-
Tallulah van der Made (@tallulahlucy) reported@DanielBron11 @signalapp I think they're cracking down on deepfake in general. There are so many rules. All 3 ad accounts I run were banned recently for bizarre reasons. One was suspended 2x. (Bitly link, deleting expired credit card, using the word "alternative", and one I'm still trying to figure out!)
-
eureka (@eureka2927) reported@signalapp I keep getting a message from “Amazon Request” and it says a gift is waiting for you. Which I am pretty sure is a spam. Happened thrice in the last 3 months. Can you fix that please?
-
Carlos Mota Liranzo (@CarlosMot) reported@signalapp what's happening whit the app , is not working since 3:00 pm
-
मिहिर मिश्र (@_mihirmishr) reported@mynameis_kayak @Akshay_Pathak1 @signalapp I haven't tried Karma, maybe it's their server's problem or something I've suggested other sites in the link. Try those, if you are only interested in Karma, then support them by contributing in their code or financially.
-
Daniel Lo Nigro (@Daniel15) reported@signalapp Did you click "see details" and actually see why the ad account was shut down? It might be some totally different reason. Also these ads would definitely be in violation of the 20% text rule.
-
Kendré (@Kendr90124388) reported@signalapp That's cool all! But when are you guys gonna fix the delay issues with sending and receiving messages? Sometimes I just be receiving messages that was sent 30 mins ago and I use @signalapp as my main texting app. Please fix this issue and add more features!
-
Sandra Martins ♥️ (@mc_matt10902) reported@signalapp @Kantrowitz Hi, I had similar issue too, Contact a professional hacker to help you out, BIANCA_HACKS ON INSTAGRAM or contact her on Whatsapp via +1 (346) 289-2988. She'll recover your hacked or disabled Facebook or Instagram.

-
ClayHammerBeats (@ClayHammerBeats) reported@SetheChosenOne @DuckDuckGo @signalapp That doesn't change the danger. If it can be accessed, it's a problem. People need to know what's possible.
-
1Fox & Toutologisme (@FRG2M) reported@chiwawa_42 I do too... have some issues with @signalapp ... stops sending SMS (but still works with Signal messages), impossible to detect, but the lack of expected replies. Only solution found yet is to reboot the phone (S9+) and flush all the SS at once.. /e/ pb or Signal Pb ? ;-)
-
Jade Sharp (@jadesharp1992) reported@signalapp it's very difficult to find the send button, because voiceover does not read anything out, so if you could please fix this, a lot of your blind and visually impaired user base would be very greatful!
-
wahid واحد (@c_me66) reported@signalapp why are you not on TikTok, it will really help to promote signal, I made a number of people to download signal coz of a TikTok video. Get on TikTok now!
-

Icon Jessica (@Icon0234) reported@Sourcenew @signalapp The only way you can fix your account don't delay to contact @mikelhack3 for account fixed or contact him on whatsapp 👉 +13172966488
-
BitOfDoge (@BitOfDoge) reported@naomibrockwell @signalapp @moxie The problem with the video is that I was more focused on you than on your doge t-shirt. Just. Not. Right. ;) Another great video. Thank you :) what are your thoughts on Kaspersky antivirus? It does help to delete info. Any catch?
-
negrone (@negrone) reported@signalapp app no longer opening after latest beta update. On Samsung s21. This a known issue? Can't even get in to back up so I can reinstall.
-
Michele (@MischiMaya) reported@signalapp my app is suddenly crashing every time I try to open it. Tried restarting phone, force closed app. Nothing worked. If I uninstall will I lose my messages? I have a new message I can't read bc of the crashing issue.
-
Intalik Jalál Milne (@intalik) reported@signalapp there are problems with the video functionality of your app on Android. Video chats lag and drop making it unusable. FYI
-
Nick Stevens | Making Business Better (@Clogish) reported@Savage2288 @DuckDuckGo @signalapp You don't have to read code to have an opinion, or information about how. The IP address issue, is an example of "how". But now I have to trust you, trusting someone else, and that's not how we convince people. Evidence does that.
-
vT15” (@t15_v) reported@guyrleech @signalapp Did you dump process before killing action ? Dev team should check it and fix - it seems to be memory leak…
-
Christian (@_christianost) reported@signalapp Some updates on this issue: I just installed the newest update I got in the meantime via the PlayStore (I'm a beta tester, the displayed version is 5.10.6) and now the app is directly crashing after startup, after I can see the list of messages for less than a second :/
-
Gotalive (@Degreez400) reported@brian_armstrong @moxie @signalapp Stock price will never be as high as it was opening day. You're way too big for your britches get some customer service!
-
Phoenix (@PhoenixxSh00des) reported@signalapp giphy searching is still broken in 5.9.7
-
BitOfDoge (@BitOfDoge) reported@naomibrockwell @signalapp @moxie Thanks for letting me know. A lot of people use antivirus and given that you waive all-out rights when you install it, I wonder how long it will.take till we have an issue with one of those. Best,
-
Nathan Davies (@NDavies_02) reported@DuckDuckGo @signalapp Only one problem - getting friends and family to use it. People stick with WhatsApp and the like because it's convenient unfortunately.
-
Laura Gardner (@_laura_gardner_) reported@signalapp Since the update, gifs I send in the app are just showing as static pictures. Little help?
-
Wes Finley (@wesblog) reported@TheVaibhavShrma @signalapp They give you a service for free. You can even choose not to provide any personal info and still use their free services. However, the value of using Facebook and Google is greatly diminished without personal preferences and connections.
-
Jade Sharp (@jadesharp1992) reported@signalapp hi, any plans to fix voiceover when you lock the recording on a voice message? You completely lose voiceovers audio, and it's very frustrating!
-
WF-AJEBOR07 (@Ajebor07Wf) reported@Sourcenew @signalapp Contacting their support is totally pointless cause they’re not going to reply I had the same experience with my account I had it resolved with the help of SuperCyber_tech on Instagram within some minutes. They are fast and reliable.

Jodie Kendrick (@Jodethetoad1) reported@WhichUK This happened to me in January and I have not been able to reinstate my WhatsApp account since. @wa_status have ZERO customer service, and despite me sharing screenshots of the scam, they will not reactivate my account. Dreadful service. Switched to @signalapp
