Signal Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Dustin (BusySignal-KE2EFX) (@DustinFinn) reportedOMFG - these arm chair security people calling this recent issue where iOS notifications where preview messages were held - calling it a @signalapp issue are just making me nuts. It’s an #OpSec issue / if you’re concerned - security is not one app it’s an entire process.
-
Notesnook (@notesnook) reported@signalvoyager @signalapp What's the mistake? Enabling notifications? This is not isolated to Signal. If it were then we'd have a problem. Every single app's notifications gets saved in a place and manner that is outside that app's control. There's no opt out. That is why Apple fixed it.
-
Ben has opinions. (@RealAndersonBen) reported@chriskalos_xyz @signalapp They still have servers. They just don't store unencrypted messages or encryption keys on them. Also, they are Amazon's servers that are down. Everything that uses AWS is affected.
-
Scare Crow (@Crowbar1910171) reported@signalapp is not working for them all
-
Stephen Gary (@missyNelso69913) reported@signalapp Rule of the internet: If someone asks for your verification code, they’re trying to steal your account. No legit service will ever ask for it. Stay sharp.
-
1LemonADay (parody of an apple) (@1lemonaday) reported@signalapp You seem to be experiencing an outage
-
Aleksi Sjöberg (@aleksisjoberg) reported@nullc0py @signalapp @404mediaco Of course that _could_ be a feature, but: - many receiving such messages would think something is broken - the recipient must have control of their own device's behavior over the sender - the real risk is the human at the other end most of the time
-
Chris Harger (@mastasnake176) reported@VictoriaCFontan @signalapp Stop giving strangers your login.
-
miguel (@Miguelwtfzu) reported@vonderburchard @signalapp Layer 8 problem
-
AmiR Rashidi (@Ammir) reportedFirebase Phone Number Verification going GA matters far beyond developer convenience. In countries like #Iran, where SMS verification codes are often blocked or unreliable, SMS-less phone verification could help users register for secure apps — if adopted by apps like @signalapp.
-
शाश्वोत ढुंगाना🇳🇵☭ (@ShaswotNepal) reported@signalapp @404mediaco SMS Provider is down for Nepal. i am unable to log in to new device. fix it ASAP.
-
Saman (@Saman3862379687) reported@Shahinlooo Millions of Iranians cannot contact their families or receive emergency alerts.The Islamic Republic regime of the mullahs has shut down the internet inside Iran to prevent the voice of truth of the Iranian people from reaching the world. @Cloudflare @Signalapp
-
🇸🇰 Ivan Jaros (@IvanJaros) reported@TechloreInc @signalapp should fix this by only notifying about a received message and sender without preview of its content
-
Nick Cairns (@simpin4pepe) reported@signalapp This is literally as old as dial up. I may or may not have done it way back when AOL was a pay per hour service. Send out 3000 messages all at once and have chat log turned on. Account would get nuked in 5 min, go to the log and there would be five more accounts.
-
name (@seqnzes) reported@phillipstewart @signalapp This is a standard setting on every messaging app, and Apple fixed the issue of caching them. It was never a security flaw with Signal.
-
S'pakpaku (@U_Siphoz) reported@pule_jones Think issue is people really fell for this end to end encryption ye WhatsApp. Notice not one @telegram or @signalapp in the evidence since since
-
S.A.P (@SAP127001) reportedApple kind of fixed the @signalapp notification cache issue. Admitted a notification log issue, yet the iOS apps still require deleting to remove cache.
-
Oyindamola⛓️ (@bitcoinzaddy) reported@signalapp Can you please fix the erratic behavior of Signal when registering with a +234 number? pleaseee
-
that stupid pleiadeas Kelpalots // Asperger's 🌟 (@KelpalotsNet) reported@signalapp These code nightmares are exactly what I might have a problem with, to every company. Hackers use more than computers to steal the codes and then make them unviable before usage. @Google A lot of code numbers went to me, but were not useable during the timeframe. They also tried to get past my brick my password trick. I'm thinking that the three enemies I have are a tad bit more than three, and there is one other one who throws valueable hardware into a single vat, just to cause pollution and degrade reality [hardware]. Their main goal was to make every single number code unuseable. Including auth timed numbers. That is all.

Adrielle silva (@AdriellePro) reported@signalapp Know that where I'm headed is ALL YOUR FAULT! It all started with your name! So you might see me down today! And you didn't lift a finger to help me. But I'm not alone! You could be my worst enemy.
-
Dark Lord Pika (@cryptoguideen) reported@JustNews_tg @signalapp Technology cannot fix human error. All the encryption in the world won't save you from yourself.
-
MarcG (@ThisisMarcG) reported@ritrixi @signalapp Its great for the login, but There was a decent argument for phone numbers, in order to gate the signups while still keeping it free. which made sense a while back. Passkeys still need a fallback & Users are sharing that fallback. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
-
Mohammad Belayet Sarder 🇧🇩🇵🇸 (@MBelayetSarder) reported@signalapp Having issues to reregister on #iPhone. Always shows 'something-went-wrong.-try - after - sometime" message. :(
-
BrendanEich (@BrendanEich) reported@NivalCat @signalapp Signal has always (since TextSecure) used phone number as primary user identifier — that’s not the issue.
-
Radha Khan (@RadhaKhn) reported@dubeyamitabh @signalapp hmm, that is everyone switches, problem is most won't, so stuck to same old!
-
Liran Cohen (CTV + CSFS) (@itsLIRAN) reported@simulx4 @signalapp I'm working on it! It's a hard problem to solve, and even with my current solution there is some metadata leakage. Some of the metadata can be obfuscated for protocols that aren't many-to-many in large numbers.
-
Bogdan Popa 🇪🇺 (@BogdanMPopa) reported@ProtonPrivacy My main issue with @signalapp is I cannot use the same account on more than one smartphone
-
alienznbotz.nft (@alienznbotz) reported@signalapp Hello, why can't Android users not send a vídeo without having to have enable Google Photos App to be able to compress any video. Why can't it be independent of Google photos for compression like WhatsApp does. Please address this issue. Thank you.
-
Kata Saya (@Tree_0flife) reported@signalapp hey any known issues registering the app in Indonesia?
-
Ari (@arixanxim) reported@signalapp give us closed captioning for video calls, this is a massive accessibility issue!
