I finally donated to @signalapp today. They've provided a high quality service I've relied on for years. I'm sorry it took so long :( Thanks for being reliable, secure, and good.

@signalapp Will there be functionality to set a default chat background color? Your current system of changing colors is incredibly inaccessible for people with vision issues. Manually changing every contacts chat background color seems like a very unnecessary way of going about.

@signalapp Voice and video calling is very bad, sound echoes, image freezes, do you think to fix it?

@signalapp Uninstalled it after 3 months today only because getting critical verification codes was always a big issue with Signal. For one transaction I didn't get the verification code even after 5 attempts. That was the final straw. Otherwise loved the app.

I have written to you multiple times re iOS accessibility being broken with voiceover with 0 response. How/who can I contact? Many blind/low vision users rely on your amazing app. Thank you. @signalapp

@Experdiza @btwImAli @signalapp Huh 🤔 I wonder why? I have definitely been using it. Recently texted my IT guy and and he replied on signal. My only issue is I can’t seem to search in my string on my iPhone? No little dots in my right corner??

@TrialByTruth The source document says service providers are “obliged” but it’s not “mandatory” E2E encrypted messaging apps surely have nothing to worry about? Specially those built in the US, which they all pretty much are aka @signalapp

@punkt @signalapp @moxie If you are doubling down on texting, please add non-English characters. Thąnk yoū!

Still, it's not a crazy idea and could serve a niche. Currently, the @signalapp is on iOS and Android, but we've seen apps taken down in the past. Or we've seen encrypted apps like Whatsapp get its security threatened by its parent company. This would eliminate that possibility.

@signalapp You guys are messing up with glitches. You can have a multi billion dollar product but nobody can trust you. It never works properly. This will be garbage over minor issues. Phone is ringing but can't tell who is calling me via Signal. Just Uninstalled and will reins

Tried everything to get my @signalapp notifications working again. Reinstall finally fixed it. Problem started after last Android 11 update (~03/05). Google Pixel 4a.

@signalapp Can't seem to send or receive any media over the last week. No images, gifs, anything. Can't even see the images in gallery to choose what to send. Also can't view gifs received on Signal. Is this a known issue for Android phones? Thanks.

@whatsabschalten @signalapp And to answer your queries, yes I did try to use Signal and make it as my primary chat app by bringing in my friends/ people I text quite frequently on WhatsApp but the #NetworkEffect as we know has umpteen moving parts which makes it hard to fix!

@signalapp Hey guys, when I have the chat group open and people send their text I still get the notification sound even though I have the group chat open, is there a way to fix that?

@signalapp Bump again! @signalapp why are you silent on the issue? Are u going to give up privacy? If so let us know soon because we gotta uninstall ur app and I feel bad that I donated to your cause, u aren't even ready to address a real issue #Signal #privacynotincluded
