  • ArminderDahul Arminder Dahul (@ArminderDahul) reported

    @signalapp I’m having problems getting notifications on iOS 14.4. Notifications only pop up when I open Signal. Oddly on iPadOS 14.4 they come through instantly. Is there any way to rectify this?

  • AnoopKumar_ Anoop (@AnoopKumar_) reported

    @signalapp While link sharing from app I am getting error for multiple attachment.

  • joel_duckworth Joel Duckworth (@joel_duckworth) reported

    @signalapp Signal push notifications aren't coming through to Apple watch (series 2) any ideas? Anyone got the same issue?

  • NeoParis Paris Mellow (@NeoParis) reported

    @signalapp The app doesn't ring or make any sound when I receive an incoming call on my note 20.this is incredibly frustrating so how can I fix/solve this issue?

  • eurorecovery247 اول مسلمان بعد افغان (@eurorecovery247) reported

    @signalapp This is my fifth time I am asking for the issue to be resolved, when I am on signal phone call and another normal phone comes, signal does not put me on hold, it disconnects, why!!?? This is a big issue

  • Sam_Mudaser Rebel🔫 (@Sam_Mudaser) reported

    Facing this problem while calling on @signalapp seems to consume more mobile data than WhatsApp. The data consumption in signal is very High. Will it be fixed?

  • h78842 ImThatGuy (@h78842) reported

    @killing_j0ke @signalapp They won’t help. They’re always in denial. Their app is perfect and the users are lying

  • ChristianUffel Christian von Uffel (@ChristianUffel) reported

    @moxie how are you guys dealing with customer feedback signal to noise problem that's undoubtedly come from @signalapp's tremendous growth?

  • firepower66 ONLY UNITY CAN TAKE US FORWARD (@firepower66) reported

    @signalapp How will signal pay for the upkeep of this service?

  • RaphanusR Raphanus Raphanistrum (@RaphanusR) reported

    @signalapp servers go down due to huge influx of privacy concious people signing up. Imagine what happens when the same people discover #Monero

  • kaldeepsingh1 Kaldeep Singh (@kaldeepsingh1) reported

    @signalapp having issues getting a code to sign up. Being trying for over one week. Tried the 'call be back' option but haven't received a call.... Can you help?

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

    @nashtysmans @signalapp What kind of problem are you having exactly? You can also contact me via PM. I will try to help you.

  • nashtysmans Nash Tysmans (@nashtysmans) reported

    Dear @signalapp, is there an issue with support on your end? I've had to reinstall Signal on my phone and I'm getting frustrated because the app keeps asking for a pin I never made. I contacted support several times but haven't heard from anyone there. Help please.

  • AndreGutmensch Andre (@AndreGutmensch) reported

    @gusmelo @signalapp @moxie Don't you find it odd how much effort is put into criticising pioneering work of a non-profit that is taking up global censorship problems? I think this is all a bit fabricated to put the brakes on the success of signal.

  • ODR_Psy Oliver D. Reithmaier (@ODR_Psy) reported

    @tmalsburg @signalapp battery optimization could be disabled. check in your settings. if it isn't, force the app to stop and restart through settings. might help...

  • CynthiaAdjes Cynthia A (@CynthiaAdjes) reported

    Hi @signalapp, pls can you fix the bug with delayed messages on group chats? I am chatting with people on different time zones and I receive their messages 20-24 hours after they have sent it.

  • actuallyaryaman Aryaman S (@actuallyaryaman) reported

    @signalapp i have my backup paraphrase, i have my signal registration pin but for some reasons i am unable to restor my messages and my profile is being reset.. kindly help...I don't want to lose the messages!

  • SuperHeronDan Dan Heron (@SuperHeronDan) reported

    Reminder WhatsApp new terms of service were to go into effect tomorrow. If you care about that kind of thing now is the time to delete your account. Move to @telegram and @signalapp

  • Deploriot Deploriot (@Deploriot) reported

    @teslatrey @signalapp Sounds like an Apple problem if application data is accessible from locked device?

  • madmanweb Madhu Menon (@madmanweb) reported

    The time take for the @signalapp to sync back from the desktop app to the mobile app is glacial. I use it for a few hours on my PC and when I open the app on my phone, it takes forever to download the messages, unlike Whatsapp. If you're in a busy group, heaven help you.

  • Kat970901 ᴮᴱKaterpillar⁷ (@Kat970901) reported

    @signalapp Please pay attention to that. More and more people are getting spam on Signal. I got a spam, and four more people I found on Twitter (I retweeted them) got the same problem. PLEASE FIX THIS. THIS IS IMPORTANT. If you see this please RT.

  • bentasker Ben Tasker (@bentasker) reported

    @moxie @signalapp is there an option to change the colour of your own messages in the android app? Black text on grey background is bad for people with eyesight issues - there's an option to change font size, but not colour from what I can see

  • erdmaennchen42 Stephan Lukasczyk (@erdmaennchen42) reported

    @Mat2095 @ThreemaApp @signalapp I've had some issues with group chats in Signal, too. But that's years ago, works well now at least for what I can tell. There is only one reason, people could complain about Threema: they charge you money—which is fine for me but obviously not for everyone.

  • ngranati Nicolas Granatino (@ngranati) reported

    .@signalapp in helping users transition to your service, a tiny feature would help. Could you please let know users how many contacts from their address book are on Signal. Thank you for your work for a better messaging future.

  • simas_ch Simon Martinelli (@simas_ch) reported

    @whatsabschalten @signalapp I found the issue. Signal is not syncing existing chats

  • NourddineAfra Nou A (@NourddineAfra) reported

    @signalapp @signalapp I have so much people that have Chinese smartphone Oppo Huawei Xiaomi ecc that don't receive notifications.. Unfortunately some people don't know how to solve these problems even if you explain how to do it. First cause of this problem is battery optimization

  • SwissTeslaphile Roman Müller 🔋🚙 (@SwissTeslaphile) reported

    @signalapp love the app. My wife struggles with her Android as it doesn't give her notifications of nr messages unread on screen. The notifications in the drop down thingy are there. Any idea?

  • MarcoXiao6 MarcoXiao (@MarcoXiao6) reported

    @signalapp ...I've mentioned that Signal started to use the reCaptcha to verify if the users are robots. But reCaptcha isn't available in China(Blocked by the Chinese ISPs), which made Chinese users unable to login unless bypassing the ISPs' firewalls.

  • NKScientists North Korean Scientists (@NKScientists) reported

    @dhirenmotilal @signalapp This is not a problem in providing data to get service, the problem is when it is taken from you without your knowledge, is shared with other, you can't delete it, you can't opt out, system is socially designed to mine data and feed you with information you didn't asked for.

  • mholt6 🧗‍♂️ Matt Holt (@mholt6) reported

    Anyone out there running @SignalApp Beta and willing to help test something real quick (hopefully)?
