    @NetAskari @signalapp Are the servers down?

    Hi @signalapp. On iOS you ask for my recovery key as a reminder. This makes no sense to me. Either I still have it or I don't. If I don't have it anymore, your reminder will not help. What am I missing?

  • oracleofobama

    @signalapp is down

    @FareedZakaria @mer__edith @signalapp AI game is just beginning. It will reach Nash’s equilibrium when its exploitation will hurt not just the masses but also the corporations. It could happen because people have no money to buy stuff, or there are drastic errors in algorithms (AI is approximation). But it will.

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

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

    @signalapp is broken, I guess

    @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.

    @signalapp Please fix the group bug. After I remove some accounts that have already been deactivated from the group, the group member count does not change and does not reflect the actual number of members.

    @signalapp is the app down or something, things were fine for days now me messages take forever to go through, but even when they become two circles with a checkmark they never fill anymore and I get no responses???

    @signalapp Signal is letting Romanian scammers use my account to steal money off Irish people… I reported the issue to them over a month ago and the company refuses to look into it

    Once again, aws is down, @signalapp too. It cannot be trusted.

    @signalapp is down?

  • bdmurdock
    Bryan Murdock (@bdmurdock) reported

    @Gold_Phishy @signalapp Unfortunately registration lock is not on by default. Probably because people have a hard time remembering their PIN, and Signal doesn't want you writing it down

  • dalu_hey
    Darko Luketic (@dalu_hey) reported

    @signalapp Phone Video calls are broken on Android since the last update

  • kassandraETH

    i think @signalapp is/was down for a bit?

  • Sami_Lehtinen

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

    @signalapp when we use signal call and along with we use Spotify then why we are not able to play and pause song with handsfrees plz check and solve this problem because in snapchat it is not creating this problem,only signal app is creating kindly improve

  • 0to80Eventually
    Not here, nor there! (@0to80Eventually) reported

    @signalapp Terrible time to associate your great app with Bill Gate's Microsoft.

    @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

  • swenlei56
    swenlei (@swenlei56) reported

    @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

  • BryanAgain
    Bryan again.. (@BryanAgain) reported

    @signalapp tl;dr: user error, stop being retarded.

  • Avitus2187
    Avitus (@Avitus2187) reported

    @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.

  • mtrantalainen
    Mikko Rantalainen (@mtrantalainen) reported

    @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.

    @JustNews_tg @signalapp Technology cannot fix human error. All the encryption in the world won't save you from yourself.
