As much as I love @signalapp, they really need to fix their desktop app. A lot of time it just doesn’t load itself or doesn’t load the messages correctly. Hoping they sort it out soon.

1000+ Group member, @signalapp I think large the group is leads misuse of app like fb and other other service. None talks to not more than 50 or 100 members in year through messages whom share their personal or work phone number with.

@signalapp You have completely ruined Signal with this new color update. It is a terrible UI and I hope to find a different communication app. It makes threads with multiple people completely unusable. It also makes my personal threads far less readable.

@signalapp is there a way to reverse this color change? Like why after years of having the received bubbles colored would you just switch? Plus now group chat members are harder to distinguish from one another. This seems intentionally confusing. Help?

@signalapp The privacy is nice and all that but the server problems and the delay of sending messages is AWFUL. If this continues I will have to switch to a different Messenger. I can't have my messages arrive 30 minutes later!

@signalapp I noticed even when the "seen" option is turned off, if I'm watching the chat I can see when someone has read the messages. the chat shifts slightly when it happens. you might wanna fix it because it defeats the whole purpose of having it off

Hey @signalapp, I have a doubt, (Case 1) If a person cleared data or uninstalled the signal app. On re-login, Could the messages still be retrieved, if the password is forgotten?

@signalapp Is anyone knowing a lot about apps here? Could this work? To fix the problems with Android @Signalapp notifications they could create a mechanism to keep the app awake sending a code to a server every 10mins. It will fix battery optimisations apps. Am I right?
