    @signalapp Military-grade encryption. Zero infrastructure compromises. And then: “Hi, this is Signal Support Bot, please confirm your verification code.” The math was never the problem.

    The issue here, isn't marketshare, like in the case of WhatsApp vs @signalapp

  • ShaswotNepal

    @signalapp @404mediaco SMS Provider is down for Nepal. i am unable to log in to new device. fix it ASAP.

    青い夜の記憶 (@XBMXYW) reported

    @signalapp When will Google and Apple's passkey login be supported? Both telegram and wechat next door have been supported, and it comes from the loyal appeal of an advanced user who supports signal software development every month.

    Currently stuck in a Captcha loop nightmare on @signalapp because I created a new group chat with new contacts, whom I sent a DM to first before adding to the group. I tell myself it's OK as it means protection and security are working on Signal.... but HELP. 💀🛡

    @callebtc @signalapp @smspoolnet even tho i dislike the titan, port your number to Google Voice for $10 then keep the free service. only problem is it registers as VoiP so doesn't always authenticate as a true phone number. but it verifies with Signal

    @smspoolnet @callebtc @signalapp instead of apologising fix the system with better security

    @phillipstewart @signalapp This is a standard setting on every messaging app, and Apple fixed the issue of caching them. It was never a security flaw with Signal.

    @signalapp Is it just to remain connected while 80 million Iranians are silenced? Please help them, however you can. #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran

  • aw_nz
    Andrew W 🥝 (@aw_nz) reported

    @0xPhilH @vonderburchard @signalapp The users got hacked, not Signal. If those users' Signal accounts hadn't been phished, it's likely at some point in the near future those same users' accounts on some other service would be phished as the same vulnerable point of entry (the user themselves) remains.

  • Dancinfoxy
    Foxy⚔️ (@Dancinfoxy) reported

    @signalapp What if your family was silenced by a government? Iranians are being killed in the dark, unable to call for help. You have the power to help. Will you stand with them? #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran

    @signalapp @404mediaco Not sure the main problem about notifications is solved

  • KelpalotsNet
    that stupid pleiadeas Kelpalots // Asperger's 🌟 (@KelpalotsNet) reported

    @signalapp These code nightmares are exactly what I might have a problem with, to every company. Hackers use more than computers to steal the codes and then make them unviable before usage. @Google A lot of code numbers went to me, but were not useable during the timeframe. They also tried to get past my brick my password trick. I'm thinking that the three enemies I have are a tad bit more than three, and there is one other one who throws valueable hardware into a single vat, just to cause pollution and degrade reality [hardware]. Their main goal was to make every single number code unuseable. Including auth timed numbers. That is all.

    @ProtonPrivacy My main issue with @signalapp is I cannot use the same account on more than one smartphone

  • NCyotee
    not_cyotee (@NCyotee) reported

    @aaron0v @signalapp Simple, Signal controls your keys, and the app delivery lifecycle. Yes, it is OS, and anyone can compile and run it. For now. They systematically shut down any popular alternate builds. And they obfuscate the compiled code. You have to use their servers, so at any point they can change the underlying behavior by pushing and update. And the simple fact, if they can recover your key for you, you have no guarantee they can't recover your key for themselves. Matrix allows any client. You control your key. No recovery. If you lose your key, you lose access to all your old messages.

    @octal @signalapp I have dozens of gigs of space on my iPhone, but it did flash a storage issue just before crashing

    @marchofer @signalapp Not so fast. There's a Signal issue here.

    @signalapp Rule of the internet: If someone asks for your verification code, they’re trying to steal your account. No legit service will ever ask for it. Stay sharp.

  • Tree_0flife

    @manasiwibi @signalapp Yes. It's still a problem. Hallo? Can you fix it signal?

  • grok
    Grok (@grok) reported

    @giyasibrahim @signalapp Signal requires a phone number for signup (not email) so users can instantly discover friends from their phone's address book, and to limit spam—bulk numbers cost more/time than free emails. Usernames (since 2024) let you chat without sharing your number, but registration still needs one. Email wouldn't fix abuse or social graph issues as well.

  • SantiagoPliego

    TIL if your iPhone storage is almost full, Signal bricks itself. Make your backups, folks. (Also, @signalapp please fix!)

  • by_inkriya
    जनित्र (@by_inkriya) reported

    @signalapp hello there, do you know if anyone with Indonesian phone number (+62 code) having trouble installing your app? We suspect that our provider somehow blocking your verification message, some friends got registration problem and can not continue the installing process.

    @monitalan @signalapp Sure, when there's a problem, definitely solutions will come

    @dedelaugesen @signalapp no that's the app trying to help you remember your pin through spaced repetition. if that gets annoying pretty sure you could turn it off in settings the recent phishing campaigns are different to what you mention

    @signalapp Has the quality improved too? I video call regularly & quality is v. ordinary. Audio cuts out all the time when the remote person is speaking & the mic detects sound locally. Switching to FaceTime is like going from SD to HD, & no sound issues.

    @signalapp That’s some terrible grammar right there.

    @signalapp In Tehran right now, silence is deadly. Without internet, cries for help are muted. Please, use your influence to help break the silence. Iranians will remember who stood with them #DigitalBlackOutIran #IranRevolution2026

    @signalapp I would argue that that's more of a people-being-naive issue than anything Signal as a company could control
