    @signalapp please fix the link preview issue atleast in the version of the app. Last two beta updates it's broken

  • fikrhmn F (@fikrhmn) reported

    dear @telegram and @signalapp, would you please stop spamming my inbox notifying that someone in my contacts is joining the service? couldn't find the options to turn it off. it not so annoying when there are only small number of people joining, but lately it's become annoying.

  • SreyanshDhariwa Sreyansh Dhariwal 🇮🇳 (@SreyanshDhariwa) reported

    @signalapp same notification comes 3 times to me when someone reacte to my message . Please fix this bug it is very irritating.

  • tphlat t♭ (@tphlat) reported

    Hey @telegram please enable secret chat/expiring messages on MacOS desktop. The excuse from your help center that "only 2% of people use it" just makes you not competitive with @signalapp for people who are actually concerned with privacy.

  • CryptoSchaef CryptoSchaef 🇺🇸 (@CryptoSchaef) reported

    @signalapp I’d like to help beta test. How can I sign up?

  • iamSahithyan Sahithyan (@iamSahithyan) reported

    @signalapp Problems I have with Signal, 1. Not so many people use it. Only 6 of my contacts have @signalapp. 2. No web app. with WhatsApp, I can just open a web app and start using it. 3. No statuses. It's not a problem for me; but for my friends.

  • YJerrell5 YJerrell (@YJerrell5) reported

    @signalapp I'm having issues with not receiving text messages from other numbers. Anybody else seeing this?

  • Arshamaria1 آرش کمانگیر (@Arshamaria1) reported

    @signalapp Signal messenger has many problems. Add message editing. There is no two-way deletion of the message. I can not put the story in the profile. No channel creation. It does not have a good program, design and user interface

  • vivekm13 VM (@vivekm13) reported

    @signalapp I always have issues uploading video clips to individuals or groups even after multiple tries it fails. Is there an issue?

  • andrebergvall André Bergvall (@andrebergvall) reported

    @CJRealVibes @felicilda11 @signalapp I am so confused about this, I use WhatsApp and Signal as a messaging apps, not social media platform. What do you mean when you say that you use it for social media? For what purpose does having a status help a business? (I'm also in the start of a life as a business owner...)

  • otaku_always_ Amit Dhariwal (@otaku_always_) reported

    @SreyanshDhariwa @signalapp @COMRADE_Ani fix this

  • Noms2000 Noms 2000 (@Noms2000) reported

    @signalapp Are there still issues? Messages I send are hanging (circle whirling round), and pictures I sent days ago are still whirling and haven’t been delivered

  • TheMarwariBuoy Ankit Agarwal (@TheMarwariBuoy) reported from Guwahati, Assam

    Keeping aside the privacy issue,Signal is what WhatsApp used to be when it was launched. Minimalistic design,a proper messaging service.@signalapp @WhatsApp #SignalApp #signalkarna

  • DraganTventi TWENTY-D (@DraganTventi) reported

    @signalapp @signalapp I just hope you’ll fix everything especially video call ring notification because it’s only vibrating no ringing

  • missylissyloo Mel (@missylissyloo) reported

    @joshuajames @signalapp @telegram I’ve noticed the same - the only issue is people don’t appear to deleting other apps and now my mother is messaging me on five different platforms...

  • n0sign4l Leonardo Porpora (@n0sign4l) reported

    @emirrasouli @signalapp Remember that being a beta tester means that you may encounter some bugs (like app crash etc.), make sure that is not a problem for you.

  • noalias noalias (@noalias) reported

    @signalapp there’s some problems with sharing to Signal in iOS you have to share twice before the app shows up in the list of apps

  • smallmausu smallmausu (@smallmausu) reported

    @vipin_patial @signalapp It's changing its privacy policy everywhere which is why there was an enormous outage as essentially the whole of europe and the US dumped WhatsApps sorry ***. I've been trying to get friends to drop WhatsApp globally since starting to using signal many tech moons ago.

  • CJRealVibes Real Vibes™Follows You💯 (@CJRealVibes) reported

    @NailuJay @signalapp @SuttaDost What feature are you disabling again? What's your problem?? You don't want to see who has Viewed a message? Please don't come here making silly demands.!

  • TheKarmiDance Karmolade (@TheKarmiDance) reported

    @daphnetoli @signalapp @wa_status That’s what I was hoping for. I have a very long email exchange saved w/ Instagram where I’m basically pleading with them to stop replying with templates and take some action. I even copied their own terms of service that were being violated: nothing.

  • SteveCCY Steve (@SteveCCY) reported

    @signalapp Good news. Hope Signals can complete with WhatsApp and break down the monopoly market of instant message.

  • GM_Investor Radical Investor ™🇮🇳 (@GM_Investor) reported

    @signalapp Few other suggestions.. 📍Deleting multiple chats at one shot 📍 Notifications are delayed. Needs a fix 📍chat Backup into cloud 📍Status/story (optional) 📍Have a team to listen for suggestions

  • BozaJoza 🎭Jóža🇪🇺Bóža😷 (@BozaJoza) reported

    @fourk_ @Cyb3rGh @signalapp I don't know much about this, but the "last login" date is like one of the only three pieces of information stored on Signal's servers (the others are the phone number and the time of registration). So if you mind that, you should know that it's already stored.

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

    @b_antunes @signalapp No, what kind of problems do you have?

  • cheenikamchai Neha (@cheenikamchai) reported

    @signalapp ???? No response & no solution. Still facing the same issue

  • ScouseNotEnglsh ScouseNotEnglish (@ScouseNotEnglsh) reported

    @signalapp Made the switch, i like my privacy, FB, MZ took it as a toy. I will continue with @signal coz its legit safe n secure. Anythin else is jus askin for trouble

  • upsetpatriot1 Communist LitterTwi tter (@upsetpatriot1) reported

    @signalapp Have you fixed the issue where the group calls don’t notify people using continuous ring but just a tone..

  • ZafferM Zaf (@ZafferM) reported

    Unable to install @signalapp on a different handset as I prefer keeping it isolated from the phone with the SIM but not getting past the telephone number screen. Not getting any SMS not the screen updates any further. Is that a feature or some other issue.

  • wedelapan W8 (@wedelapan) reported

    @signalapp My friend with Android 6 can't fix it. We did follow the steps but still can't, the message still delay 🙏

  • nrjbhusal Niraj Bhusal (@nrjbhusal) reported
