Signal Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • silverfoxdoc Ollie (@silverfoxdoc) reported

    @SignalMessenger @signalapp unfortunately latest update v5.17.2 seems to have broken syncing of contacts and chats on macOS desktop app. Anyone looking into this?

  • jaredzimmerman Jared Zimmerman (@jaredzimmerman) reported

    @signalapp github issue was closed, no plans to ever allow the android app to run on ChromeOS?

  • MaikMuellerArt 𝙈𝙖𝙞𝙠 𝙈𝙪𝙚𝙡𝙡𝙚𝙧 ᵃʳᵗ (@MaikMuellerArt) reported

    Hey @signalapp, why can't you, like other messengers, prevent your app from falling asleep (and not notifying about messages) on various android devices? This is seriously the only messenger I had to fix battery settings on friend's phones manually to keep it working normally.

  • satrinity402 Satrinity ✝️ (@satrinity402) reported

    .@signalapp took a backup on v5.22.8 of the Android app, and tried migrating to a new phone with backup file and recovery code, and I'm getting a "can't recover backup from a newer version of Signal" error Both were updated to the latest version (no beta) Any advice?

  • yvonnalynn Yvonna Lynn (@yvonnalynn) reported

    @signalapp PLS help. I want to manually add only 2 ppl to my Signal. I do NOT want to give signal access to my 5k contacts. I want ONLY 2 people. How can I do that on my iPhone 12pro plus? #peaceofmindpls

  • springinfrance resta_con_me🍋 (@springinfrance) reported

    @signalapp someone in my household stopped being able to send msgs to me. we use the same wifi and have updated our apps. any way to fix this? restarting the phone didn't work. the msgs are perpetually on sending (1 dotted circle)

  • PaxCaeIi Pax🌹 (@PaxCaeIi) reported

    @TrigoBruno @telegram @signalapp I do not see the point of downgrading to a worse service

  • MityMo786 Caramelo #StaySafe (@MityMo786) reported

    @signalapp notifications and messages not coming through after #iOS15 upgrade. Messages only come through after opening the app. Missing calls and messages. Bug? How to fix? Or should we go back to @WhatsApp ?

  • RealSexyCyborg Naomi Wu 机械妖姬 (@RealSexyCyborg) reported

    @lizthegrey Good on them for taking the issue seriously, better than the **** @signalapp pulled.

  • encthenet John-Mark Gurney 🗑️🔥 (@encthenet) reported

    I have no clue what solved it, if it was the new signal-cli that I installed, or reregistering my phone. This is the problem that even @signalapp is centralized for it's directory service, and can DoS users, by doing things like unregistering users and the like.

  • abhijeet_ghosh Abhijeet Ghosh (@abhijeet_ghosh) reported

    @signalapp has stopped receiving messages or calls in the background. Only when I open the app, I get the messages and missed call notifications. Please fix this issue, as this has made Signal virtually useless. It seems to have started after the latest app update or iOS 15.

  • alzalam_11 alzalam (@alzalam_11) reported

    @oemmeltier @vieuxrenard @signalapp I deleted Signal because of the existing problems and used Pinngle

  • vieuxrenard Ulf Buermeyer (@vieuxrenard) reported

    @whatsabschalten @signalapp @mdlinington I figure that's no news for her, but yeah, there appears to be a background refresh issue in Signal, probably related to iOS15. Ping me if you need more intel.

  • yvonnalynn Yvonna Lynn (@yvonnalynn) reported

    @signalapp You do NOT need access to my contacts! I want to manually add only 2 contacts (out of thousands). The 2 highly private people already know my phone number & try to send me messages but I can’t see them due to NEW “signal needs access to all your contacts”BS. Wtf? Help!

  • DurmusPinarci_9 Durmus Pinarci (@DurmusPinarci_9) reported

    @signalapp I think there's a bug which cause the chat not to auto scroll down when new messages are send or resieved. Have you guys noticed?
