Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

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

    @saimecs @signalapp @EFF A lot of virtual keyboards have been caught recording keystrokes, it's an OS problem but can be mitigated and users expecting secure comms should be made aware of it.

  • man_rat_ YouTube.com/ManRat (@man_rat_) reported

    @tweetByClaus @signalapp Any idea when the fix will take place. Relatives in india only have cell service for internet and no wifi, calls arent going through and due to tech/age they cant send the info. Please help

  • KDPuvvadi KD Puvvadi #WearAMask (@KDPuvvadi) reported

    @signalapp Hay, Do i need to disable Cloudflare DNS proxy to be able issue the cert and provide the proxy?

  • lukejmorrison Luke Morrison (@lukejmorrison) reported

    @signalapp @bakhtaki Can't you add them to the app. So even if the main service is blocked then it just prompts the user to update their TLS proxy. Then we don't have to share them publicly and have them blocked?

  • catchin9up Catchin9UP (@catchin9up) reported

    @signalapp It's time to delete whatsapp but yet some media received on Signal cant be downloaded, some error occurs, please fix it soon

    @signalapp message notifications issue... Unless you open the app, you cant see the notifications, most of time. 😔

  • SuperHeronDan Dan Heron (@SuperHeronDan) reported

    Reminder WhatsApp new terms of service were to go into effect tomorrow. If you care about that kind of thing now is the time to delete your account. Move to @telegram and @signalapp

  • SwissTeslaphile Roman Müller 🔋🚙 (@SwissTeslaphile) reported

    @signalapp love the app. My wife struggles with her Android as it doesn't give her notifications of nr messages unread on screen. The notifications in the drop down thingy are there. Any idea?

  • tweetByClaus Claudiu (@tweetByClaus) reported

    @man_rat_ @signalapp Can you explain your problem in more detail ? cause it sounds like it might not be Signals fault, and they've also added a Proxy option to the app, So I can give you a proxy address to use and see if it solves the problem... or help you setup a proxy server yourself, if you want

  • sha_dow18 1981 (@sha_dow18) reported

    @signalapp we can’t view the profile pics on iOS. Can you Kindly fix the problem in next update ?

  • RaphanusR Raphanus Raphanistrum (@RaphanusR) reported

    @signalapp servers go down due to huge influx of privacy concious people signing up. Imagine what happens when the same people discover #Monero

  • Sam_Mudaser Rebel🔫 (@Sam_Mudaser) reported

    Facing this problem while calling on @signalapp seems to consume more mobile data than WhatsApp. The data consumption in signal is very High. Will it be fixed?

  • erdmaennchen42 Stephan Lukasczyk (@erdmaennchen42) reported

    @Mat2095 @ThreemaApp @signalapp I've had some issues with group chats in Signal, too. But that's years ago, works well now at least for what I can tell. There is only one reason, people could complain about Threema: they charge you money—which is fine for me but obviously not for everyone.
