As much as I love @signalapp, they really need to fix their desktop app. A lot of time it just doesn’t load itself or doesn’t load the messages correctly. Hoping they sort it out soon.

1000+ Group member, @signalapp I think large the group is leads misuse of app like fb and other other service. None talks to not more than 50 or 100 members in year through messages whom share their personal or work phone number with.

@signalapp this change is terrible, please consider rolling back. Why would you make a UX change that creates so much more difficulty identifying who is talking.

@mikeyil @signalapp Signal is the least secure messaging app except for all of the others. But yes, in all seriousness they really should stop broadcasting when people sign up, you're not the first person to mention this problem.

Just checked on @signalapp and there are exactly ZERO investors listed in Austin investing in #digitalhealth. This is either an error or a huge opportunity.

@signalapp You have completely ruined Signal with this new color update. It is a terrible UI and I hope to find a different communication app. It makes threads with multiple people completely unusable. It also makes my personal threads far less readable.

@signalapp Please fix recording issues. We are group of truckers and we switched from whatsapp to @signalapp. We use voice recordings instead of typing. On whatsapp we can record with our Bluetooth headsets and in signal it doesn't work. Can you plz bring an update. Also bring status option

Feature suggestions for @signalapp @moxie. If a message is undelivered for over two weeks, send a generic SMS to the recipient telling them. It’s probably due to them uninstall the app or some other technical issue.

@signalapp Any plans to fix the user interface changes debacle? Maybe a user selection option to not make every conversation color a grey mess? Thanks!

@djchateau @signalapp The primary issue was just notifying users- like you do when you tell them to use a complex password. The refused for over a year. Now Signal is blocked in China so there's not much problem.

@signalapp is there a way to reverse this color change? Like why after years of having the received bubbles colored would you just switch? Plus now group chat members are harder to distinguish from one another. This seems intentionally confusing. Help?

@signalapp I noticed even when the "seen" option is turned off, if I'm watching the chat I can see when someone has read the messages. the chat shifts slightly when it happens. you might wanna fix it because it defeats the whole purpose of having it off

@signalapp Is anyone knowing a lot about apps here? Could this work? To fix the problems with Android @Signalapp notifications they could create a mechanism to keep the app awake sending a code to a server every 10mins. It will fix battery optimisations apps. Am I right?
