Signal Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • noalias noalias (@noalias) reported

    @signalapp there’s some problems with sharing to Signal in iOS you have to share twice before the app shows up in the list of apps

  • RealSexyCyborg Naomi Wu 机械妖姬 (@RealSexyCyborg) reported

    @WoodRatInScrubs @signalapp @moxie This is just a reminder so people know. The problem is journalists tell activists Signal is secure and safe with no further information- and that has gotten some activists in trouble. This is the first step in mitigating that.

  • Noms2000 Noms 2000 (@Noms2000) reported

    @signalapp Are there still issues? Messages I send are hanging (circle whirling round), and pictures I sent days ago are still whirling and haven’t been delivered

  • saimtastic 𝓝𝓪𝓮𝓮𝓶 نعیم नईम (@saimtastic) reported

    Hey @signalapp, I'm having an issue lately that I get messages on Signal very late. Like someone sent me a message at 8 in the morning and it was received on my end at 4 in the evening. Kindly fix this issue because it's kinda ruining an otherwise great app.

  • b_antunes /brúno antúnɛs/ (@b_antunes) reported

    Is @signalapp down again?

  • YogeshBhuta3 Yogesh Bhuta (@YogeshBhuta3) reported

    @signalapp Automatic disappears after a day feature is not working on member’s mobile in Group chat but works on Admin’s mobile only. Can we have a guideline how members also benefit from this feature?

  • TheKarmiDance Karmolade (@TheKarmiDance) reported

    @daphnetoli @signalapp @wa_status That’s what I was hoping for. I have a very long email exchange saved w/ Instagram where I’m basically pleading with them to stop replying with templates and take some action. I even copied their own terms of service that were being violated: nothing.

  • ZafferM Zaf (@ZafferM) reported

    Unable to install @signalapp on a different handset as I prefer keeping it isolated from the phone with the SIM but not getting past the telephone number screen. Not getting any SMS not the screen updates any further. Is that a feature or some other issue.

  • YJerrell5 YJerrell (@YJerrell5) reported

    @signalapp I'm having issues with not receiving text messages from other numbers. Anybody else seeing this?

  • kalemsoryazar 🖊️kalemşor ʸᵃᶻᵃ® (@kalemsoryazar) reported

    @signalapp Why no updates? 6 days have passed! Have all the problems been solved.

  • cheenikamchai Neha (@cheenikamchai) reported

    @signalapp ???? No response & no solution. Still facing the same issue

  • Twerterus Gabrielus (@Twerterus) reported

    @whatsabschalten @calvin_sharara @signalapp Also tried multiple phones and sim cards, so it's not a phone /permission issue

  • RealSexyCyborg Naomi Wu 机械妖姬 (@RealSexyCyborg) reported

    @PerfectlyFriedB @EFF @signalapp The problem is as a Chinese national it's not really a great idea for me to be making specific recommendations, I hope that's something other people can start to do though.

  • forsakebook forsakebook (@forsakebook) reported

    @CaseyNewton Terrible idea. Switch to @signalapp

  • AintTeefa 🌶 Anna (@AintTeefa) reported

    @signalapp when someone texts me or calls me on my Galaxy S10 I only know about it, when I open the chat channel of that person. Can't be that this is how it should work. Can you fix this pls?

  • RakhisiAmin amin rakhisi (@RakhisiAmin) reported

    you know whats the problem ? signal not sync any time, for see who texted you or who joined at this app. you should go and refresh the contacts to get the result. and its bad fix it please @signalapp even if you send file. you cant cancelled it when the file are in uploading

  • TheMarwariBuoy Ankit Agarwal (@TheMarwariBuoy) reported from Guwahati, Assam

    Keeping aside the privacy issue,Signal is what WhatsApp used to be when it was launched. Minimalistic design,a proper messaging service.@signalapp @WhatsApp #SignalApp #signalkarna

  • tazmanov teddy krugger (@tazmanov) reported

    @signalapp You should fix a bug they have since 2018 in which people are not able to receive calls and video calls. when they call you, the mobile doesn't ring and suddenly you get a missed call message. It happens to all the people around me. uninstalling Signal and returning to Whatsp

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

    @b_antunes @signalapp No, what kind of problems do you have?

  • iSanjeevRanjan Sanjeev Ranjan (@iSanjeevRanjan) reported

    @signalapp Issue in cropping picture during sending images. Basic stuff. Always there should be a section for call logs.

  • AqeelAhmed AQEEL عقيل (@AqeelAhmed) reported

    @signalapp when attempting to send videos, we keep getting an endless loop of uploading. I’m thinking it has something to do with file size / 4K video. Is this a known issue?

  • RealSexyCyborg Naomi Wu 机械妖姬 (@RealSexyCyborg) reported

    @WoodRatInScrubs @signalapp @moxie The problem is the incognito flag is just a suggestion, keyboards don't have to honor it and many don't- so can upload your data.

  • iamhvijay Hemant Vijay (@iamhvijay) reported

    @Airtel_Presence doesn't give a damn about my DND activation. I keep receiving marketing robocalls. Is there a privacy oriented telecom service provider in India? I wish @signalapp was my service provider

  • tphlat t♭ (@tphlat) reported

    Hey @telegram please enable secret chat/expiring messages on MacOS desktop. The excuse from your help center that "only 2% of people use it" just makes you not competitive with @signalapp for people who are actually concerned with privacy.

  • RealSexyCyborg Naomi Wu 机械妖姬 (@RealSexyCyborg) reported

    @WoodRatInScrubs @signalapp @moxie Just a confirmation of the issue.

  • CryptoSchaef CryptoSchaef 🇺🇸 (@CryptoSchaef) reported

    @signalapp I’d like to help beta test. How can I sign up?

  • ScouseNotEnglsh ScouseNotEnglish (@ScouseNotEnglsh) reported

    @signalapp Made the switch, i like my privacy, FB, MZ took it as a toy. I will continue with @signal coz its legit safe n secure. Anythin else is jus askin for trouble

  • JTChege 𝕵𝖎𝖒𝖒𝖞 𝕮𝖍𝖊𝖌𝖊 (@JTChege) reported

    The only problem with @telegram and @signalapp is pilling up your screen every time your contacts join their apps.

  • BozaJoza 🎭Jóža🇪🇺Bóža😷 (@BozaJoza) reported

    @fourk_ @Cyb3rGh @signalapp I don't know much about this, but the "last login" date is like one of the only three pieces of information stored on Signal's servers (the others are the phone number and the time of registration). So if you mind that, you should know that it's already stored.

  • BRANDENDORSERng 👑 King Kay 👑 (@BRANDENDORSERng) reported

    You can't get back in to @signalapp from opened apps on Android? Is this an isolated problem?
