  • ShitijKumar1978 Shitij Kumar (@ShitijKumar1978) reported

    @signalapp Team, please check as sending files (pdf) & location are not working....

  • Andre06511 Andres Barkil-Oteo (@Andre06511) reported

    @lynnzovighian @signalapp Right, the date field drove me crazy, it has a glitch, I ended up filling a paper one that no one took because I had to give the same info again on arrival

  • Sanjay_Maz Sanjay Mazumdar (@Sanjay_Maz) reported

    @signalapp I'm not receiving any notifications despite following trouble shooting instructions on your website. Using Android 11 on Pixel 3a. Any help is appreciated. Have you heard others experience similar issues?

  • nvstuiter nvs (@nvstuiter) reported

    @signalapp Please fix video call connections, notifications, behaviour..

  • EmaTigi Tigist S. Hussen (@EmaTigi) reported

    @KasayeRH @signalapp Kass'ye signal had technical problems, did they fix it?

  • gozoforever Wedge Antilles (@gozoforever) reported

    I wanted to clarify, I‘ve been using @signalapp for over 2 years without any problems. I love Signal and have converted lots of people to the app. It‘s the only messenger I use apart from imessage, which is why I‘m a bit worried at the moment & hope the problem will be resolved!

  • swoop75 Allan (@swoop75) reported

    @signalapp Hi! I'm testing out the signal app. I have 1 issue and 1 question. Question first, I have installed the app on my Win10 desktop and see this message "Error to handle incoming message". What is that and how to fix it?

  • bloody_scandal Bloody Scandal (@bloody_scandal) reported

    @anonfbi @elonmusk @signalapp Is it? Oh. Maybe not an issue if it’s well-written code and uses the JIT. Really ought to be written in a compiled language like C++.

  • Goldmaster Goldmaster (@Goldmaster) reported

    @signalapp the only slight thing to fix is where the send button and message text input at the bottom, should follow the wallpaper.

  • PicuPiee Fadli Kurniawan (@PicuPiee) reported

    @RaushanRamanKr1 @signalapp @GerardCayo no one force to, but 3$ isn't that much to donate. why bother ask them to lower the default amount ? just use it without donating would help you do your business without hassle or being force to "donate". only generous people would donate without asking to lower the min amount

  • MathPiPsi MathPi (@MathPiPsi) reported

    @signalapp both my parents are having problems with getting video call notifications (audio call has notifications). One has android and the other iPhone. Same issue for both. In their settings all notifications are enabled. Any thoughts Signal Team? TIA

  • SirDavidV David VV (@SirDavidV) reported

    @signalapp I am testing the app. I love the philosophy and I sure hope this will replace EVERYTHING else. I just hope you fix the UI. See the amount of information @telegram shows in one screen compared to Signal, both on iOS and Mac. Please optimize screen use! Too much air!

  • sn0int sn0int (@sn0int) reported

    yo @signalapp! I have a trivial one-line patch to fix a bug that's currently preventing independent verification of the signal-desktop package in Arch Linux, but your CLA is asking for my legal name and address, which I don't want to provide. What should I do? cc: @ReproBuilds

  • SirDavidV David VV (@SirDavidV) reported

    @signalapp Fix the UI it is terrible. It is choppy and it uses display space terribly. You have to scroll too much. I can’t use this app if I litteraly suffer using it

  • sakzai Zai (@sakzai) reported

    @nixcraft @signalapp I would like to move to other platforms but the problem is like Facebook: every other people that I meet is on WhatsApp

  • iaamirdhillon Aamir Dhillon (@iaamirdhillon) reported

    @signalapp Call to others, not working

  • inazreimam Imam Nazre (نظرے امام) (@inazreimam) reported

    In next update, @signalapp should focus on late message sending issue and include option of OneDrive file selection.

  • ReubenCorvinus ℜ𝔢𝔲𝔟𝔢𝔫 🇮🇱 (@ReubenCorvinus) reported

    So I've signed up to the @signalapp. And have persuaded my ex-wife to sign up also, and now I'm trying to convince my Son to sign up also. Although my Son prefers to Call or SMS me, rather than use a messenger service.

  • JJha02726051 J Jha (@JJha02726051) reported

    @signalapp @moxie Tested these features. They're working well. But on calls to some devices like Mi A1 there's voice echo issue. Add this device to echo cancellation blacklist.

  • funkmastertal Tal (@funkmastertal) reported

    @signalapp If someone’s phone break/lose/stolen, there’s no way to retrieve Signal chats/groups/content. This is a major issue that will hold people from joining.

  • FardinnFahad Fardin Fahad 🇧🇩 (@FardinnFahad) reported

    @SozoGadaz @signalapp @signalapp please solve this issue

  • _chandler001 Dharm (@_chandler001) reported

    Hi @signalapp why I am unable to signup into the app. It is showing error "unfortunately, signal has stopped". Please resolve the issue.

  • gozoforever Wedge Antilles (@gozoforever) reported

    @signalapp I am running Signal version 5.2.1.3 in Germany & don‘t receive any messages from my contacts lately. Also I receive the message „chat session refreshed“ from one Android-contact. I have made „reset secure session“ on my ios device - but no change. Please help!

  • m1k4dze 🇺🇸m1k4dze🇪🇺 (@m1k4dze) reported

    Does anyone know if it’s a problem by @signalapp or by @Apple that Signal can access all my pictures via the profile picture option although only selected pictures are allowed in the iPhone’s privacy settings?

  • devidcillo davidcillo (@devidcillo) reported

    hey @signalapp is the download link to the Desktop app broken? I can't seem to download it :( Incidentally, no more whatsapp for me #UseSignal
