  • mehr30na Alireza Mehrsina (@mehr30na) reported

    @signalapp 5.3.2.0 testing on iOS from Iran. Why circumvent is not working ?

  • Rajat07799549 Rajat (@Rajat07799549) reported

    @Faiz_Khan58 @signalapp Ohhh really .I have to make different account on different platforms to raise our problems . I think if you and your company improve your service and special customer care services rather than switch social media platforms is good for your company

  • twicextall Bright Worlasi Avotri (@twicextall) reported

    @signalapp @moxie I've done that already. Battery is not optimized, and data restriction is set to "no restriction" but problem persists. Try to get a fix for it quickly. Thank you

  • twicextall Bright Worlasi Avotri (@twicextall) reported

    @signalapp @moxie You guys need to focus on getting more people unto your platform. I've made several complaints about your app not giving notifications until one launches the app, but you seem not to care. So many friends of mine are abandoning your app due to the notification problems.

  • citizenwill citizenwill (@citizenwill) reported

    @rossgrady @signalapp Agree it's a problem driven by desire to push signal adoption but wanted folks to know there are some guardrails That said, not sending # has been a long time ask. I've reviewed Signal's code & there is no structural reason for it.

  • DanielleWenner Danielle M. Wenner (@DanielleWenner) reported

    @SimonDeDeo @signalapp I had the same questions when I first got it and at least the answer to the second question appears to be "no". (I think there's maybe a setting to address the first problem bc I don't get those anymore)

  • cryingmetal1 cryingmetal (@cryingmetal1) reported

    @signalapp Hi there. I have a problem with quoted images or links. It says that the original message was not found (using the German version so I don't know the exact English wording). So basically I never know what the other person is replying to. Is there a workaround?

  • Ali93418363 Ali (@Ali93418363) reported

    @signalapp Please help me

  • Tttff33166666 Tttff (@Tttff33166666) reported

    @signalapp I've been begging you to help me for days. I really need a signal. the code does not come to me during registration.

  • RaviSalunkhe19 Ravi Salunkhe (@RaviSalunkhe19) reported

    @Erko_okrE @signalapp Ok I now see problems for Voice calls too via Signal! You have to let the ring go until 8-9th time the other user gets a notification.

  • krinndnz Krinn DNZ (@krinndnz) reported

    @ThisIsMissEm @0xabad1dea @signalapp it's such an incredibly horrible anti-feature that it single-handedly makes it plausible that signal & marlinspike are some kind of op; it's just gobsmackingly inappropriate for a secure message service

  • Desi_Batman Desi Batman (@Desi_Batman) reported

    @Ah_BSR @signalapp Experiencing the same issue. Is there any fix available?

  • aaR4 [Rakesh] (@aaR4) reported

    Along with the wave of privacy concerns that saw @signalapp being recognized as a true alternative, Swiss based ‘secure’ email service @ProtonMail seems to be gaining some traction on the email front. Anyone here already using this service?

  • Ragnar_iron Ragnar Lothbrok (@Ragnar_iron) reported

    @signalapp I’m facing bugs please fix this

  • aloftAvenger anjali (@aloftAvenger) reported

    @signalapp I don't receive notifications unless i open the app. Fix?

  • itsyuvilove Yuvi Love (@itsyuvilove) reported

    @signalapp @mcmarsh Signal, I can't record video in a conversation. When I open camera and hold down the shutter it snaps a pic instead of Recording.. please fix? I even emailed your team with all the support log information.

  • ArgeMarce Argé Marcé (@ArgeMarce) reported

    @signalapp Were the stickers the most important thing?? Why don’t you fix the (video) call issue. The other side always complains that they either don’t get any calls or instead missed call notification. Unfortunately I don’t use #SignalApp for calling. Fix it please

  • XR_BSE Extinction Rebellion Bury St Edmunds 🌍🍃💚🍃 (@XR_BSE) reported

    @signalapp One of our members is having trouble downloading signal onto their samsung galaxy phone (not sure which model). Can you offer any advice please?

  • goriloglu Kerem (@goriloglu) reported

    @signalapp The calling is horrible, please fix

  • askRoseAgency Rose Agency Inc. (@askRoseAgency) reported

    @signalapp How do you monetize a free service without personal data?

  • hitesh16dahiya Hitesh Dahiya (@hitesh16dahiya) reported

    @signalapp Hey I would like to have stickers like Hike Messenger. Please take a look at those. They did such an amazing work before shutting down the app.

  • Bikhabaroffline بی خبر (@Bikhabaroffline) reported

    @signalapp Did you do anything special to solve the censorship problem in Iran?

  • ThePrimeagen ThePrimeagen (@ThePrimeagen) reported

    @seanay3 @signalapp Not the ones making terrible decisions. Engineers are pretty rad though

  • sweetkhanpk100 بیلنس منڈا (@sweetkhanpk100) reported

    @signalapp Please add call history. Same like what'sapp. And secondly your video call and call consume very large amount of mb instead of WhatsApp, yes i know video call quality great in wifi no problem but in mobile data to much problem.

  • goldgautama Gautama (@goldgautama) reported

    Hey @telegram team, why the messages in your app are not encrypted by default? And why not all your code is open? And how do you earn money? Just wondering if I could keep my tg acc or fully migrate to @signalapp and signal only... Please help me make my mind

  • Vikass2409 Vikas Choudhary 🇮🇳 (@Vikass2409) reported

    @signalapp In every picture, I can see chat person's name but why I see again that name with number during chat with every person. That is annoying. Like I open chat of XYZ XYZ opens I see XYZ written on top Now I see XYZ with number in a panel which is annoying. Come on guys, help me.

  • LoneWol52659406 Lone Wolf (@LoneWol52659406) reported

    @twicextall @signalapp @moxie I have the same issues. I'm about to download the source myself and fix it. And then release a build on the play store fixing everything they won't. Just need to find the time.
