation, not only is the site down, the old v2 Onions stop working in October so unless the project sees an update, it's deprecated.

  • korikakiyomi SrkV (@korikakiyomi) reported

    @signalapp Please help me, I can’t login to my new iPhone!

  • markus_ottela maqp (@markus_ottela) reported

    @CgGeagea @signalapp Signal works without Google Play Services, you can opt out if you want to. "without some other app--" Signal is the app you'd replace WA with. An outage isn't a pressing reason I agree with you on that. But there's plenty of other reasons, mostly Facebook aggregating metadata.

  • binduamadhav Bindu 🐘 (@binduamadhav) reported from The Colony, Texas

    @signalapp How about you fix the spamming on your app first ?

    @signalapp seems to be an issue with notifications showing up in iOS? I only get a notification once I open the app. Have enabled all notifications in iOS.

  • somersuo Tommi Somersuo (@somersuo) reported

    @whatsabschalten @signalapp Yes, but the issue is more like: I receive a signal message. I get notification (+bubble). If I ignore it for minute or two, I hear the notification sound again - for the same message if I have not dismissed the notification

  • acedrew Definitely not a musician - My Cat (@acedrew) reported

    @risknc @signalapp Teams would be really good, but cross organization collaboration is broken worse than it was in slack before slack fixed it. I spend way too much time in these platforms.

    @liamosaur @signalapp Damn. Quick fix @signalapp please, or we're going to lose the converted back to the hovels of wotsup et al.

  • CurtMonash Curt Monash (@CurtMonash) reported

    @iyad_elbaghdadi @signalapp I wonder whether that's accurate. Most reporting just referred to the opening of a presumably regional office. (General note: If you ever want help reading tech news, hit me up. I'm one of the world's experts at that.)
