  • maya_ndljk Maya Nedeljković Batić (@maya_ndljk) reported

    @signalapp after updating to the latest version (5.21.3) on iPhone, I no longer get push notifications until I open the actual app, then they all come in at once. Any way to fix this?

  • zoliky Zoltán Király (@zoliky) reported

    @Aranjedeath @signalapp I agree with you that flatpak sucks in many ways. I remember having issues with the Calibre ebook manager software so I was unable to access my Kindle device to upload custom downloaded EPUBs to it. Flatseal solved the permission issues, though.

  • ShahlaSparkle Shahla Khan (@ShahlaSparkle) reported

    @techguruca @signalapp @WhatsApp Thanks Irfan but pls excuse my ignorance, how do I verify the validity of the message through address bar? Is that where the url goes? The message appeared as soon as I logged in to my Google after the two step verified login.

  • TomCayman Tom McCallum (@TomCayman) reported

    Love @profgalloway email today called CARCINOGENS. The core issue with the Facebook industrial complex is that it is driven by ad dollars and in a toxic way. PS if you want to connect with me, I'm totally accessible, just not via their products (email, phone, @signalapp all good)

    @Aranjedeath @signalapp I remember having issues with the Calibre ebook manager software so I was unable to access my Kindle device to upload custom downloaded EPUBs to it. Flatseal solved the permission issues.

  • zoliky Zoltán Király (@zoliky) reported

    @Aranjedeath @signalapp I agree with you that flatpak sucks in many ways. I remember having issues with the Calibre ebook manager software; it was unable to access my Kindle device so I wasn't be able to upload third-party (non-Amazon) downloaded EPUBs to it. Flatseal solved the issue, though.

  • leonzandman Leon Zandman (@leonzandman) reported

    And @signalapp notifications on iOS are broken again. Only appear when the app is opened. An official response from Signal would be nice.

  • aguswekss aguswekss (@aguswekss) reported

    @signalapp re-login, and lost chat history. 😟

  • planetm34 Dennis (@planetm34) reported

    @signalapp Do you have some issues with push notifications since iOS 15? I am getting the messages only, when I open the app. All notifications are activated for the app as well as the background data. App re-install does not fix the problem.

  • Rajpals94368875 Rajpal singh (@Rajpals94368875) reported

    @signalapp #Signal your voice call and video call are End to end encrypted and messages are End to end encrypted please help me i m confused

  • guneetnarula Guneet Narula (@guneetnarula) reported

    @nanoharsha @signalapp @system76 And what about on an Airtel 4g hotspot? I once had issues with the WiFi router provided by Airtel blocking certain traffic / ports. Had to call them to fix it.

  • AyushAg08326058 Ayush Agarwal (@AyushAg08326058) reported

    @signalapp what happened why server is down again??..

  • chrisdotson Chris Dotson (@chrisdotson) reported

    @KnoxvilleRob @signalapp @telegram Anything that can be secured can be broken. To your point, when a platform gets a large enough user base, they become a target for hackers.

  • nicolasmagand Nicolas Magand (@nicolasmagand) reported

    Following WhatsApp outage, I wonder is @signalapp just says “LOST SIGNAL” when the service is down.

  • naturalis_lex Kevin (@naturalis_lex) reported

    Does anyone using @signalapp have problems with sending txts to people without signal? It seems that several people I know without the app do not receive my txts

  • Timothy1923 the_real_timmy_turner_ (@Timothy1923) reported

    @ifybaby06 Instagram is down, maybe think of joining @signalapp because I'm sure WhatsApp is next

  • jlobster Josh Liebster (@jlobster) reported

    @Dejify @signalapp The FB/WhatsApp outage?

  • FisherGrubb Fisher Grubb🇿🇦🇿🇼 (@FisherGrubb) reported

    @Cheezlethakidd @Snowden @signalapp Nope, use Signal to also manage your SMS messages & problem solved. You have no idea about privacy issues if you think texting & using Signal are the same. Instead, view it as under SMS, all your messages are stored by gov or telco, then can be used to analyse your personality

  • zoliky Zoltán Király (@zoliky) reported

    @Aranjedeath @signalapp I remember having issues with the Calibre book manager so I was unable to access my Kindle device to upload custom downloaded EPUBs to it. Flatseal solved the permission issues.

  • ar_wang CW Ip (@ar_wang) reported

    @TifooFR @lejyby @signalapp I had similar issue, and messages delay also

  • ThornCoyle T. Thorn Coyle (@ThornCoyle) reported

    Hey @signalapp, can you please stop announcing “so and so is on Signal”? It’s a terrible feature for so many reasons.

  • guneetnarula Guneet Narula (@guneetnarula) reported

    @nanoharsha @signalapp @system76 I have signal on popOS. Runs pretty well, haven't seen this issue. Is it with multiple ISPs?

  • spine_ta Curious Caesar 🏁 (@spine_ta) reported

    @BBCWorld Many of my contacts have joined @signalapp and/or @telegram since the six hour outage. Facebook got too big for its own good, greed ruins everything.

  • KaConfessor king Keith (@KaConfessor) reported

    Is @signalapp down?

  • Ian_Fraser Ian Fraser (@Ian_Fraser) reported

    @robaeprice @signalapp Yes I’m finding this. Tried to fix via settings etc. but without success.

  • ifybaby06 FLOSSY 💦💦💦 (@ifybaby06) reported

    @Timothy1923 @signalapp I don't want to think of WhatsApp having issue over the weekend

  • nyanyanyaandnya nya (@nyanyanyaandnya) reported

    @ThornCoyle @j_m_maius @signalapp Terrible opsec, but I love watching my lib contacts add signal after a big protest

  • leonzandman Leon Zandman (@leonzandman) reported

    Strange. Since a few hours @signalapp notification seem broken. They only appear after opening the app.

  • thesystem Zack Shure (@thesystem) reported

    @signalapp your notifications on iOS 15 are still broken, also after the last update.

  • BataMuka BataMuka (@BataMuka) reported

    @signalapp is the service down? Messages can’t be send… 😩
