    Use Signal and you will never have to worry about your phone being tapped again. I don’t see the issue. @signalapp

  • nmnhuis ❤️ het gaat goedkomen! WEF gaat inpakken !!! (@nmnhuis) reported

    @signalapp @mer__edith Just an idea, how about if you guys would fix a way for us to communicate not via phone number but via a code, I for sure would want that and would pay for it just like people pay for the Threema app.

  • PeterASilva1 Peter A Silva (@PeterASilva1) reported

    @twinfolktech @signalapp I have a friend who works for meta and he is a experience cyber security worker in terms of hacked, locked, banned, suspended account try him #Coder_cybertech44 on Instagram he can help you retrieve back your account within few minutes

  • neurovagrant Ian Campbell (@neurovagrant) reported

    @drentsoftmedia @signalapp Defender throwing this alert for lots of electron apps right now, not a Signal issue (fwiw i am unaffiliated with Signal)

  • derekmorr Derek Morr (@derekmorr) reported

    @Eterno48849335 @signalapp @mer__edith Why? How does asking people to voluntarily donate pose a problem?

  • italoceco Aaron (@italoceco) reported

    @paravertudo @signalapp Thats mostly an Android problem. Check your battery saving options for the apps and make sure Android is not killing Signal in background. :)

  • mueenulit Mueenul Islam Talha (@mueenulit) reported

    @mer__edith @signalapp Request: Help us to get rid of Signal’s reliance on SGX

  • Seliene_ Seliene (@Seliene_) reported

    @backdoorcreep @mer__edith @signalapp No, Signal wasn’t hacked it was an external service company Signal uses for verification.

  • KBliek KrisBliek (@KBliek) reported

    @signalapp After last Android from 1st of August, I can't use Signal anymore, are there more Android users who have the problem? I have a Nokia 7.2 #signalapp

  • baryb819 barry (@baryb819) reported

    @signalapp hello????? please can you help?

  • SavvyOwl Nacor 🇺🇦 (@SavvyOwl) reported

    @PuppeteerSock @signalapp @mer__edith If everything remains end-to-end encrypted and open source as it is now, there should be no problem.

  • mopleen Alex Mopleen (@mopleen) reported

    @signalapp Both iPhones on latest iOS and Signal. One sends super high quality photos and videos. The other compresses heavily. "Sent Media Quality" set to High. Please help?

  • afhaines86 Andrew Haines (@afhaines86) reported

    @signalapp @twilio Cybersecurity. Unfortunately one of least appreciated/underinvested tech areas. Would you drive a car without a steering wheel? With expanding threat surfaces and a vibrant global ransomware industry, more boards should acknowledge this as a critical corporate governance issue.

  • bangaradagundu ಸಂದೀಪ ಮೌದ್ಗಲ್ಯ | 🇮🇳 (@bangaradagundu) reported

    @signalapp is down.

  • Prodonathan Prodo 🇿🇦 (@Prodonathan) reported

    @tveastman @signalapp It's for private messaging service Not anonymous

  • SpencerHudsonSF Spencer Hudson (@SpencerHudsonSF) reported

    @mer__edith @samuraiemily Why does @signalapp have a "Contact us" webform for users to get help with technical issues if no one bothers to reply?

  • djcontrebass Taylor Riley (@djcontrebass) reported from San Antonio, Texas

    @MABrownJr @lockheimer @signalapp The elitism from certain sets of iPhone users certainly does not help.

  • BenjaminJonesTw Benjamin Jones (@BenjaminJonesTw) reported

    Pretty disappointed with @signalapp message delays lately.. a lot of missed communication coming in sometimes 10s of minutes late.. is this a known issue?

  • StevenPersson Steven Persson (@StevenPersson) reported

    @PlatKlimGo @telegram @signalapp No, Signal did not have a data leak. It was Twilio, a service that provided phone numbers for users to sign up to Signal that had the leak. Signal was not breached of any data whatsoever.

  • KantadoAaveChe ખુબજ કંટાળો આવેછે (@KantadoAaveChe) reported

    @signalapp are there any issues currently? Seems very slow in sending msgs.

  • dreamer_sharad sharad (@dreamer_sharad) reported

    @bsng_s @signalapp Agreed! Tried many time.. always some issue.

  • ricfink Ric Fink (@ricfink) reported

    .@signalapp @mer__edith No, paying or this app will be a fine way to draw usage down so that it will ultimately be bought by AOL... if you know what I mean. You're going to have to think wider and understand how backwards is never forwards, and that customers/users know that.

  • LRaviKumarSingh RK (@LRaviKumarSingh) reported

    1/2 @signalapp Question: I resintall signal App on a new iphone (old one has space issue ) , all my deleted pics videos and chats are also restored, how come ? When it were deleted using delete button and then using the disappear feature everything is back and that’s very scary

  • Tweetistan_PK Tweetistan (@Tweetistan_PK) reported

    Hi @WhatsApp, Pakistan Government is allegedly able to record whatsapp converstaions, We would like to know if that is true? Is your app's security is compromised? If this issue is not addressed we are going to switch on @signalapp

  • mHaGqnOACyFm0h5 nothingmuch (@mHaGqnOACyFm0h5) reported

    @signalapp transfer feature seems really flakey. first wifi direct was barely usable, had to forget wifi network. why use that if on same LAN? then transfer kept failing because out of storage on old phone, but no useful error message was provided, had to guess.

  • davidguitard David Guitard (@davidguitard) reported

    @signalapp @mer__edith I am use Telegram and good speed server. Let forget about WhatsApp and Backup Cloud. I know Signal is very encrypt for MobileCoin. I still use Telegram TON (Telegram Open Network) pretty speed. I wish Signal fix the performance issue.

  • lywyn Darren (@lywyn) reported

    @signalapp @Mer_Edith Maybe they will get Signal back to building a private messaging service and not a shill app for cryptocurrency that benefits the developers? Happy to donate once you get back on track.

  • webRat Todd Rafferty (@webRat) reported

    @blainsmith @bdowns328 @signalapp They are using a service, just respond "stop" and you'll unsubscribe. You will have to block the numbers. My Pixel 6 already flags these as spam before I even see them.

    @signalapp @mer__edith Maybe they will get Signal back to building a private messaging service and not a shill app for cryptocurrency that benefits the developers? Happy to donate once you get back on track. DELETING TWEETS NOW?

  • jb33z TheWeekdy (@jb33z) reported

    If you use iMessage on your iPhone and are sick of those green bubbles, encourage your SMS/MMS only contacts to install @signalapp , its an amazing alternative, and handles "group texts" way better. MMS: Here's an 40mp photo we've cut down to geocities quality.... enough already
