  • ambimorph L. Amber O'Hearn 🛡 (@ambimorph) reported

    I'm having a usability problem with @signalapp that just bit me for the third time. Signal is my default texting app and it has the very nice behaviour that if the recipient has Signal, the message is sent encrypted, and if they don't, it falls back to SMS. However, 1/6

  • 20Sonu21 Sonu (@20Sonu21) reported

    @signalapp Hi there, After the latest Android update. Battery is draining crazy. Kindly fix this issue.

  • Mrhow7x Sundeep (@Mrhow7x) reported

    @signalapp When video calling using phone horizontal turn video upsidedown. Please fix this bug.

  • inxs_ar InXCes (@inxs_ar) reported

    Thank you @signalapp for working on the problem with the Argentina numbers (+54 and +549), it happens since I use your app. Yesterday more than 40 users were added to my contact list, and it is no coincidence that they all entered together.

  • thecongjen # 𝙲𝚘𝚗𝚐 𝙹𝚎𝚗 黄琮政 (@thecongjen) reported

    @signalapp down? cannot send/receive message #signaldown

  • MichaelRostom Michael Rostom (@MichaelRostom) reported

    @StanvHouten @signalapp No, the error message clearly says: "The owner of this website has blocked your IP" it is probably not Signal, it is the merch company that they are working with And yes I do live in Syria

  • thecongjen # 𝙲𝚘𝚗𝚐 𝙹𝚎𝚗 黄琮政 (@thecongjen) reported

    @hazda___ @signalapp Same here using TIME. Possible TIME issue

  • JessicaLRohlik Jess Rohlik (@JessicaLRohlik) reported

    📱Question… I used to use the @signalapp to video chat with my niece, but I hated it and deleted the app. Problem is, now when I text her, she’ll get my normal texts, but I don’t get any of her replies. Anyone know how to resolve this?? I’d really like to text w/that kid

  • Agisilaos_K Agisilaos Koulouris✊🏾🌍 (@Agisilaos_K) reported

    @di0v0n @signalapp Also the pin feature doesn't help if someone's phone gets hacked

  • RavT3 Rav Takhar (@RavT3) reported

    @signalapp are you guys ever going to take a look at the bug with conversations not pulling down automatically? Has been reported on GitHub, community forum, reddit and support team has been emailed along with logs. Has been open for over a year!

  • thecongjen # 𝙲𝚘𝚗𝚐 𝙹𝚎𝚗 黄琮政 (@thecongjen) reported

    @hazda___ @signalapp I switched off wifi immediately work with my mobile data. Thanks. Thought @signalapp went down.

  • paulvixie Paul Vixie (@paulvixie) reported

    @ChrisGrundemann @signalapp any app which duplicates a service you could reach from your web browser should be suspect. such apps can bypass privacy and security controls in your web browser. case by case, ask "why does this app help its maker since they also have a usable web site?"

  • prem82528 Prem Bhati (@prem82528) reported

    @signalapp download very good app What's app again and again shutting down @WhatsApp unstall very soon

  • frodobutbi littlelizardman (bi) (@frodobutbi) reported

    @signalapp I keep trying to confirm my number and getting an error that says “(402) payment required” - what’s up with that?

  • RyanWaheed Ryan Waheed (@RyanWaheed) reported

    @signalapp The new update is creating an annoying glitch. When I exit a chat to my main signal menu, then back to the chat, it goes further back in the history of the chat. And when I click my keyboard to enter a message it covers what I recently viewed, I have to keep scrolling.

  • GoblinInAJacket Goblin Inajacket (@GoblinInAJacket) reported

    @muchnerve @signalapp you do get broken mms messages sometimes and then it keeps resending them to you every 12 hours for a week, still broken every time.

  • Hosseini_ST Hosseini 🇮🇷 (@Hosseini_ST) reported

    @mmrabbani @signalapp Unfortunately I have still the problem. I can't get the code in Iran and @signalapp don't give any answer to us!

  • WhotThaFawk 🇳🇬🇺🇸 (@WhotThaFawk) reported

    @signalapp Not complaining about the price or shipping fee. The logo is just no where to be found. Fix this and I'm sure more users will buy.

  • HobbitsWife Hobbits Wife 💙 (@HobbitsWife) reported

    @signalapp parents and brother on Android and are having problems receiving notifications when they have messages so keep missing them. Working fine on iPhone. Any bugs logged for this?

  • SiliconShecky Shecky - The Unknown (((Mike))) (@SiliconShecky) reported

    @cillic @youngd241 @signalapp The show them how, write them instead of public, and tell them technically based on their code how without breaking their system. Their blog flat out states they want a better solution and want people to help. I don't have the tech chops to do that.

  • GehaniNeil Product Advisor to #Startups (@GehaniNeil) reported

    .@WhatsApp - do you have security and #privacy problems going on? I am getting added to random groups with people I have no connection to. More people of my chats live on @signalapp now.

  • JeanineDijkhuis Jeanine Dijkhuis (@JeanineDijkhuis) reported from Broekhuizen, Provincie Utrecht

    Hi @signalapp, I'm experiencing some problems since the last update. Especially the lack of notifications is annoying. Sounds familiar to you or other tweeps?

  • abdulahi_abdi2 Abdulahi (@abdulahi_abdi2) reported from Nairobi, Nairobi

    Anyone else having trouble making calls via @signalapp ??

  • DustVoice DustVoice (@DustVoice) reported

    @signalapp My app isn't working since a few hours ago. Im seeing fragments of the UI, e.g. search icon, but then the app crashes with a black screen and closes itself. Restart & cache deletion didn't yield any results and I'm yet hesitant to reinstall. Is this a known issue atm?

  • DanielM50659243 Daniel M (@DanielM50659243) reported

    @signalapp Restoring a backup is extremely buggy. Sometimes it'll count up messages found after I enter my passphrase, then crashes. Sometimes it'll not even allow me to enter my passphrase after I select my backup file, and skip to entering my phone number. Help would be great!

  • sphinx568 Reese (@sphinx568) reported

    @Goss_Gowtham @signalapp @telegram That sounds intriguing. The problem is the fact that people I want to communicate with do not use it, thus negating its usefulness in this instance.

  • agisilaosts Agis Tsaraboulidis (@agisilaosts) reported

    The issue with notifications not being sent without opening @signalapp was driving me insane. You needed to open the app for the notification to appear. I’m glad such issue has been fixed.

  • CosmoMeadow María says: Hold your breath (@CosmoMeadow) reported

    Is @signalapp down?

  • SocialSkywalker Luke M (@SocialSkywalker) reported

    @Casey Solve two problems. Protect your privacy at the same time. Convince them all to use @signalapp

  • kzBh5 kzBh (@kzBh5) reported

    @Agisilaos_K @di0v0n @signalapp Wait what? What do you mean it doesn't help? If someone phone gets hacked they only have access to the phone and not the pin inside the app no or the locked app? Therefore if you have different pin/password it should block anyone from accessing it?
