    @whatsabschalten @signalapp Dang it... didn't * it didn't help

  • evty28 ʎpoqǝɯoS (@evty28) reported

    @denizdg_n @signalapp There appear to be bug in current desktop version. Downgrading to 1.39.4, unlinking from the iOS app, then re-linking will fix your issue.

  • salihkunduznet Salih Kunduz (@salihkunduznet) reported

    Hey @signalapp Using a Xiaomi phone, The voice notes are processed with an annoying effect. It doesn't happen with any other app but just signal. Already sent you an email with an audio sample but haven't got any response or fix yet

  • whatsabschalten 🇩🇪 WhatsAbschalten #TeamSignal (@whatsabschalten) reported

    @SQL314 @DuckDuckGo @signalapp Oh you want to use the same number on multiple devices. Of course you can't. I thought you had problems with the installation on the tablet in general.

  • PrateekKaswa PK (@PrateekKaswa) reported

    Please solve the issue @signalapp

  • SyedImranFaroo3 Syed Imran Farooq (@SyedImranFaroo3) reported

    @signalapp hi your PC App not working properly please improve it & give option 32 bit operating system.

  • rodriguesfhs Fábio Rodrigues (@rodriguesfhs) reported

    @signalapp the app is bypassing iOS14 do not disturb (I keep getting messages even with Do not disturb). Same issue on Android. Any way to fix it? Thanks!

  • dink1004 **** murphey (@dink1004) reported

    Trying to love the #SignalApp for messaging but am NOT please with it freezing up my phone continually. Obviously popular movement of people vacating WhatsApp and others but NOT if you're not ready @signalapp ! I'm so pissed! Give me some hope! Fix this **** please.

  • not_Shashank not_shashank (@not_Shashank) reported

    @signalapp Hi Team, Loving the privacy focused approach of @signalapp however, I'm unable to use it on my Samsung Tablet, it shows as unsupported device. Can we expect support for tablets soon? Or is there is an issue in only my particular case?

  • Cheges12 Marie (@Cheges12) reported

    @signalapp is there another outage right now??? 😭😭😭

  • 9pokerface ANIRUDH (@9pokerface) reported

    @signalapp It's again down with the latest update. This is your @zoom_us moment. Please don't ruin it.

  • i_relish_code Muhammad Iqbal (@i_relish_code) reported

    Today, I switched to @signalapp from @WhatsApp because of the coercive new terms of service by whatsApp. I chose signal over telegram because it is free as well as opensource, developed following gold standards with no commercial ambitions.

  • narazamsa Axat (@narazamsa) reported

    @signalapp Messages going slow still, buffer time. Please fix this.

  • msnazee നൗഷീന്റെ മാത്രം നസീക്കാ™🇮🇳 (@msnazee) reported

    I am getting multiple echoes in audio, while making audio video or group audio/video calls on @signalapp the audio echoes multiple times and reverbes. This continues with 'relay calls' switched on or off. What could be done to fix the echo in audio? @elonmusk @brianacton

  • Maniacbolts Manny (@Maniacbolts) reported

    @Aruschandran @signalapp the problem is phone numbers.

  • harish_0707 Harish (@harish_0707) reported

    @signalapp hello team, if you could arrange a whatsapp data backup in Signalapp, that would help most people like me to migrate to Signal immediately #randomThought #Signal

  • Omarfatthy8 Omarfatthy (@Omarfatthy8) reported

    @signalapp Hi.I am trying to sign up a new account to the Signal app with my phone number(valid in my phone)but I am not getting the code that is required to complete the sign up. Also,I tried the "Call me for the code";I got no calls. I tried these several times but the issue...

  • Maniacbolts Manny (@Maniacbolts) reported

    @nuitNo6 @elonmusk @signalapp they might have more trouble sifting through the troll comments haha

  • kaiserschorizo Kaisers Chorizo (@kaiserschorizo) reported

    @signalapp Thank you Signal for your service. These past few days is more evidence that Facebook and Whatsapp is garbage.

  • RealSexyCyborg Naomi Wu 机械妖姬 (@RealSexyCyborg) reported

    @PrivaCat This has been going on for over a year- instant replies from @SignalApp and @moxie to all issues raised, provided they're raised but the "right sort of people". Dead silence for me. Then this comes up and they are "too busy".

  • Northernfire Northern Fire (@Northernfire) reported

    @signalapp Is your service still under pressure? I can send messages and people receive it but not the other way round. My phone keeps silent :(

  • pixelschubsen pixelschubsen.de (@pixelschubsen) reported

  • jport1975 jport (@jport1975) reported

    @signalapp THIS IS THE SECOND TWEET TO YOU: Why do we have to constantly reset secure session? On a weekly basis I am unable to communicate with my group, we go through verify security numbers, and reset secure session, and still have issues. Please assist.

  • andy_park Andy Park (@andy_park) reported

    @MattSidor @signalapp I submitted a bug log after doing all you suggested. Thanks for your help!

  • Ruzjaraba Sofía Ruz Jaraba (@Ruzjaraba) reported

    @signalapp, @moxie the verification code SMS doesn't delivery to me, can you help me? I can't create a signal account.

  • __gilou__ Gilou (@__gilou__) reported

    @waxzce Or maybe, we can make @signalapp better and fix the issues we have with it? Or is that too crazy? The network effect is a problem, but Signal, company and foundation don't seem that closed to suggestions or contributions?

  • whatsabschalten 🇩🇪 WhatsAbschalten #TeamSignal (@whatsabschalten) reported

    @dink1004 @signalapp Just trying to help...

  • MarcPhilippeB Marc ₿aumann (@MarcPhilippeB) reported

    @signalapp when do you plan to make chat backups possible on iOS? I would love to switch to @signalapp but I can’t afford losing my entire conversation history when my phone breaks down, gets lost or stolen.

  • Jacob69606553 Jacob (@Jacob69606553) reported

    @signalapp started facing an issue with the Signal Android application. Messages are slowly sent without apparent reason (network quality is good and other applications works just fine)
