    @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?

  • _loick_ Le Digabel Loïck (@_loick_) reported

    @signalapp Hey, I tried your app but I have an issue: when I send a message via the app, I don't see my message on the mac app. And the reverse is the same. Any idea why? Anything I ca do on my side? Thanks!

  • 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.

  • Twerterus Gabrielus (@Twerterus) reported

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

  • an_toni Toni Alatalo (@an_toni) reported

    @crenshaw_dev @signalapp Thanks! Not yet, wanna be well prepared, is not a quick fix anyway. Yesterday was thinking about more issues that didn't write down yet. Help: I'd like to know how the .cn ppl get their OS and the IME app installs, which vendors and stores. This is not only for them but anyway.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • brennobp Brennero ブレンネロ (@brennobp) reported

    @_WhenMoon_ @signalapp If you're in Windows you can, in the meantime, modify the target field in the app shortcut and put this in the end "--use-tray-icon", but it has it a problem: notifications wont be shown just a red spot in the the icon tray when messages are unread

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

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

  • RAVIUDUPA 😎 𝑅𝒜𝒱𝐼 UDUPA 😍💙💚💛 (@RAVIUDUPA) reported

    @calvin_sharara @signalapp Please contact @SignalApp directly via PM and describe your problem. They can help you immediately...

  • forsakebook forsakebook (@forsakebook) reported

    @CaseyNewton Terrible idea. Switch to @signalapp

  • Twerterus Gabrielus (@Twerterus) reported

    @signalapp Your SMS verification is down in Malta and has been down for several days. 5 of my friends could not sign up. The phone prefix in Malta +356

  • 0Aditya1 Aditya Mishra (@0Aditya1) reported

    @whatsabschalten @WhatsApp @signalapp I guess it's more to do with the interface and other features like status and broadcast which is missing in signal. Signal has privacy advantages but privacy lapse isn't a big issue in India. Most people are even fine with govt surveillance. Signal must offer exclusive features

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

    @0Aditya1 @WhatsApp @signalapp Why not? Because they don't like you? Or because you have problems with the app?

  • 0Aditya1 Aditya Mishra (@0Aditya1) reported

    @whatsabschalten @WhatsApp @signalapp to convince people. Privacy isn't a deal breaker in India. Only few urban elite will switch due to privacy issues. If signal doesn't offer any exclusive feature then it will become another we chat or hike (secondary Messenger choice) and will later get replaced by any other app.

  • 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

  • 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

  • want_fi Ryan (@want_fi) reported

    @signalapp @signalapp Are you still experiencing issues? I have signed up two friends and I cannot find either of them through the phone number search

  • 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?

  • RushaneMunganda Rushane Munganda (@RushaneMunganda) reported
