@signalapp Terrible decision. Not needing multiple apps was a great feature, now I have no reason to recommend signal over any other secure messaging app.

@signalapp And these will keep dwindling until you return SMS functionality. Look at the rating in the app store already tracking down...

@signalapp Why not just turn off SMS by default? This solves many of the issues you raise concerning "accidental" SMS usage within your app. And I think some simple design changes could have been made to make it more obvious when messages were not sent securely. Bad decision!

@signalapp reason one you give for removing SMS support is weak at best if it will reduce uptake. Quit blaming the user and fix your UI. Reasons 2 & 3 are the same reason & same as 1. Design your UI in way that prevents these mouth breathers from making these mistakes. 3/?

@WesleyTech @signalapp Just checked again and no, for better or worse, I assume iOS locks down the apis to access messages.

@signalapp fix sharing screenshots after the latest Ios update. Tapping 4 times sucks. Only with screenshots.😬

@signalapp I replaced my broken phone with a new one & I'm trying to register it. First, it wouldn't send the 2FA codes, then it locked me out for too many attempts, then it sent all the codes at once while I was locked out, and now it says I tried too many times. HELP ME! Arggh!

I love the idea of @session_app, open-source, decentralized and E2E, but in my experience messages take too long to arrive. It also inherits some usability issues from @signalapp, like why can't I easily share a picture to other apps? Why do I need to save it first?

@venkatamutyala @signalapp Lame. No wonder my iOS friends always had trouble seeing Signal messages

@04b11dk @torproject @signalapp The issue I've seen in the past is that people can take screen shots and share them, or those screen shots can be found on a phone, or cops can access your phone and see your signal chats. None of it is failproof. Any extra spicy stuff needs to be in person away from any phones.

@Jd_Rummer @signalapp They reached out to me to solicit a donation once they added scheduled texts, which I'd been asking for for a long time. I donated and made the move to finally start using it as my default messenger now that I could schedule... and realized SMS support has been shut down.

@ugkfkdnel @KodyKinzie @signalapp I understand people are upset.I truly don't care because it's not my problem.Signal is doing what they believe is best for them and pushing forward with their vision for their company.For android I recommend Google Messages.There are others but they're mehh
