    @whatsabschalten @signalapp Stranger still, I can register my number just find on an old iPhone 7 running iOS14 but my iPhone 13 running iOS15 gives the error. Not sure if its iOS15 or the hardware.

  • the_flash2017 olyma (@the_flash2017) reported

    Ugh @signalapp is so annoying. Now all my messages aren't going through even though my friend's messages are coming in. It's clearly not my internet then what's the problem. Been like this since yesterday.

  • 0xMadness 0xMadness de’ Medici @62 (@0xMadness) reported

    @signalapp FIX YOUR TERRIBLE MOBILE APP. EVERYONE IS STARTING TO HATE YOUR APP. ITS BEEN 2+ MONTHS.

  • indutny indutny (@indutny) reported

    @JakubBoucek @signalapp Hello! Signal Desktop developer here. Really sorry you this happen so frequently! If you will ever run into this issue again, would you mind clicking "View > Debug Log" on the top of your screen, and then "Submit" at the bottom of the window. 1/2

  • derellgeide Derell Geide (@derellgeide) reported

    @signalapp Hi @signalapp. I've been receiving some voice messages lately that I cannot open. The refresh/reload (circular arrow) does nothing when pressed. iOS. Please help. Thank you. #donated

  • Calabreez Peter (@Calabreez) reported

  • Thornbark Andrei Cucea (@Thornbark) reported

    @signalapp People trying to transfer an account to a new phone also encounter issues.

  • JNitterauer Jim Nitterauer (@JNitterauer) reported

    Just saw an @WhatsApp TV commercial touting the virtues of its encrypted message delivery. Does @Meta really think the world is foolish enough to trust them to encrypt & protect their messages? Come on! Solve the problem & use @signalapp & be 100% sure!

  • rtr_assassin Igor K (@rtr_assassin) reported

    @samtupy Interesting, though WhatsApp is still functionally separate from the main Facebook app and service. I prefer @Telegram and @signalapp to #WhatsApp anyway and only use it because not enough people have switched away from it.

  • GrayanOne GrayanOne (@GrayanOne) reported

    @signalapp, can't link new device, fails with: SignalServiceKit.NetworkManagerError error 409. Some advice would be greatly appreciated.

  • wvmntnmama__ s a r a h 🌑 (@wvmntnmama__) reported

    @signalapp won’t accept my pin, saying I have no network connectivity when I am, indeed, connected. Please help, @signalapp.

  • iriemember IrieMember (@iriemember) reported

    @signalapp Hey @signalapp peeps, always enjoyed your service, but because of this issue - I lost all my conversations. Reset iPhone, try to snap from iPad. Now erverything is lost.

  • prcfinch Harold Finch (@prcfinch) reported

    @signalapp The mainland China can not login to the app, I can’t receive the verify message or voicemail. So I think the gov just block the sms or voice service from signal. Any other way to login my account?

  • julianwachholz Julian Wachholz (@julianwachholz) reported

    @signalapp if only you could fix my supporter badge that vanished hours after payment

  • royyeo_ Roy Yeo (@royyeo_) reported

    @signalapp I'm trying to delete my Signal account under "Delete account", not working either. I keep getting the "Account Not Deleted" message. "There was a problem completing the deletion process. Check your network connection and try again".

  • Anmaril Christian Müller 🌿 (@Anmaril) reported

    @signalapp Finally want to start to use the app but cannot register an account, like, at all. The app refuses to connect to some sort of service it needs. Tried everything I can find online, to no avail.

  • Capta1nCha0s Hyperduck:23 (@Capta1nCha0s) reported

    @Thornbark @signalapp I can second this, got the pop-up 'error connecting to service' & a constant spinning circle when trying to enter my PIN.

  • airwolf85 Wilf K 🇬🇧 🇨🇦 (@airwolf85) reported

    @jimio @signalapp Hi Team! Any further news on resolving this issue?

  • sebkinne Sebastian Kinne (@sebkinne) reported

    Hey @signalapp are there any issues with registrations at the moment? I can't transfer my account - the app times out when I enter the code. An incorrect code is rejected immediately.

  • ronulld Ronald (@ronulld) reported

    Hey @signalapp. Looks like PIN creation is broken on iOS. It is stuck on the "Creating PIN" screen.

  • airwolf85 Wilf K 🇬🇧 🇨🇦 (@airwolf85) reported

    Hey @signalapp!! Is your service (or your servers) down?? I can't register my cellphone number...even after waiting the requested 5 min. And that's after a new install.

  • 2b_ghost Ghost (@2b_ghost) reported

    @signalapp Custom notifications not working

  • gtr_235 George-Robert 🔺 (@gtr_235) reported

    @darioangelo @signalapp This! I have this problem like...forever. And it doesn't happen all the time.

  • plink212 Tim D Jordan (@plink212) reported

    @signalapp Aware of any MMS issues in the beta? Mine stopped working after 31st Jan

  • mainlyrock mainlyrock (@mainlyrock) reported

    It seems like the latest iPhone @signalapp update has removed my profile picture. Not a huge problem, but maybe this could be fixed

  • l0calguest localguest (@l0calguest) reported

    Signal @signalapp down?

  • BasJanssen18 Bas Janssen (@BasJanssen18) reported

    @signalapp That’s just the government hacking your service. Nothing to worry about 🤔
