@signalapp hi Team I am noticing a delay of message from your app for the past week. The message I receive are not showing up at the time I receive them but they would pop up randomly all at once at a much later time. Please help to investigate as it is quite annoying.

@signalapp @KultureShop Chinese government has blocked all SMS sent from abroad to mainland China. We people living in China can't receive any SMS from abroad. So we can't use signal. Please find a solution to solve this problem.

@Fervent403332 @signalapp If the issue is as serious as you say you should document the problem on their GitHub, or official forums. Spamming them on Twitter is not going to get you the kind of attention you're looking for.

Having issues with sign in, My usual Verification PIN isn't going through which is very odd considering I have been using the same PIN to verify monthly. What could be the issue (No option for Fingerprint login which was working a couple of minutes ago) @signalapp

@signalapp could you please look into the feedback sent a few days ago regarding Signal-iOS slowing down and overheating an iPhone 12? I think it might be caused by frequent network disconnects, but not sure. I would much rather be using Signal than iMessage

@signalapp Hey Team, I'm facing annoying issue. At times i receives messages hour or two later. I've set battery optimization to don't optimize and provides unrestricted background data access specially too, just to avoid this. I even open app and don't receive msgs surprisingly

.@signalapp - I was prompted to update my MAC desktop version. It took me to the full install (re-install) and now won't start - "Optimizing Application" (hanging there). I've tried re-boot and re-install. Still same. Any help?

@Signalapp Please make it so that if somebody doesn't actually have service, the audio call won't play the ringing sound. It's annoying that I'll think somebody is ignoring me when in fact, their phone never rang in the first place because they didn't have servce. #Signal

@signalapp theres an option in signal where i can make messages disappear if I start new conversations only. Why cant messages disappear if people message me and i have it enabled? I dont like the fact how the other user can disable disappearing messages. Fix this! @signalapp

@signalapp I deleted my WhatsApp account this week. Sometimes we need to ask, How much data to we want to give 1 company? Why do we 'accept' for convenience? Why do we allow 1 company to collect data on us when we haven't signed up to that service?

You know what I like about @signalapp? It's inclusive. As long as you have a supported version of Android or iOS it works. It's a party where everyone is invited. I turned off iMessage on my devices because I was tired of a service that worked for half the people I know.
