Signal Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • jianjianus jianjian (@jianjianus) reported

    @signalapp Originated from the GFW bar of the CCP, captcha and domain ip blocking. As a Chinese, I haven't used the signal app for 3 years and you guys didn't provide a better solution. Now these communications are blocked due to Iranian issues, it's ridiculous!

  • ZarebinGraphic Ali Zarebin 🏴 (@ZarebinGraphic) reported

    @signalapp How about signup/login with email ? That would be deeply usefull for iranian people cause sms and call contains registration code is currently all blocked by gov ! Is it possible for signal team to manage that option ? #مهسا_امینی #اعتصابات_سراسری #OpIran

  • arshiaaaaaa_ ارشیا با (ع) (@arshiaaaaaa_) reported

    @signalapp We have problem receiving confirmation SMS for login, filter it.! Find a way please

  • robiahoo ahoo (@robiahoo) reported

    @signalapp There isn’t any problem fir installing Signel but the islamic republic blocked the verification sms

  • Cocoacoupons name cannot be blank (@Cocoacoupons) reported

    @signalapp can you add a feature to pin priority conversations? I receive text messages for doctor appointments that get pushed down from spam, day to day texts, and other appointments. This would be a life saver for someone who relies on SMS updates for Dr appointments

  • KonstantWeddige Konstantin Weddige (@KonstantWeddige) reported

    @PoorPourPore @signalapp @torproject Tor and Signal serve different purposes. They can complement, but not replace each other. Trying to play them against each other is quite stupid, if you want to help right now.

  • KarzanYousefi گاد بودن یا نبودن (@KarzanYousefi) reported

    @AnonOpsSE @signalapp Fix the internet Thankful

  • babylon_eth babylon.eth🦇🔊🔴 (@babylon_eth) reported

    @signalapp @msv_mahsa It will be better to adopt a mesh like long range bluetooth functionality. In times where governments shut down internet, users can relay messages until someone has internet.

  • inazkam نازلی کاموری (@inazkam) reported

    @signalapp Dear Signal, there is a major problem in Iran with the verification code that is sent by SMS. The authorities have blocked the SMS coming from Signal so Iranian users cannot get varified. Is there a way you can fix this?

  • Vatanem2 مهاجر بی وطن (@Vatanem2) reported

    @signalapp Thank you for thinking about the Iranian people. The problem is, the verification code doesn't come and the Internet is too weak. #مهسا_امینی #نه_به_جمهوري_اسلامي #OpIran

  • zanoga Maxim Zanoga (@zanoga) reported

    @signalapp Did you fix the problem with the proxy?

  • whistleNwork whistleNwork (@whistleNwork) reported

    @signalapp You guys should look in to making an Email service as well for the public.

  • Siamakf7 Xnonymous (@Siamakf7) reported

    @signalapp @YourAnonStory Downloading the app is easy part. The problem is we can't enter the app after entering the authorization code

  • AnandArtish Free ARTi (@AnandArtish) reported

    @signalapp We need email request to get signal app, like lantern. Play store, your website and the signal app are banned, and we need to access theme on new way. Provide download with email and proxy. Thanks in advance to help Iranian people.

  • mostafa_khaki mostafa khaki (@mostafa_khaki) reported

    @signalapp Another problem is registering, because we use Tor VPN, checking recaptcha is too long and finally don't receive verification code.

  • amirshakibapour Amir Shakibapour (@amirshakibapour) reported

    @signalapp We can receive login codes by sms or call when we are trying to create account or login Please put alternative ways such as sending our codes by email or telegram. #help us

  • Thisisuniqu mobina ahmadi (@Thisisuniqu) reported

    @signalapp Infact our problem is to regester the Signal in lran

  • EntenImInternet enten (@EntenImInternet) reported

    @Ididnotdoitok @behzadbeh @signalapp afaik this does not fix the registration issues, it just helps getting the app in the first place

  • MishiChoudhary Mishi Choudhary (@MishiChoudhary) reported

    @signalapp @mer__edith When Internet is down, people can't reach any sites or apps? What can they do

  • davej4449 Dave J (@davej4449) reported

    @signalapp Humm.. Email suffers from lots of MITM issues. Would I install an apk link received in an email? No.

  • inazkam نازلی کاموری (@inazkam) reported

    @signalapp Also, consider that many Iranians who go to the protests have to uninstall the Signal app and reinstall it when they get back home just to be safe. This verification problem is significant, many have lost access to their Signal app as a result.

  • DeveloperNima Nima Zare (@DeveloperNima) reported

    @signalapp VPN service companies should offer public subscriptions so that people can connect easily. This is the best way. We need help now, tomorrow is too late.#IRanASignalProxy

  • ZarebinGraphic Ali Zarebin 🏴 (@ZarebinGraphic) reported

    @GibsonShirin @signalapp Currently i don't have difficulty download the app , but have problem with signup and receive sms code !

  • SaffariSoroush Soroush Saffari (@SaffariSoroush) reported

    @KonstantWeddige @rezashahnazar @signalapp The internet isn't shut down completely (yet) 😕 I hope he's okay and can get online again. Thank you for the side note, I'll delete that tweet and send it to him directly.

  • aryanramens Jobs (@aryanramens) reported

  • KonstantWeddige Konstantin Weddige (@KonstantWeddige) reported

    @davej4449 @signalapp This shouldn't be an issue here, as this is what apk signing is for.

  • ZarebinGraphic Ali Zarebin 🏴 (@ZarebinGraphic) reported
