  @signalapp @tecnomobile It's not just a telco. A lot of the phones seems to disable Signal by default. I received a lot of complaint that Signal does not issue notification when new message arrives. This is from M'sia.

  SIGNAL notification problem on Tecno Smartphones is apparently caused by the "Auto-Start Management" setting in the Phone Master tool. @tecnomobile, kindly fix the problem. @signalapp

  @signalapp My friends and I have moved over to your app, and we are enjoying it very much. We do, however, question the lack of colour on the iOS app and the below-par group video call service. Get a lot of feedback on group calls - need to reconfigure the noise-gate, perhaps?

  @sk4rn @signalapp Ahahah that's awesome! Mine is on Feb 9th! I hate that they make you wait 30 days... Just trying to get you to make a mistake and connect by error so it won't be deleted...

  @signalapp I'm having a very weird issue with your app. My friend, "A", is in 2 group chats with me. I get A's messages in Group Chat #1 both on phone + desktop client, but in Group Chat #2, I only receive his messages on the desktop client, nothing on phone. Any idea why? Thx.

  @signalapp Dear Sir, There is a problem with the video chat feature of the Signal app. Sometimes the sound is not transmitted. Sometimes the image is not transmitted. It does not alert the call. Please try to fix these issues.

  @Crusox @signalapp I'm definitely up to date on my phone, I'll check for desktop client. Could the issue be that "A" isn't running the updated mobile app?

  @balon525 @signalapp I'm not sure that's what Signal is for.. Sounds like what you're looking for is a forum with mod controls.or maybe creating a Subreddit. Signal's a messaging platform not a broadcast service.

  @wiredfire @FardinnFahad @signalapp Good. Signal is not every other service. Its a simple messaging app who primary focus is security and privacy. Period. You want WhatsApp features? Stay on WhatsApp or use what you refer to as "every other service"

  @signalapp You can actually carve a niche for your app without dragging Facebook down. I don't recall Facebook dragging other apps down to stand. I'm constrained to think that you guys actually have no decent growth strategy. Sad.🙄

  @signalapp I've sent in debug logs. This can be done from the settings menu and help. Please do so if you haven't
