  • TimB_Tweets Tim (@TimB_Tweets) reported

    @msrastad @Shayan86 @signalapp Those still run over the Internet backbone. Shut down the Internet and they go too.

  • gaidheileamail1 @gunchleoc@mastodon.scot (@gaidheileamail1) reported

    @KonstantWeddige @signalapp From what I've read, the biggest problem right now is still the phone activation 😢

  • sheenofsky شینوفسکی (@sheenofsky) reported

    @signalapp Iran numbers still don’t recieve verification codes through sms. Please enable an alternative way to sign up or login like email.

  • Ali_ng8 A L I (@Ali_ng8) reported

    @signalapp No sms or call activation for iran We can't register please fix this

  • isecfry InfoSecFry (@isecfry) reported

    @signalapp Folks, you make it impossible for iranians to register by sending the verification code via GSM network which gets easily filtered by the government. What exactly should the people there do with signal proxies and download links? Fix the verification process!

  • KarzanYousefi گاد بودن یا نبودن (@KarzanYousefi) reported

    @AnonOpsSE @signalapp Fix the internet Thankful

  • vales7 Valentin Toth (@vales7) reported

    Is @signalapp hacked by #Pegasus? YES. A Hungarian intelligence officer tells @direkt36 that many of his active colleagues signed up to #Signal in 2018, when per local policies employees could only use apps the secret service was capable of monitoring. 👇

  • MellMollabasi Melina Mollaabasi (@MellMollabasi) reported

    @mki_Miracle @AnonymousVideo @signalapp #مهسا_امینی #MahsaAmini #opIran We all have the same issue🥲

  • orbatos orbatos (@orbatos) reported

    @russellboverton @aquintex @signalapp This is a less compelling point than it may seem, and the context that matters is their offer to provide service for others. Similar arguments are often made and this *has* resulted in harm to disadvantaged people, so please evaluate concerns as they are intended.

  • sadeqzafarian مد مکس (@sadeqzafarian) reported

    @signalapp Downloading the app is not only our problem The massage band in iran operator and we cant recived massage or call for log in code plz use inother way

    @Zarebamo @signalapp Hi Ali, sorry to hear this and sorry for sharing the link. I was only hoping to help🥴

  • larryhau Larry Hau 🇺🇸🇺🇦 (@larryhau) reported

    @robertlemke @signalapp Commenting to come back to this if anyone answers. Googling has been no help

  • inazkam نازلی کاموری (@inazkam) reported

    @signalapp Also, consider that many Iranians who go to the protests have to uninstall the Signal app and reinstall it when they get back home just to be safe. This verification problem is significant, many have lost access to their Signal app as a result.

  • mer__edith Meredith Whittaker (@mer__edith) reported

    @xzzzxxzx @inazkam @signalapp The registration code issues are happening at the level of the telecom infrastructure, which sadly we don't have control over. We are aware of the problem and monitoring.

  • TutanotaTeam Tutanota (@TutanotaTeam) reported

    Signal has recently reported that their service has been blocked in Iran. The blocking of @signalapp is a direct attack on the secure communication of activists.

  • ZarebinGraphic Ali Zarebin 🏴 (@ZarebinGraphic) reported

    @GibsonShirin @signalapp Currently i don't have difficulty download the app , but have problem with signup and receive sms code !

  • vahidlazio Vahid (@vahidlazio) reported

    @signalapp Could you also introduce logging in with email or username/password? Now the login depends if the operators let the sms or call actually happen which is blocked in critical times like this.
