  • the_flash2017 olyma (@the_flash2017) reported

    Ugh @signalapp is so annoying. Now all my messages aren't going through even though my friend's messages are coming in. It's clearly not my internet then what's the problem. Been like this since yesterday.

  • mainlyrock mainlyrock (@mainlyrock) reported

    It seems like the latest iPhone @signalapp update has removed my profile picture. Not a huge problem, but maybe this could be fixed

  • tim12s 𝕱𝖔𝖝/𝕾𝖊𝖆𝖌𝖚𝖑𝖑 𝖋𝖎𝖑𝖙𝖍 𝖌𝖗𝖎𝖋𝖋𝖎𝖓 🐺 (@tim12s) reported

    @signalapp Please explain why I should continue using your service when I get multiple texts 3 days late, and outgoing texts don't go out.

  • KingOfCoders Stephan Schmidt 🚀 (@KingOfCoders) reported

    Idiots at @signalapp should fix the bugs instead of adding payments. Can't connect desktop to Signal as the mobile app does not recognize the QR code :-( (And I have been a Signal evangelist for many years)

  • sofiachqareuli Sofia Chqareuli (@sofiachqareuli) reported

    @signalapp @signalapp cant receive a verification code. No local operator restrictions. No restrictions on 📱 My details emailed to the support few days ago, no response piz help! Thnx! Everyone can reply

  • ramboxapp Rambox (@ramboxapp) reported

    @DanieClaassen @signalapp doesn't have a web interface where we can add to Rambox, they only offer their service via their desktop clients. 😥

  • sebkinne Sebastian Kinne (@sebkinne) reported

    Hey @signalapp are there any issues with registrations at the moment? I can't transfer my account - the app times out when I enter the code. An incorrect code is rejected immediately.

  • Vaishnav_Jois Vaishnav Jois (@Vaishnav_Jois) reported

    Is @signalapp down? #SignalDown

  • OskieMignon Oskie Mignon (@OskieMignon) reported

    @tcely @signalapp Problem is I'd be the only one in my circle to be using it.

  • Anmaril Christian Müller 🌿 (@Anmaril) reported

    @signalapp Finally want to start to use the app but cannot register an account, like, at all. The app refuses to connect to some sort of service it needs. Tried everything I can find online, to no avail.

  • tcely Chris Ely ⚛☢️💉😷🗳️ | #EndDST (@tcely) reported

    @JuneOkal Apple made terrible choices compared to @signalapp.

  • ernestognw Ξrnesto | ernestognw.eth 🦇🔊 (@ernestognw) reported

    @mengeroshi @signalapp Whisper basically died because of the lack of incentives to turn it on while running an eth node. It's pretty old. Same happend to Swarm (IPFS like storage). @ethstatus was one of the main Whisper adopters, but they deprecated it in favor of a custom messaging service

  • Network_Guy JC (@Network_Guy) reported

    @badiucao @signalapp They have been soliciting funds this way for a few months now. I don't recall reading anything about financial problems.

  • tcely Chris Ely ⚛☢️💉😷🗳️ | #EndDST (@tcely) reported

    @DannyCasst You know your iPhone is the problem for sending SMS in the first place. Install @signalapp and you too can have private messages for Apple & Android devices.

  • MsUnitedAmerica Pattie Christina 🇺🇸👑🇺🇸 (@MsUnitedAmerica) reported

    Did you know that in the event of an internet outage @signalapp will remain functional? ✅ If you have downloaded @signalapp, please DM me, let's connect! 📳

    @signalapp Am I the only one with sound shifted during call issue?

  • tcely Chris Ely ⚛☢️💉😷🗳️ | #EndDST (@tcely) reported

    @mstk24192859 iOS + RCS won't solve this problem. It's just an upgrade to SMS after all. Try @signalapp for encrypted messages that work for both iOS and Android.

  • NickNewisle Niklas Nyholm (@NickNewisle) reported

    @signalapp Calls are very unreliable. I have issues with many contacts. Same problem; calls don't ring on the receiving end, even if the dial tone is heard on my end. Sometimes that call will arrive (ring) hours later, but if answered, nobody there. Happens on Android and iOS.

  • queer_spice Tory Cross🧣 (@queer_spice) reported

    @WPeriyasamy @signalapp No bb literally so many people I realized don’t know these 2 things!!! So this is a public service announcements

  • bigdave914 Big Dave (@bigdave914) reported

    @signalapp please help it’s been months now. I’ve opened multiple support cases with no response.

  • bigdave914 Big Dave (@bigdave914) reported

    @whatsabschalten @signalapp Stranger still, I can register my number just find on an old iPhone 7 running iOS14 but my iPhone 13 running iOS15 gives the error. Not sure if its iOS15 or the hardware.

  • PrototypeGamin9 Prototype Gaming (@PrototypeGamin9) reported

    @signalapp I am facing a problem with signal I only get notifications only when app is in background or its running

  • JNitterauer Jim Nitterauer (@JNitterauer) reported

    Just saw an @WhatsApp TV commercial touting the virtues of its encrypted message delivery. Does @Meta really think the world is foolish enough to trust them to encrypt & protect their messages? Come on! Solve the problem & use @signalapp & be 100% sure!

  • tcely Chris Ely ⚛☢️💉😷🗳️ | #EndDST (@tcely) reported

    @anpandoh As with a lot of poor decisions Apple makes it should not be anything Android users know or care about. AirTags and iMessage are the two problems Apple created for everyone that didn't buy devices they made. AirGuard (from @seemoolab) & @signalapp are practically required now.

  • l0calguest localguest (@l0calguest) reported

    Signal @signalapp down?

  • wvmntnmama__ s a r a h 🌑 (@wvmntnmama__) reported

    @signalapp won’t accept my pin, saying I have no network connectivity when I am, indeed, connected. Please help, @signalapp.

  • GrayanOne GrayanOne (@GrayanOne) reported

    @signalapp, can't link new device, fails with: SignalServiceKit.NetworkManagerError error 409. Some advice would be greatly appreciated.

  • Vespasianvs1 Andy 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺💙 (@Vespasianvs1) reported

    @signalapp having a problem with 5.30.0. I can send individual photos but as soon as I try to select multiple photos from my gallery and press send, it closes the send message but nothing actually happens. Tried with multiple recipients and different images.

  • rtr_assassin Igor K (@rtr_assassin) reported

    @samtupy Interesting, though WhatsApp is still functionally separate from the main Facebook app and service. I prefer @Telegram and @signalapp to #WhatsApp anyway and only use it because not enough people have switched away from it.
