    @signalapp Day 79: Iran's government silences its people by cutting off the internet. Without connection, voices are extinguished. You have the power to help amplify them. Please, use your influence to stand with us. #DigitalBlackOutIran #IranRevolution2026

    @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

    @signalapp Why should I use your service instead of WhatsApp?

  • XBMXYW
    青い夜の記憶 (@XBMXYW) reported

    @signalapp When will Google and Apple's passkey login be supported? Both telegram and wechat next door have been supported, and it comes from the loyal appeal of an advanced user who supports signal software development every month.

    @signalapp Every time I open a specific chat the whole app hangs and crashes. Any word on a fix? #SignalBug #AppCrash

    @signalapp Please a proxy to be able to login

    @signalapp Has the quality improved too? I video call regularly & quality is v. ordinary. Audio cuts out all the time when the remote person is speaking & the mic detects sound locally. Switching to FaceTime is like going from SD to HD, & no sound issues.

    @signalapp Is it just to remain connected while 80 million Iranians are silenced? Please help them, however you can. #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran

    @signalapp Phishing exploits human error, not encryption. Always safeguard your PINs and codes, and use secure, privacy-first messaging tools to stay protected.

    Whatsapp disappearing messages has been around since so long and still they can’t fix this issue since starting. Never encountered such irritating issues with @signalapp even though they have less resources because of being a non profit organisation. @WhatsApp @Meta Are you just lazy or such issues aren’t your priority? I seriously don’t want to doubt your abilities.

    @signalapp Signal is not opening in Nigeria, even the verification code is not working

  • KelpalotsNet
    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.

    @nyakojiru @mer__edith @signalapp 6. **Mandatory IP protection**: Built-in Tor (or equivalent) for every connection, non-disableable. This would severely degrade the service. Just use a VPN.

    @cb_doge - X owns your keys - no forward secrecy - UX is terrible How about you use a properly secure app - @signalapp

  • kassandraETH

    i think @signalapp is/was down for a bit?

  • 0to80Eventually
    Not here, nor there! (@0to80Eventually) reported

    @signalapp Terrible time to associate your great app with Bill Gate's Microsoft.

  • RUL_FE

    @signalapp Please fix the group bug. After I remove some accounts that have already been deactivated from the group, the group member count does not change and does not reflect the actual number of members.

  • CarmineSabia

    Apparently @signalapp is down.

    @kanavtwt Problem is not with @signalapp. They just seem to be caught in the OS cross-fire.

    @signalapp @404mediaco And what have you done to fix careless whisper? @signalapp

  • StatsMaxer
    Maximus Curious (@StatsMaxer) reported

    @theonejvo @signalapp credential stuffing wins when scale exceeds patch speed. hundreds exposed in 24h means the cost to harden is now baked into real ops. signalapps free tier model inverts incentives. they won't fix until shutdown forces it.

    @signalapp If the infrastructure and encryption of Signal remain uncompromised, then this is a social engineering problem, not a platform breach. User awareness is the real defense here.

  • psu_chris
    who is john galt? (@psu_chris) reported

    anyone else have the issue when i get a @xai post from a @signalapp chat.. it NEVER opens the link INSIDE X but loads it up in a web browser on the iphone? frustrating!!! links for youtube work.. so why not X?

  • BrendanEich

    @marchofer @signalapp Not so fast. There's a Signal issue here.

  • FiveEyeTea
    Jacob | Five Eye Tea (@FiveEyeTea) reported

    @alcipone @signalapp @NicoleGrajewski I'm curious what makes you "say hmm" about it? This story here is virtually identical to every other case of an alleged "Signal hack": it always boils down to user error or an unsafe modification of the code (as was the case with the previous government-related "Signal hack").

  • cryptoguideen
    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.

    @signalapp Customer service is lacking, I paid for a service and have not been able to get it resolved with @signalapp they have not responded to multiple attempts to contacted them. Updated logs, and have newest software but there system does not let me talk to a real person

    @SIGNAL_RETURN Why doesn’t @signalapp launch an email service?

    The issue here, isn't marketshare, like in the case of WhatsApp vs @signalapp
