-
Nothingness (@TheEyelessOwl) reported@signalapp is the app down or something, things were fine for days now me messages take forever to go through, but even when they become two circles with a checkmark they never fill anymore and I get no responses???
-
Z (@N2K4A8) reported@enteio its great to see to companies being honest, i dont think they had any strong encryption in the first place but its sad that everything out there have some issues like slow speed, ui/ux bugs, no proper business model, etc except for @signalapp , but needs number to signup
-
swenlei (@swenlei56) reported@dedelaugesen @signalapp no that's the app trying to help you remember your pin through spaced repetition. if that gets annoying pretty sure you could turn it off in settings the recent phishing campaigns are different to what you mention
-
Marcin Nolte 🇵🇱🇩🇪🇺🇸 (@NolteIT) reported@signalapp Military-grade encryption. Zero infrastructure compromises. And then: “Hi, this is Signal Support Bot, please confirm your verification code.” The math was never the problem.
-
AzadiAzadiAaazadi (@RaziehAskari) reported@signalapp Day 79: Iran's government silences its people by cutting off the internet. Without connection, voices are extinguished. You have the power to help amplify them. Please, use your influence to stand with us. #DigitalBlackOutIran #IranRevolution2026
-
Beyond AI (@BeyondAI01) reported@signalapp If the infrastructure and encryption of Signal remain uncompromised, then this is a social engineering problem, not a platform breach. User awareness is the real defense here.
-
Radha Khan (@RadhaKhn) reported@dubeyamitabh @signalapp hmm, that is everyone switches, problem is most won't, so stuck to same old!
-
MarcG (@ThisisMarcG) reported@ritrixi @signalapp Its great for the login, but There was a decent argument for phone numbers, in order to gate the signups while still keeping it free. which made sense a while back. Passkeys still need a fallback & Users are sharing that fallback. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
-
Iroko OKAPI 🇫🇷🇪🇺☢️🇺🇦🧌🐍🎼 (@IrokoOkapi) reportedThe issue here, isn't marketshare, like in the case of WhatsApp vs @signalapp
-
𝔖𝔱𝔢𝔫 𝔙 (@Toobydoo) reported@naomibrockwell @signalapp Signal really is a problem fronting features. Even if your an experience computer user with some experience securing things, it’s often not obvious what to do or where to go.
-
Goldfish 🟠 (@Gold_Phishy) reported@bdmurdock @signalapp It does. As a security guy, I don't mind a few seconds to secure. I have however seen people putting in a lot of effort to get round our controls at work, for ease of use. I'll always try and have a chat and see what the actual issue is, and if we can do something.
-
Bogdan Popa 🇪🇺 (@BogdanMPopa) reported@ProtonPrivacy My main issue with @signalapp is I cannot use the same account on more than one smartphone
-
Dustin (BusySignal-KE2EFX) (@DustinFinn) reportedOMFG - these arm chair security people calling this recent issue where iOS notifications where preview messages were held - calling it a @signalapp issue are just making me nuts. It’s an #OpSec issue / if you’re concerned - security is not one app it’s an entire process.
-
Man with scandalous behavior (@giyasibrahim) reported@signalapp @grok Why doesn't Signal use email login instead of number?
-
Biddaddy (@biddaddy_lc) reported@signalapp @404mediaco lowkey wild that it took a leak for this fix
-
صدایی تو جهانم نیست♐ (@Love_Lorn9952) reported@signalapp I am writing to report a persistent issue with receiving the registration/verification SMS code in Iran.
-
NullCoiner (@NullCoinerETH) reported.@signalapp down?
-
Kata Saya (@Tree_0flife) reported@manasiwibi @signalapp Yes. It's still a problem. Hallo? Can you fix it signal?
-
Bombardino Crocodillo (@io32kmd0c93j30m) reported@signalapp @404mediaco Apple could just read it from Apple Push Notification service right?
-
Nasser (@nasser_kari) reportedI've enjoyed using @signalapp for a long time but this week I've tried hard to open it on my Windows laptop and each time am getting this error popup. Even after downloading it via the browser and Microsoft Store, the results are the same. Please @signalapp team, tell us what's going on with the Signal we all love.
-
SignalVoyager (@signalvoyager) reported@notesnook @signalapp Signal devs must lead the way leading other devs to takre control back. They should guide other devs. Yet they follow common protocols and win stupid prices like this. Then cry for Apple support to help them fix things. I expect better from Signal. (n/n)
-
Wade J. Beckett (@wadejbeckett) reported@signalapp please fix the attachment limitation on desktop clients. I don't like having to use WhatsApp just to send multiple files to a contact.
-
Adrielle silva (@AdriellePro) reported@signalapp Know that where I'm headed is ALL YOUR FAULT! It all started with your name! So you might see me down today! And you didn't lift a finger to help me. But I'm not alone! You could be my worst enemy.
-
Tristan 🦦 (@TristandeAlwis) reported@signalapp Handing over login credentials to “support” is an intelligence test at this point.
-
Scare Crow (@Crowbar1910171) reported@signalapp is not working for them all
-
👨🏼💻🧉 Víctor Hugo Valle Castillo 🇦🇷🇨🇦 (@vihuvac) reported@signalapp is down! 😭
-
BrendanEich (@BrendanEich) reported@marchofer @signalapp Not so fast. There's a Signal issue here.
-
जनित्र (@by_inkriya) reported@signalapp hello there, do you know if anyone with Indonesian phone number (+62 code) having trouble installing your app? We suspect that our provider somehow blocking your verification message, some friends got registration problem and can not continue the installing process.
-
ARQ (@ARQ1481987) reported@chat If this meant to compete with @signalapp the open-source the whole thing; otherwise it’s hard to the see the point… can you help us to see the point?
-
AmiR Rashidi (@Ammir) reportedFirebase Phone Number Verification going GA matters far beyond developer convenience. In countries like #Iran, where SMS verification codes are often blocked or unreliable, SMS-less phone verification could help users register for secure apps — if adopted by apps like @signalapp.
