@signalapp all of a sudden, messages do not pop up on my iPhone anymore. It only shows if I open the app. All notifications will flush out immediately. Don’t want to reinstall my app cause I’ll lose all history. Please send help!

@signalapp I'm having an issue that I can't find on Google. My messages are getting instantaneous (and false) reactions from others in the group. Install and reinstall helped for a few days but now it's back.

@RonColeman @signalapp Basically "can the FBI get past a phone lock screen"? Not really a Signal vulnerability. Everything is encrypted when the phone starts up, but after 1st login some stuff is unencrypted & if U can get past the lock screen you can interact with the decide as if you were the owner.

@signalapp hey guys... I think your app is down in India. Not sure, but it isn't working for me and my friends.

@paulandrieux I will potentially need it for video creation (nothing fancy), @signalapp, my bank accounts, Steam login, and guitar string tuner, at least that, among other smartphones capabilities

@jobohomeskillet @MattMetcalf Apple chooses to promote tribalism and violence against the people without iPhones. They have every opportunity to fix this, but won't. Use @signalapp and ignore text messages as they are broken anyway. Apple only made the situation worse.

@abby12saun What excuse do they give for not using @signalapp? Text messages are incredibly broken and Apple managed to make it worse.

@signalapp If someone stops using your app, how do we change it so they can read our texts again? A friend dropped Signal, and when I text her it's still showing locked, so she can't read it. I can read her unlocked texts to me, though. Help!

@amiracle_z Does the boss not care about security? Using text messages is a terrible idea. Everyone should use @signalapp where reactions are an actual thing and secure messages don't depend on which device you purchased.

Hey @signalapp, I am in a group of 40 students. How can I #hide my number? Please help. I do not want others to call me.

First world problem but I wish people would dump @WhatsApp because it has such rubbish encryption and doesn’t work on an @Apple iPad. @signalapp is so much better.

@Soulfight2424 Reactions and security work for Android and iOS when you all use @signalapp instead of broken texting.
