    @mehdiirandossst @signalapp And I wish we didn't need a phone number to register anymore. Then it would be rid the problem immediately. @moxie

  • m_arcopolo marco paşa (@m_arcopolo) reported

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

  • MoreThanDanny Danny Noonan Practising Sewer Rat (@MoreThanDanny) reported

    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

  • ThomasMizinduko Thomas Mizinduko (@ThomasMizinduko) reported

    @signalapp Hey guys there is one problem with your App ,since i have done update on it nowadays it appear at the top of my phone as if there is a new message but when i open there is no any new message .@signalapp correct this please .

  • CampingWeller Kevin Weller (@CampingWeller) reported

    @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.

  • arbakheet Abdulrahman Bakheet (@arbakheet) reported

    @signalapp Hi There, I’m not receiving the verification code for some reason, I went through your troubleshooting steps contacted my mobile carrier to allow 6 digit sms numbers and still no messages received, the automated calls are not working either

  • whatsabschalten 🇩🇪 WhatsAbschalten #TeamSignal (@whatsabschalten) reported

    @pranavom8 @signalapp The problem is already known. This always affects only your smartphone. Your contact sees the images correctly. Normally, the images are then also displayed correctly after you restart.

  • ReaLKanhaiyaSir कन्हैया विश्वकर्मा 🇮🇳 (@ReaLKanhaiyaSir) reported

    @whatsabschalten @signalapp Signal For Help was typo error. It was only about signalApp.

  • MENCEEEY MENCEY. (@MENCEEEY) reported

    Is anyone experiencing quality issues with photos / videos in the @signalapp in #iOS? Are there any adjustments I can make to enhance the quality when I send media?

  • cjpatton_ Christopher Patton (@cjpatton_) reported

    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.

  • pranavom8 pranavom (@pranavom8) reported

    @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

  • ScouseNotEnglsh ScouseNotEnglish (@ScouseNotEnglsh) reported

    @signalapp @support_signal Any issues with Signal app just not sending messages randomly with a spinning circle? @minxnicki does... Debug Log 5.4.12

  • moeseoud Mohamad Saoud (@moeseoud) reported

    @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?

  • ModernUtilities Modern Utilities - Las Vegas (@ModernUtilities) reported

    @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

  • ReaLKanhaiyaSir कन्हैया विश्वकर्मा 🇮🇳 (@ReaLKanhaiyaSir) reported

    @whatsabschalten @signalapp It's typo error.....

  • glenlivingston5 GLiv (@glenlivingston5) reported

    @signalapp are you having server problems right now?My GF iPhone keeps crashing everytime she opens the app. Airplane mode helps keep the app open but there seems to be a connectivity problem causing the crash. Please help if you can?They are trying to move their family chat over

  • ckswain9 Kumar (@ckswain9) reported

    @signalapp Two issues for you to fix. First name is split wrongly for some contacts. First Name “abc xyz” is shown as “abc” for some contacts. I have to edit it back “abc xyz”. second even if i edit .. it doesn’t update the contact name.

  • ItsTheRealKR ItsTheRealKR (@ItsTheRealKR) reported

    @signalapp Hi Signal, please fix these following things in your app! 1)When Video Calling or Voice Calling, I noticed the icons and their options are a little bugged - the speaker icon is in white and the speaker is automatically on. Please fix this.

  • secprentice Charlie Crane (@secprentice) reported

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

  • Tvarijonas Tomas Tvarijonas (@Tvarijonas) reported

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

  • saneashouses Wonko the Fahrvergnügen Haver Ⓐ (@saneashouses) reported

    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.

  • ShaswatJena Shaswat Jena (@ShaswatJena) reported

    @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!

  • tobiogunbadejo Tobi (@tobiogunbadejo) reported

    @jaydeemillz @signalapp Again I didn't miss anything, I shared the link sire, I read it first. All you're pointing out wasn't the focus. It's not to see tweet and feel triggered, calm down and don't assume whatver you think

  • whatsabschalten 🇩🇪 WhatsAbschalten #TeamSignal (@whatsabschalten) reported

    @mehdiirandossst @signalapp Why not? Whats your problem?

  • Apoorva_J Apoorva Joshi (@Apoorva_J) reported

    @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.

  • rickmanelius Rick Manelius (@rickmanelius) reported

    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.

  • AvinashPant Avinash Pant (@AvinashPant) reported

    @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.

  • JamieLeeMLynch Jamie (@JamieLeeMLynch) reported

    @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??

  • alirezaimi alireza (@alirezaimi) reported

    @signalapp can't get any sms or call for registration or login in iran :((

  • whatsabschalten 🇩🇪 WhatsAbschalten #TeamSignal (@whatsabschalten) reported

    @Soheil_rf @signalapp Yes, they hear you. And I hope that they will soon have an answer to your problems.
