    @vonderburchard @signalapp Yes but the truth is they are stupid, at least reading and having a little education about privacy can save you from these problems but ignorance is something that kills humanity

    @topicswithatee @signalapp Stop giving kids smart phones Problem solved It’s on the lazy *** parents

    @yegortk @signalapp No it's a simple problem we want privacy

    @KELECHUKWU_OTF @eazytvmedia The only problem with it is that it feels too casual. People don't use it for Professional Groups. I want to mention @signalapp here. People should really consider it, over WhatsApp.

    @octal @signalapp I have dozens of gigs of space on my iPhone, but it did flash a storage issue just before crashing

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

    first, messages aren't e2e encrypted. secondly, reduces the quality of pics/ videos being sent or uploaded on status. there’s a reason those contacts are not saved to my phone fgs, @WhatsApp fix up. a dumb update tbh, it’s high time to pivot to @signalapp

    @signalapp In 1988, Iranians were silenced by guns. In 2022, by blackout. In 2025, will you help them be heard? #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran

    @Shahinlooo Families in Iran cannot even confirm whether their loved ones are safe. This blackout is dangerous. Please help. @Meta @Signalapp #IranMassacre #DigitalBlackoutIran #KingRezaPahlavi

    @bramh0sWali People can literally just use @signalapp instead. This is an idiotic ban for starters. Instead of fixing the problem they're just shooting the Messenger, literally.

    @signalapp Signal backup change is terrible UX. Thousands of small files instead of one backup = extremely slow transfers. 10GB taking 24+ hours to copy. Faster backup creation but unusable for migration. Please fix this or restore single-file backups.

    @signalapp @404mediaco lowkey wild that it took a leak for this fix

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

  • VijjaHolder

    @TheDesertLynx @signalapp The problem is that in order to use Signal you need to make use of their servers.

    @signalapp please fix it!

  • iMrHammad

    @PTAofficialpk what is the issue? Why I can't receive OTP for @signalapp app? Why google rcs is not working in Pakistan? Are these things banned from PTA?

    @topicswithatee @signalapp It has nothing to do with the kids as a parent i dont wont any govt thinking they can do better. Have to be lazy as **** useless trash if want the govt nosing around pretending watching ur kids for you. Shuting down the kids ability to think for them selfs growing the sheep

    @signalapp I am writing to report a persistent issue with receiving the registration/verification SMS code in Iran.

  • ternaagor
    Joey Terna Agor (@ternaagor) reported

    @signalapp Why am I unable to complete the set up of Signal on my new Android OnePlus 15 phone? No promised verification code to my number ever comes. I deleted my Signal account on my iPhone 11 Pro Max, reinstalled Signal on my new phone all to no avail. Any help?

    @ShaneAKAProp @beverleyturner @signalapp Not my problem.

    @bdmurdock @signalapp It does. As a security guy, I don't mind a few seconds to secure. I have however seen people putting in a lot of effort to get round our controls at work, for ease of use. I'll always try and have a chat and see what the actual issue is, and if we can do something.

    @chrisfrazier0 @Bwazenbull @signalapp Holy ****. I saw some other guy say VPN doesn't help, same for you?

    Alan (@Alan79192519) reported

    @signalapp If they force you, pull your service from the uk - this will send a powerful message. I wish apple would do the same thing ie shut off all iPhones - it would make people wake up and apple can afford to

    @signalapp What if your family was silenced by a government? Iranians are being killed in the dark, unable to call for help. You have the power to help. Will you stand with them? #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran

    @akashtiwari1007 @signalapp yup, every time i give a visit to reliance to buy something, they straight up ask for phone number and i reject it. they do try to fear monger stating i will not be able to to get refund or exchange if things go wrong (they did this to me for vegetables, not kidding). the list is long. i stopped using swiggy and zomato long back (tried once or twice back in 2021 or something and never again). i know, some of the people may find it weird, old school, but hey, to me, it is fun that way. apps like tata neu, blinkit and etc., i have never used! i tried porter only twice, horrible service (see my old tweets if interested - they just lie on face).

    @signalapp Signal is letting Romanian scammers use my account to steal money off Irish people… I reported the issue to them over a month ago and the company refuses to look into it

    @signalapp @404mediaco Did they even show proof or can someone see if Apple did fix it or did they lie about the fix too

    @Dinosn Other apps have a similar problem. Signal leaks chats through task switcher even when locked. I reported it ages ago; no response from @signalapp

    @Krev2323 @signalapp They got exemptions for travel too - every time we got cases down someone would bring a new case in. With proper infection control alpha would have stayed in the UK, delta in India & omicron in African countries (S. Africa sequences unlike its neighbours)
