Signal Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
青い夜の記憶 (@XBMXYW) reported@signalapp When will Google and Apple's passkey login be supported? Both telegram and wechat next door have been supported, and it comes from the loyal appeal of an advanced user who supports signal software development every month.
-
Nick Cairns (@simpin4pepe) reported@signalapp This is literally as old as dial up. I may or may not have done it way back when AOL was a pay per hour service. Send out 3000 messages all at once and have chat log turned on. Account would get nuked in 5 min, go to the log and there would be five more accounts.
-
CKR (@CKRSandra) reported@signalapp I thought I was contacting signal support and I was I text sometimes they do as for the signal pin. Now they ask for donations. Please Check my account and see how you can help me.
-
ARQ (@ARQ1481987) reported@chat If this meant to compete with @signalapp the open-source the whole thing; otherwise it’s hard to the see the point… can you help us to see the point?
-
MarcG (@ThisisMarcG) reported@ritrixi @signalapp Its great for the login, but There was a decent argument for phone numbers, in order to gate the signups while still keeping it free. which made sense a while back. Passkeys still need a fallback & Users are sharing that fallback. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
-
David J. Nemeth 🇺🇸 (@davidjnemeth) reported@signalapp no one else having issues sending from the windows app? all my recent inbound messages come through, but sending just has a constant circle
-
Sarina (@Rainwashmee) reported@signalapp In 1988, Iranians were silenced by guns. In 2022, by blackout. In 2025, will you help them be heard? #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran
-
Foxy⚔️ (@Dancinfoxy) reported@signalapp Is it just to remain connected while 80 million Iranians are silenced? Please help them, however you can. #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran
-
anthonychopra (@anthonychopra) reported@signalapp @404mediaco Did they even show proof or can someone see if Apple did fix it or did they lie about the fix too
-
papi@bigpapi55. (@VenomC11612) reported@signalapp @signalapp I tried creating account but it always failing pls I need a fix on that
-
pnouɹɐℲ (@TashiTushe) reportedDamn, I didn’t know this!!! @signalapp Might fully move from Telegram to Signal at this point. My main issue with TG has always been the scammy bots/games and the fact msg aren’t encrypted by default unless you manually use Secret Chat. Other than that, it’s honestly a great and complete app
-
常隆威 (@ChangW30200) reported@signalapp I believe that to solve this problem, we must learn from the software Session/SimpleX and remove the real-name registration requirement for phone numbers. This would render any hacking efforts futile.
-
Marcin Nolte 🇵🇱🇩🇪🇺🇸 (@NolteIT) reported@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.
-
Kata Saya (@Tree_0flife) reported@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.
-
Ambler (@AmblerKR) reported@signalapp @bluesky @joinmastodon Also, login should be possible without a phone number. Users should be able to sign in with either an email address or their handle.
-
Biddaddy (@biddaddy_lc) reported@signalapp @404mediaco lowkey wild that it took a leak for this fix
-
KRYPTZINE GØÓÑ (@kryptzine) reported@monitalan @signalapp Sure, when there's a problem, definitely solutions will come
-
sam (@Samortelle) reported@signalapp Freedom's voice is silenced when internet dies. Help keep it alive. #DigitalBlackOutIran #IranRevolution2026
-
Tom🌶\(^-^)/🌶 infosec.exchange/@tomlawrence (@TomLawrenceTech) reported@NetworkChuck @WhatsApp If you want to stay as secure as possible, you don't use WhatsApp. @signalapp is a far better alternative and is not run by a company with a terrible track record violating privacy laws and spying on people.
-
Sascha Dämgen 🧐 (@sascha_daemgen) reported@signalapp Phone number + recovery PIN are phishable. FIDO2 hardware tokens are not. That's an architecture choice, not a "universal messaging problem." SimpleGoX ships FIDO2 in 048. No phone number to hijack in the first place. 🔐

Foxy⚔️ (@Dancinfoxy) reported@signalapp Is it just to remain connected while 80 million Iranians are silenced? Please help them, however you can. #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran
-
BrendanEich (@BrendanEich) reportedSignal keeps nagging to enable push notifications, with no way to stop the nags. User-hostile not user-first, and now shown to be insecure. Please fix both bugs: allow nag-stopping, an easy fix; and (if you can) avoid insecure iOS-layer push notification database, @signalapp!
-
alienznbotz.nft (@alienznbotz) reported@signalapp Hello, why can't Android users not send a vídeo without having to have enable Google Photos App to be able to compress any video. Why can't it be independent of Google photos for compression like WhatsApp does. Please address this issue. Thank you.
-
MotoMurphyADV (@MotoMurphyADV) reported@signalapp seems to be down right now.
-
Liberty NH 🦔⚡️🌲 (@NHpilled) reported@signalapp Is Signal down right now?
-
Zchat | Shielded messenger (@zchat_app) reported@signalapp phishing thrives in the gap between encrypted transport and unverified identity. the hardest privacy problem isn't the message content, it's proving who sent it
-
miguel (@Miguelwtfzu) reported@vonderburchard @signalapp Layer 8 problem
-
fabian (@fabianleitner) reported@signalapp I would argue that that's more of a people-being-naive issue than anything Signal as a company could control
-
Tony Losego (@Titalus) reported@gg8866401 @signalapp A proper execution would fix all of this.
-
Bryan again.. (@BryanAgain) reported@signalapp tl;dr: user error, stop being retarded.
