@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.

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

Video call quality on @signalapp is definitely much better than it used to be. Just had a 1.5 hour call with no sync issues, no jutter, no drops.

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.

@signalapp help. iPhone 12 Pro, can’t open images, can’t read messages on groups, already uninstalled and reinstalled. Latest version.

@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.

@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

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.

But as such and by extension, I must have some level of trust in a person or team to *help* maintain a level of #privacy I'm prepared to accept. Trust isn't necessarily a bad thing. Blind & misplaced trust however, is. Now register with @signalapp :)

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

@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!

Anybody else having problems with @signalapp ? It’s just crashed so hard that my phone panic-rebooted three times in a row, and now the desktop app can’t keep up with my typing speed.

@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.

@vagabondvivant No! This is abuse Apple let loose. Stop using text messages. @signalapp is better than broken texting and works on iOS and Android.

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

@kirkkkkk4 This is a problem Apple inflicted on the world. Use @signalapp on your phone where messages are encrypted no matter which phone you bought and reactions are an actual supported feature. Also, @signalstickers can be fun.

@buschtoens @signalapp The problem with signal I see is UX is way inferior, and there could be some form of bigotry in its management. Best is to go against the network effects, however difficult it might be, half of my friends are on Telegram, so it’s manageable.

@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.

Hi @signalapp hope you all had a nice Christmas. I’ve swapped phones and tried to transfer my chats across but made a terrible mess of it. Think I might have lost everything. Can you help please?
