Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • sd_gouseferoz Gouse Feroz Syed (@sd_gouseferoz) reported

    @signalapp new contacts who have been added to the signal are directly visible in the chats window. It is causing the active people whom we chat go down and requires a scroll to get to them which is more troublesome as more of my contacts are being added to signal Please fix this

  • tcely Chris Ely 🧢⚛☢️😷 | #RemoveTrump (@tcely) reported

    @andrea_moro @signalapp I'm also seeing a problem sending SMS, if this is what you mean.

  • IrvineWelsh Irvine Welsh (@IrvineWelsh) reported

    @shamone_mfk @TheCarltonLeach @signalapp So the key issue is how hackable is it?

  • tcely Chris Ely 🧢⚛☢️😷 | #RemoveTrump (@tcely) reported

    Hey @signalapp, Is anyone else having problems sending SMS messages? Is it just me?

  • GrahamJCampbell Graham Campbell (@GrahamJCampbell) reported

    @raco_vincenzo @signalapp @telegram Telegram chats aren't even encrypted by default. Telegram is also a "for profit" company, and could sell out to a tech giant later down the line. CBA with moving around messengers again in a few years. I am confident in Signal's future.

  • KASHCoach 🇺🇲 Gabe Avalos (@KASHCoach) reported

    @signalapp My outgoing number is not a correct number when using the service. How can you fix it? My profile is correct and the advanced "signal messages and calls number" is also correct, but my friends are telling me my number is showing something different.

  • Ak23301771 Ak (@Ak23301771) reported

    @signalapp No problem we will wait we nee a status option also on next update kindly do the needful

  • tcely Chris Ely 🧢⚛☢️😷 | #RemoveTrump (@tcely) reported

    @andrea_moro @signalapp Ok. I did the SMS import long ago, and it worked so that's not a similar issue.

  • cdesteel Joey Steel (@cdesteel) reported

    @yashalevine @torproject @signalapp yasha I just do not understand your approach to this stuff. I can't really blame anyone for not wanting to keep getting quote tweeted by you when you don't want to discuss the errors in your reasoning but just to suggest they're cia or they're fascists for any disagreement

  • TheElijahLewis Elijah Lewis (@TheElijahLewis) reported

    @signalapp I'm researching developing an sms service, if i wanted to offer the option to send sms from a Signal account (when specified) to many signal accounts, is there anything in tos or what you would allow that would prevent this? Thank you!

  • xvlchgfq erik (@xvlchgfq) reported

    @LoneWol52659406 @blackdwarf97 @signalapp The problem here is: You are the troll – and I fed you. Sorry for that.

  • CesarCh78057698 Cesar Chavez (@CesarCh78057698) reported

    @signalapp Just an FYI people stay on Facebook because it doesn't go down. You might have lost anyone that was possibly looking to utilize your app.

  • tante tante (@tante) reported

    @Nivatius @yashalevine @signalapp Appelbaum was a big issue, but I don't generally care much for Tor. Due to its funding and the way it wrongfully presents itself.

  • nanotechbot John "BRUNCH IS STILL CANCELLED" Antifa 🌹 (@nanotechbot) reported

    @squirrelly1357 @signalapp @MarkDiStef God forbid a tiny non-profit offering a free service has an occasional issue with massive surge growth... Hell, O365 has on average 10 days of outage a year.

  • AssaultKing Assault King (@AssaultKing) reported

    @signalapp signal is down again?

  • apostleofzion Arvind Kumar (@apostleofzion) reported

    @sanchitajha still having that issue? @signalapp had some downtime after the many joined it. now it should be fine.

  • quitemytempo 🍔🧢✌🏽💙 (@quitemytempo) reported

    @rucci_harucci @signalapp If you haven’t already, you should mention signal is a non profit organization so they have no incentive to make money out of their users. Their only goal is provide a secure service. If they were to change then they’d go against their existence.

  • grifftss M. A. "Griff" Griffith aka ChoppaDoc (@grifftss) reported

    @janvlug @signalapp @littletinyfish That option doesn't even appear in that drop-down, I had checked prior to inquiring

  • _Antisthenes_ Antisthenes (@_Antisthenes_) reported

    @signalapp My signal nd others I know are still not working

  • DhaneshGovindan Dhanesh Govindan (@DhaneshGovindan) reported

    @signalapp Notifications are not working even after following the steps provided by you. Please help in fixing the issue.

  • KiefofPolice Jordan Winn (@KiefofPolice) reported

    @ederude @Cyb3rGh @signalapp Amen.I'd much rather keep Signal like it is. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. All the years I've been using It for end to end text /call encryption it's served me well. We don't need another social media tik-tok/IG bullshit.If you want unicorn filters and storytime go back to IG

  • djpronghorn djpronghorn (@djpronghorn) reported

    @elonmusk Help @signalapp get more servers and I shall use the app

  • cyberpunk1410 cyberpunk1410 (@cyberpunk1410) reported

    Update: The last 2 hours got a lot of messages delivered...situation seems to get better...but the service is not yet at 100%. @signalapp keep going 👏👍. #signaldown

  • MacinnisLaurie LMac (@MacinnisLaurie) reported

    @lightbody @DuckDuckGo @signalapp I think you’re mistaken to think you have any more privacy on another platform. If you’re not posting violence or conspiracy theories, you shouldn’t have any issues on any number of social platforms.

  • dannymcg Danny McGuinness (@dannymcg) reported from Walthamstow, England

    Now that a lot of people are joining @telegram and @signalapp. How long before we realise that using WhatsApp for communicating with colleagues in the NHS is a terrible idea?

  • VoxelLoop Curtis English (@VoxelLoop) reported

    @enscand @elonmusk @signalapp I can't say I've noticed the same issue though, but I also don't have any monitoring for that network it's on either. The car doesn't 'seem' to be awake, it barely ever responds to the app in less than 2 minutes, and it only has 1 or 2% less battery when I check again!

  • TheOnlyJavy TheOnlyJavy (@TheOnlyJavy) reported

    @signalapp Still not working for me. Messages are not being delivered or received. 😭

  • SURENDERAIREDDY Surender Aireddy (@SURENDERAIREDDY) reported

    @signalapp I am getting chat session refresh messages ever few minutes from group members. What is the issue?

  • crazypostman crazypostman (@crazypostman) reported

    @signalapp I listened to what @elonmusk said about downloading signal. But now I don't get my text messages on my @Tesla screen anymore? Can y'all work out this compatibility issue?

  • proraas Anti-All-Godi-Media 🇮🇳 (@proraas) reported

    @signalapp How do you wake up people who are pretending to be sleeping on this privacy issue?
