    I was just getting ready to move from Whatsapp to @signalapp While testing it I sometimes wasn't able to send or receive messages any more. It said I wasn't connected to the internet - all other apps worked fine though! Only a restart solved the issue. Is this a known bug?

  • jherr Jack Herrington (@jherr) reported

    @natterstefan @signalapp I had a bunch of issues with Signal app vs desktop where things would get horribly out of sync and I'd lose conversations. If that kinda stuff is fixed I'd use it again.

  • souravraj0 Sourav raj (@souravraj0) reported

    @signalapp There is one more issue with signal ... If you do voice call or video call for more than an hour you'll experience device heating issue.

    @signalapp Followed the instructions on the website to to deregister and delete my account. Keep getting an error message when I try to delete, I'd like to know why?

  • somogyianthony TonySomo (@somogyianthony) reported

    Sorry @signalapp but your app doesn’t ring (anymore)... missed calls and messages. This is a chronic problem on IOS; I’ve done your suggested fixes to no avail. If it doesn’t ring on my phone or those I call it’s just not a useful app.

  • Corekane Jonathan Williams (@Corekane) reported

    @psx_ps @signalapp They have harsh compression because they claim it’s for others who have slow Internet. In the next update they’ll fix the compression.

  • battenza90 battenza (@battenza90) reported

  • joeytwinfin TWIN FIN PANIC (@joeytwinfin) reported

    @signalapp Anyone else getting @amazon scam phishing messages to their signal number? I have used WhatsApp for years and never had any issues! I want to know what @signalapp are doing to rectify this issue and I want to know how scammers/hackers got access to their phone number database 😡

  • nick4mony Nick the Geek (@nick4mony) reported

    @BWillOfficial @Asher_Wolf @signalapp Of course there's a bit of an issue with fake caller ID, so we await widespread deployment of tougher standards ... ⏳

  • engagedpractx Daniel Reeders 🏳️‍⚧️ (@engagedpractx) reported

  • JThomasBurgess Thomas Burgess (@JThomasBurgess) reported

    @synesti @signalapp they were down for a few hours for some people

  • babysully Sully (@babysully) reported from Wixom, Michigan

    @signalapp Still cannot send to non signal users unless I resend the text multiple times. Still having an issue????

  • arjunken Arjun (@arjunken) reported

    @signalapp friends at Signal, please fix the bug that adds a lot of echo while doing a video call. This happens especially when you do long distance calls. Please check.

  • MichaelKnoefler Michael Knöfler (@MichaelKnoefler) reported

    @BlankFX_ @ArMalic_Ns @signalapp Somebody who what’s to get a service for free and it’s not even willing to change their language for one official message does not even deserve that kind of service. If you don’t want to pay with your privacy you need to donate for Signal to let them have more possibilities.

  • virtuallyou2 Virtuallyou (@virtuallyou2) reported

    @signalapp yeah mine was down for about half an hour. was wondering what happened.
