  • internetfreedom Internet Freedom Foundation (IFF) (@internetfreedom) reported

    @booleanhunter @telegram @signalapp As things stand yes, there is potential risk of undermining the privacy on these platforms and if they do not make these damaging changes then for a block on them. This is why this issue is important and the IT Rules are immensely significant.

  • jerryaldrichiii Jerry Aldrich (@jerryaldrichiii) reported

    @b_stevenz @signalapp Nope, not yet. What kinda issues?

    So as we see @WhatsApp has a problem with Indian IT law . Does @signalapp and @telegram as the same problem!!

  • kebabmaihaddi Aviral Srivastava (@kebabmaihaddi) reported

    @signalapp , would you implement Traceability as per the new laws or rather face a shut down in India?

    @signalapp it appears messages are delivered but the recipient doesn't see them. Is there an outage?

  • b_stevenz b steve (@b_stevenz) reported

    @jerryaldrichiii @signalapp I’ve seen this on some user devices … those people eventually dealing with big issues … did you notice anything happen afterwards ?

  • shijuren Free_folk (@shijuren) reported

    @signalapp ho, I can't use my Chinese mobile number to login. Can you show me a solution?

  • youtah Jeff McGrath (@youtah) reported from Lehi, Utah

    Ya'll have any tricks to cutting down @signalapp spam. It's not super often but getting to be bi-monthly atleast.

  • krishhhnesh Krishhhnesh (@krishhhnesh) reported

    @signalapp We are planning... but it would be great if you make a app that could help us transfer our data chats and media from whatsapp to signal.. because we have been using whatsapp for so long... I am telling the app will be a blockbuster in India... Give it some thoughts...

  • petrolthreads Petrolthreads (@petrolthreads) reported

    @signalapp updates not working ...

  • tanxfighter Tanmay Sinha (@tanxfighter) reported

    Hey @signalapp, whenever I click on Chat Backup in chats menu the app freezes and crash tried reinstalling the app and deleting the old backup but nothing worked. Please help.

  • Imps_007 PAWAN KUMAR (@Imps_007) reported

    Dear @signalapp How can I download in sumsung A7 Tab ?? Could you help me ?

  • YemiOgunbase Yemi Ogunbase (@YemiOgunbase) reported

    @signalapp , enabling chat bubbles with no way to turn them off in-app is like being awakened by the annoying neighbors at 7:42 on a Sunday morning after a Goldschläger binge. Yes. They're that bad. Please fix, because I was thisclose to uninstalling.

  • ilavmi Lav mittal (@ilavmi) reported

    @signalapp unable to make clear calls. Please help.

  • matthewstafford Matthew Stafford (@matthewstafford) reported

    @hodgesmr @signalapp Your original point is still important, though! There's implicit trust that your OS isn't intercepting and logging messages as you type them, for instance, which is a problem for third-party keyboards (esp. common when the localized OS keyboard is ******, for instance).

  • VishwaR48324933 Vishwa Ranjan (@VishwaR48324933) reported

    Enough is enough.... GOI make the whatsapp kneel down on its knees.....teach them to be in limits....cause we are having other apps @signalapp alternative to whatsapp......**** #WhatsApp

  • freetechtrick Free Tech Trick (@freetechtrick) reported

    @signalapp signal was not install in my samsung tab SM-T231 android 4.4.2 pls help

  • b_stevenz b steve (@b_stevenz) reported

    @jerryaldrichiii @signalapp Sorry I was vague lol so these ppl were just regular users and they ended up stuck with a persistent screen mirror hidden in their system apps . We had only seen it in WhatsApp from what I know and we kicked it to google since we are just the cell service provider

  • Wakeem26995669 Ahmad Dunne (@Wakeem26995669) reported

    @AndroidDev and @signalapp Can you two start playing together again? Very frustrating to go backwards in capabilities. I understand an update for other issues caused signal to stop working on auto, but please tell me this will be addressed in next updates, soon please?

  • thecoolbhakt TheCoolBhakt (@thecoolbhakt) reported

    @MeghUpdates @signalapp is also having e2e encryption why don't they have an issue with the new rules then??

  • BestTraderEver BestTraderEver (@BestTraderEver) reported

    @signalapp Signal is back my ***, if you can't manage all of my text messaging I don't want you to manage any of it. When the f*** are you going to fix it so it work with all text messaging?

  • SKSUMIT94222934 S K SUMIT (@SKSUMIT94222934) reported

    @signalapp It is working in a very useless way. Here the application is working very slowly. I hope all of you will solve the problems as soon as possible!

  • cshanahan Chris Shanahan (@cshanahan) reported

    So many of my friends have switched from @signalapp to @telegram lately. I didn't understand why, until now. Creating a group in @signalapp is so frustrating and broken. Such a shame...

  • oqaqiq Oqaqiq 😷 (@oqaqiq) reported

    @wendylyon @signalapp @kat_toth What you’re saying has little value. This software explains what it will do and then does what it told you. The problem here is that you accepted something that you regretted afterwards.

  • Laxman10069600 Laxman (@Laxman10069600) reported
