@signalapp When I try to login to my account it says "Too many attempts were made it register this device. Try again later". Please help me recover my account @signalapp

@signalapp @mer__edith By "please fix this asap."I mean in general, as you don't have my ticket details of course. Use some intelligence when locking out numbers. Maybe send a text to inform and advise on how to register number again? Maybe some form of text verification of user/number?

@signalapp @mer__edith Create a fast process for getting a locked out number re-registered asap. It is ridiculous to leave a user without Signal service for hrs/days (who knows how long since you don't provide a timeframe), especially long-time multi-year users. Do better.

@kurtopsahl @signalapp That this was published shows incompetence by the NYT editorial staff. They let somebody who doesn't know he doesn't understand the issues say something about those issues.

Hey @signalapp I got in trouble with my gf because of a bug in read notifications. My gf had sent me a couple of messages, which I didn't look at because my phone was on silent. She then calls me through signal which I also missed, but...

@marknoble @kumarsalib @signalapp You're simply wrong by definition. My phone's stock SMS app is broken even after factory reset. Using signal for those few messages I can at least avoid buying the next Big Garbage Phone.

@signalapp Can you please fix how searches work? If I search for "John Smith", I see results for all messages containing "John" and/or "Smith". WHY?? At least let me use quotes to combine the words when I search. That's how Google searches work.

@marknoble @TerryCameronBC @signalapp It's only the right thing to do if you incorrectly assume that your service is so valuable and unique that you can force *everyone* to change their behavior by removing some of your service offerings. News flash: this has never worked.

@mer__edith I hope you can answer my concern. Since yesterday I try to register again at @signalapp and I never get the activation code, I waited a considerable time and I don't get the code by SMS either, is access to @signalapp blocked in Cuba or is it some temporary error?

@HadrianIsTaken @TerryCameronBC @signalapp Do people who have internet access but no cellular telephone service also need SMS which is a cellular only technology?

@signalapp @mer__edith Moved Signal from old to new phone. Had some issues, had to re-install app a few times. My number got locked out for unknown period (been ~14 hrs), too many registration attempts 5+ years using Signal with my number. Ridiculous - please fix this asap.

@signalapp Man I want to donate but unfortunately it's a little bit hard to do it from my country. Let me check another way to do that. But thank you for your service and please keep up the good work.

@marknoble @TerryCameronBC @signalapp Also, most of the world doesn't have ubiquitous internet access via public Wi-Fi, they get it via mobile service. A lot of toast places already use #WhatsApp though, so it doesn't really affect the ability to switch to #Signal.

@jsrailton My rights aren't up for a vote. @signalapp is offering a service that defends my right to privacy. Anyone can use the source code freely, including to self-host the service for even greater freedom. I'd like to see the government equivalent of that from this 🤡

@jsrailton @signalapp That lock won’t stop someone with a search warrant. Nor would help much in a might-is-right society with no laws.

@marknoble @TerryCameronBC @signalapp I understand what you mean but the problem is that everyone still need a SMS client. So for digital minimalist they like Signal because it can also be their default sms app so they can delete the dump default one. The problem is, this move is non-needed and username is......
