  • Dark_God Paul Smith (@Dark_God) reported

    @signalapp Is there an issue with the Signal servers at them moment? My messages are not getting delivered to my friends phone for 40 minutes but they are on Instagram and their internet connection is absolutely fine. Many thanks.

  • __ljrk Leonard/Janis Robert König (@__ljrk) reported

    @signalapp Smart watches are less prone to breaking, more water resistant and much less of a danger to get addicted to :-) Now I just need to wait for capitalism to solve my problem :'-D

  • bexelbie Brian “bex” Exelbierd (@bexelbie) reported

    @1angdon @Apple There is a lot not to love about texting, but Apple’s iMessage, like @signalapp and others is by definition multi-device capable. I think the real problem is the lack of ability to apply rules/filters easily and that phone number is a terrible identifier.

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

    @Mds94Ryan @signalapp The chat history is only stored locally on your smartphone. #Signal does not have any data about you. What exactly is your problem?

  • mako4111978 Pablo (@mako4111978) reported

    @signalapp hi there I wish you could help me I have my account blocked because I forgot my pin, I need to use this amazing app, but I don’t get an answer from you. I don’t wish to recover any data just can use the app and create a new pin. Can you help. Thanks.

  • robmv Robert Marcano (@robmv) reported

    The chat inside @gmail is really bad on Android, a relative has been sending me messages all day (using it instead of @signalapp because her phone is broken) and nearly all times, no notification is shown. Mail notifications arrive without problems, so it isn't an app sleep issue

  • quant_arb Stat Arb (@quant_arb) reported

    @signalapp it’s ******* annoying how it messages everyone you know when you join telegram. I know people who refuse to download the app because of this. Fix it!

  • brammarb Bram (@brammarb) reported

    @signalapp Are you having delivery issues? Been getting some messages with +12hr delays ...

  • vathpela Farce Majeure🌹 (@vathpela) reported

    @DethVeggie @signalapp I've had this before, and I managed to get out of it eventually... I think if you hold down the send button to manually select unencrypted once or twice in a row it'll switch back? But not particularly clear.

  • jimio jimio (@jimio) reported

    @RobinHoodTV @signalapp we’ve got a fix in v5.40, coming soon! (addresses a QR-scanning issue with several device types) 🙏

  • DethVeggie Deth Veggie (@DethVeggie) reported

    I've been using @signalapp for years, but occasionally I encounter a frustrating issue where one of my contacts stops using signal, but Signal doesn't recognize that they're not using it anymore -- I can't seem to find a way to "purge" them from signal and go back to SMS then.

  • NJDevils26 Lou (@NJDevils26) reported

    @signalapp messages are not delivering and it’s been an issue all day. No one from support has gotten back to me

  • LauryAnnne Laury-Anne (@LauryAnnne) reported

    @signalapp i have an issue with the note part we can use in your app. The messages I send to myself disappear after a while but the temporary option is deactivated.

  • weitzelb consider the climate (@weitzelb) reported

    .@signalapp has some serious UX issues that would take nothing to fix. For example, a sibling group chat: Amy Webler - hi Andrew Webler - sup Arnold Webler - where's mom? Amanda Webler - who's mom? (AW ...) <--- "is typing" WHICH AW IS TYPING!?!

  • D_Yoxon Daniel Yoxon (@D_Yoxon) reported

    @signalapp Why are calls from iPhone to iPhone on signal not working in Australia? This has been happening for a couple of weeks now.

  • RobinHoodTV Robin. H 🇨🇭 (@RobinHoodTV) reported

    Hello @signalapp ! I can't link my signal app on OSX with my phone because the camera freezes when I try to cach the QR code. The bug is on Redmi Note 11, can you help me?

  • DethVeggie Deth Veggie (@DethVeggie) reported

    @Do0g7e @signalapp @WhatsApp I mean, pretty much everyone I communicate with is already on Signal. The only time I've encountered issues is where someone WAS on signal, and then deleted the app.

  • chris122380 Christopher Anthony (@chris122380) reported

    @signalapp contacts are still broken on Oxygen OS 12. I have submitted another log after a fresh install of signal.

  • bexelbie Brian “bex” Exelbierd (@bexelbie) reported from Kraków, Województwo Małopolskie

    @1angdon @Apple @signalapp That flips the whole convo to SMS, iirc. That is still possible to receive on multiple devices but that requires user intervention, iirc. I think the challenge is a bit of elitism, a desire to avoid SMS fees, and the problem of having an app chat mixed with an SMS program.

  • A_Houghton37 🌴Big Al 🇦🇺🇹🇭🇬🇧 (@A_Houghton37) reported

    @jgarzik @signalapp @element_hq I'm not surprised. It's a terrible app.

  • Suntosh001 nEw iNboX (@Suntosh001) reported

    @WhatsApp after update - under media auto downloads-unable to choose “never”it resets back to default -wifi cellular,wifi for audio,videos,photos&documents (for an iPhone) fix this bug else will move to @signalapp

  • ex3v Maciej Szkamruk (@ex3v) reported

    @Stan_tastisch @manmanchan7 @signalapp Why Apple? Does Apple make it impossible to download chats backup file from the cloud down to the phone? No. From my POV it's signal's fault that this file cannot be processed and imported, because it is in the end available.

  • tiedcone Jarek (@tiedcone) reported

    @signalapp Fix notification system please. I had to say sorry to WhatsApp due to always late notifications on Signal. Tested with several devices and users.

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

    @NJDevils26 @signalapp Do you still have the problem? If so via mobile and WiFi? What exactly is displayed to you?

  • mackoushko macko usko (@mackoushko) reported

    @signalapp messages not arriving, calls never picked. Tons of phones. Took me years to realize the service actually doesn't work. I have like 2% success in calls, had incredible stress with undelivered messages, and today it's the realization time. Gotta self host messaging.

  • PortiaSC Portia (@PortiaSC) reported from Bristol, England

    @signalapp is there an issue at the moment, msg sent but sot delivered

  • SonicTerrorist Sonic T (@SonicTerrorist) reported

    @signalapp Hi, for a long time now I don't receive a notification for a voice call, just a missed call, same when I call others. Video calls work fine. Other friends report the same issue. Any idea why please?

  • xarbit Jason Scurtu (@xarbit) reported

    I’d rather use @signalapp illegal in the EU then use signal legally if you choose to follow the planned eu regulations. Please resist or i would simply stop using any messenger service. #sensursula #privacymatters @Europarl_EN

  • orionwl @orionwl@x0f.org (@orionwl) reported

    @theinstagibbs @signalapp or maybe it's an issue with the flatpak, that it forgets its state after an upgrade (but i don't think it's entirely the case i did see old logs)

  • ADoug ADoug (@ADoug) reported

    Every single time @signalapp asks me for my backup pin (which is on-average every 3 days); I have to look it up in my PW manager. This is not working to make people remember their PIN. In fact it's probably encouraging users to pick weak PINS, or disable this PW feature. 0/5⭐
