  @signalapp Is it just to remain connected while 80 million Iranians are silenced? Please help them, however you can. #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran

  @gg8866401 @signalapp A proper execution would fix all of this.

  @dedelaugesen @signalapp no that's the app trying to help you remember your pin through spaced repetition. if that gets annoying pretty sure you could turn it off in settings the recent phishing campaigns are different to what you mention

  @signalapp Phishing exploits human error, not encryption. Always safeguard your PINs and codes, and use secure, privacy-first messaging tools to stay protected.

  The issue here, isn't marketshare, like in the case of WhatsApp vs @signalapp

  @signalapp Every time I open a specific chat the whole app hangs and crashes. Any word on a fix? #SignalBug #AppCrash

  @signalapp Why should I use your service instead of WhatsApp?

•

  @signalapp Rule of the internet: If someone asks for your verification code, they’re trying to steal your account. No legit service will ever ask for it. Stay sharp.

  Beyond AI (@BeyondAI01) reported 26 minutes ago

  @signalapp If the infrastructure and encryption of Signal remain uncompromised, then this is a social engineering problem, not a platform breach. User awareness is the real defense here.

  @FiliusGrok @signalapp @WhiteHouse It's not the tech, it's user error, as it has been in every other situation where a story like this drops.

• 
  Mikko Rantalainen (@mtrantalainen) reported 28 minutes ago

  @Elminster04 @signalapp Yes, but you shouldn't give any extra credit for perfect grammar either. ChatGPT et al can fix grammar of any phishing message if scammers just bothered to do that. Currently bad grammar works as a filter to continue phishing attack with the most gullible victims only.

  @signalapp Unable create new account help me.

  @callebtc @signalapp @smspoolnet even tho i dislike the titan, port your number to Google Voice for $10 then keep the free service. only problem is it registers as VoiP so doesn't always authenticate as a true phone number. but it verifies with Signal

  Eason Chai (@easonchaiii) reported 31 minutes ago

  @theonejvo @signalapp seems like a reoccurring issue with people getting into vibecoding

• 
  Marcin Nolte 🇵🇱🇩🇪🇺🇸 (@NolteIT) reported 32 minutes ago

  @signalapp Military-grade encryption. Zero infrastructure compromises. And then: “Hi, this is Signal Support Bot, please confirm your verification code.” The math was never the problem.

  @mer__edith @signalapp After repeated messages and emails to Signal support, over issues of Indonesian numbers unable to register for signal and receiving nothing but 🦗... Beginning to wonder if there isn't something more substantially sinister going on. What is being hidden and why? If its bug - say and give a fix it timeline. If it's soft censorship, say so (aka the Gov leaned on you). Otherwise it's beginning to sound suspicious.

  @signalapp DID YOU KNOW THAT YOUR APP IS BEING USED MY INSURRECTIONISTS? I will do everything I can to SHUT YOU DOWN.

  @theonejvo @signalapp What was the fix? Sounded like an exposed control plane gave everyone access which seems somewhat intended?

  Hey @signalapp The Problem With Reply voice message and VoiceOver is Back. If You reply To a Message With Voice Message and VoiceOver is enabled you Don’t cud Play The Message

  @monitalan @signalapp Sure, when there's a problem, definitely solutions will come

  @signalapp Day 79: Iran's government silences its people by cutting off the internet. Without connection, voices are extinguished. You have the power to help amplify them. Please, use your influence to stand with us. #DigitalBlackOutIran #IranRevolution2026

  @KELECHUKWU_OTF @eazytvmedia The only problem with it is that it feels too casual. People don't use it for Professional Groups. I want to mention @signalapp here. People should really consider it, over WhatsApp.

  fabian (@fabianleitner) reported 53 minutes ago

  @signalapp I would argue that that's more of a people-being-naive issue than anything Signal as a company could control

  @signalapp is down?

• 
  Avitus (@Avitus2187) reported 59 minutes ago

  @nyakojiru @mer__edith @signalapp 6. **Mandatory IP protection**: Built-in Tor (or equivalent) for every connection, non-disableable. This would severely degrade the service. Just use a VPN.
