Signal Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • CoreFloDev florent guillemot (@CoreFloDev) reported

    @signalapp can you please fix your Linux desktop client? It is now using 100% CPU and a bit of GPU time all the time since the update I got on Monday

  • ShahHossain Shah Hossain 🔭 (@ShahHossain) reported from Makkah al Mukarramah, Makkah Province

    Good bye @signalapp. I just kept you in my phone and never used you. Today I am deleting you. Looking forward you will get some help from @elonmusk again.

  • lost_button Zeus (@lost_button) reported

    So the only option is to block the person. I don't want to block the person. I just don't want to accidentally send them a message when I, you know, "accidentally" start missing them? @signalapp, please fix this!

  • mindofadam Thus spake Adam (@mindofadam) reported

    @LunchBoxCan @signalapp Wait until birthday to get gift card and buy prepaid number service on internet and use that to connect with signal

  • KyleStratis kylestratis.eth (send e-moneys) (@KyleStratis) reported

    @dabit3 @signalapp I don't interpret it as not knowing - they took advantage of a weakness in the ERC721 standard itself (although I wouldn't necessarily call it a weakness) to do something I thought was pretty neat. I find the Metamask linkage to OpenSea the real problem, their Chrome wallet needs

  • cschmatzler Christoph Schmatzler (@cschmatzler) reported

    @signalapp yo, typing indicators are broken and I'm crying here waiting for @Noodlknits to finally send the text she isn't even typing

  • cladinrad m.a.rish.ka ¯\_( ಠ ͜ʖಠ)_/¯✨ (@cladinrad) reported

    @signalapp Scanning a QR code to transfer data should not be the only method to transfer data on a phone. I'm extremely annoyed this is the only app giving me trouble when switching phones and knowing I will lose all my data because of this ridiculous inaccessible system.

  • ChinkeNathaniel BigfishNatty (@ChinkeNathaniel) reported

    @signalapp I have been trying to join signal for a while now but it’s not working out for me.

  • GwenaelNicolas Gwénaël Nicolas 💉 x2 (@GwenaelNicolas) reported

    Hello @signalapp, Why is your Windows app updated nearly everyday ?... Sine the last one, when I share my screen, I can't move the pop-up with the red button "stop sharing" anymore. So annoying cause it come just in front of my tool bar in @SketchUp ! Any help please ?

  • shusseina Steve (@shusseina) reported

    @signalapp Awesome app, however today I had an issue sending a link. A person I know had issues send content too, recently. Something to look into

  • aldira_1 aldira (@aldira_1) reported

    @tiwosatriatama @signalapp All options have been activated and the battery saving has been turned off and the problem is in the Signal program

  • royalaid Mark Aiken (@royalaid) reported

    @dabit3 @signalapp For a lot of NFT's this actually seems like a fair take BUT we have solutions right? IPFS should prevent URL rug pulls because it's content based URL. With crypto punks the whole thing is on chain so that solves the problem by being tiny. But for people just hosting them? 😬

  • wizardhat_ wizardhat.eth (@wizardhat_) reported

    just noticed signal has some clipping on their UI @signalapp fix this plz it's bothering me now

  • MisutaaUrufu 🏳️‍⚧️|ミスター・ウルフ|Misutā Urufu (@MisutaaUrufu) reported

    @Denise_Hyena @telegram @signalapp It is broken for new, however, that linking a non-Telegram & a Telegram contact together, in Contacts, breaks the telegram contact, causing Telegram to create a second contact.

  • dblumx David Blum (@dblumx) reported

    @signalapp do you have push issues?

  • ratracegrad ratracegrad.eth (@ratracegrad) reported

    @dabit3 @signalapp Did you help him out and explain how it works? Or did you just criticize somebody because he doesn't know web3?

  • westsideblogger Herr Ungewiss (@westsideblogger) reported

    @signalapp On the iPhone, the number of unread messages is no longer displayed in the icon. This has been the case since the last update. Can you confirm this, or is it just me who has this error?

  • thealgoritmo Algo Ritmo (@thealgoritmo) reported

    @xdadevelopers You sure? I can text with friends, no problem..oh wait, I forgot I use @signalapp

  • _neelc Neel Chauhan (@_neelc) reported

    @lattera @signalapp The problem with messaging apps is... they're apps, not networks. Messaging apps don't want to peer with others because it creates a network effect. History repeats itself: AT&T didn't peer with independent telcos in the early 1900s. Or the network effect of Apple's iMessage.

  • KyleStratis kylestratis.eth (send e-moneys) (@KyleStratis) reported

    @dabit3 @signalapp There was nothing toxic about what he said, if anything casting legitimate criticism of what the standard allows and Metamask's terrible NFT integration as 'toxic' is itself toxic. The average user isn't going to be aware of these pitfalls (and demonstrably is not), unbiased

  • unifiedh Daniel Hong 🏁☠️🚢 (@unifiedh) reported

    Web3 key management is just terrible holy crap, have NO ONE in crypto ever worked with modern PKI systems? Did anyone look into how @signalapp or @Apple iMessage does it, like ever? seems pretty straightforward to implement for me, seems like simply no one cares

  • oasisjosh oasisjosh  (@oasisjosh) reported

    @signalapp It’s frustrating that conversations keep scrolling up when you come back to them, and you have to hit the arrow to scroll to the end of the conversation again, please fix it.

  • Metamasksup7 MetaMask Wallet Officail Support (@Metamasksup7) reported

    @KyleStratis @dabit3 @signalapp Hello there! Sorry for the inconvenience, kindly send us a direct message stating your issue, beware of impersonators posing as support, we never DM first🚨

  • dtvp1 Данијел Тодоровић (@dtvp1) reported

    @signalapp Just when I started monthly donation do Signal. Not much, but neither I have much. Hm... Is @Wire better solution? I just can't get people using it. They lack presence in people's heads. Or... I don't know what. Had the same problem with much superior Skype over that time Viber

  • evarelac Enrique Varela Couceiro (@evarelac) reported

    Will continue with more details and problems of #Signal although I’d like to do it privately due to the tech languaje I would like to use. But haven’t got a way to contact with @signalapp development team.

  • muhamaushookar Muhammath Maushook (@muhamaushookar) reported

    Why Signal keeps firing fake notification without any notification? Anyone else having this problem? @signalapp

  • whatsabschalten 🇩🇪 WhatsAbschalten #TeamSignal (@whatsabschalten) reported

    @NickEfthimiou @signalapp Can you be a little more specific about your "disappointment"? Or best of all, provide the solution to the spam problem that you would like best? Millions of users were spammed and now that #SignalApp shows a solution everyone is crying. Nothing will change about e2e messaging.🙄

  • mattaningram Mattan Ingram (@mattaningram) reported

    @signalapp I can't get Signal to open on my new M1 Pro MacBook Pro. I get a "Signal crashed unexpectedly" error every time even after uninstalling and reinstalling. Worked fine on my M1 Air.

  • dabit3 nader dabit | sha.eth (@dabit3) reported

    @KyleStratis @signalapp 100%, agree with this point, I guess my main issue is with framing the entire argument because someone wrote some terrible smart contract code, it would be like me (a React person) claiming that Vue is a bad JS framework by pointing to someone's codebase who didn't know what

  • PlanetJunkie Planet Junkie (@PlanetJunkie) reported

    @signalapp are your servers down??
