  • mrdominax Mr Dominax (@mrdominax) reported

    @bajabanjo @Snowden @signalapp Do you know everything about the backend of every service you use? Get real.

  • GuruJation GuruJ (@GuruJation) reported

    @Snowden I like the idea of @signalapp and what it represents. But surely it still suffers the problem of all major 21st century Internet apps of being a single point of failure? How long until it "accidentally" gets a DoS attack because a government decides it is too risky to leave up?

  • RaisahAhmed Raisah Ahmed (@RaisahAhmed) reported

    @signalapp my desktop app and phone app aren't completely syncing. When I send messages from my desktop they don't show in the chat history on the phone app - do you have a way to fix this?

  • sm5mohamed Mohamed Sadiq (@sm5mohamed) reported

    @signalapp Hi its not working for International video calls and voice calls

  • Athin52985589 Athin (@Athin52985589) reported

    @signalapp Signal video call is not up to mark with whatsapp. I can hear my voice echoing. Could you please fix it.

  • its_babez 𝙼𝚢 𝙽𝚊𝚖𝚎 𝙸𝚜...... (@its_babez) reported

    @djSTICKYBUDS @kingmunchie3rd @signalapp Then I don’t know what that means. Help me understand please. Normal text messages??? Or maybe I should download on android so I could understand better. How is that possible if I may ask?

  • MahamoudShaikh Mahamoud Shaikh (@MahamoudShaikh) reported from Al Farwānīyah, Muḩāfaz̧at al Farwānīyah

    @signalapp if the messages send from desktop version, I cannot see it in my mobile application please fix this as soon as possible.

  • jgdeshpande2008 Jayant G. Deshpande (@jgdeshpande2008) reported

    @signalapp Recently removing Whatsapp I downloaded Signal and created account.Sent messages very well received by friends. But images,mms sent failed many times.Many observed such glitches. There are many errors and shortcomings in Signal,at present...(1/2)..

  • kbsingh Karanbir Singh (@kbsingh) reported

    @jwildeboer @JvJean1971 @signalapp S/incompetent/ human error, system fails, social hijack, upstream /downstream compromise etc etc.. the many ways that data and privacy are lost to unmoderated and uncontrollable players.

  • Jacob69606553 Jacob (@Jacob69606553) reported

    @signalapp I started facing an issue with the Signal Android application. Messages are slowly sent without apparent reason (network quality is good and other applications works just fine).

  • Maniacbolts Manny (@Maniacbolts) reported

    @raptorzghost @signalapp thats terrible for privacy.

  • WafHeikal Wafaa Heikal وفاء (@WafHeikal) reported

    @hamzattar @signalapp I totally agree with you and so far don't think that Signal actually has a misinformation problem, maybe in the future we can reasses this. I know that there's attempts for factchecking efforts in encrypted networks. Need to follow on such research

  • HonestCitizen1 مؤذن الخرابه (@HonestCitizen1) reported

    @JonyCButler @Snowden @signalapp .... I am sorry I didn't take your word for it. If you have no problem exposing your life to total strangers, use all the Facebook that you want. Then again, there are people who have no problem posting their **** pictures publicly for free. To each his own I guess

  • kundankumar01 Kundan Kr. Singh (@kundankumar01) reported

    @signalapp plz check, messages are not getting synced on mobile signal app while sending message from signal desktop app to other signal contacts. Neither msg sent by mobile nor sent by desktop are showing up in another linked device.. do anyone facing same problem. Plz respond

  • AndyBarnham Andy Barnham (@AndyBarnham) reported

    @Antihippy fyi- there was a straw that broke the camel's back incident over the weekend and I've started to use @signalapp. When I login I see 2- 3 people, daily, appear. Seems to be a slow trickle of people coming onto it (thank goodness).

  • Aritra_7 Aritra (@Aritra_7) reported

    @signalapp guys the Mac version of the app just freezes. Its not working. Do look at it.

  • wue_dan Daniel (@wue_dan) reported

    @signalapp My Mac Version is completely out of sync and Messages I type on the Mac are not showing in the iOS Version. I re-installed Mac version and scanned the QR code but synching is not working, I just get a blank Signal on MAC without my contacts :-(

  • Athin52985589 Athin (@Athin52985589) reported

    @signalapp Signal video call is not up to mark with whatsapp. I can hear my voice echoing. Could yo please fix it.

  • iDineshJangid Dinesh Jangid (@iDineshJangid) reported

  • johnnysundari john robertson (@johnnysundari) reported

    hi @signalapp copy and paste is broken wtf? iv been using this awesome app for maybe 2 years. now this??? please fix !!!!!! #Signal #SignalApp

  • ConDecepti DéceptiCon (@ConDecepti) reported

    Am I the only one having issues with landscape photos in @signalapp ? Just can't get them straight.

  • MohammedHHamid Mohammed Hamid (@MohammedHHamid) reported

    Wow! @signalapp Desktop app is phenomenally broken. unuseable!!!

  • BarbossHack BarbossHack 🏴‍☠️ (@BarbossHack) reported

    @session_app @signalapp Where do you store, in your decentralised network, messages if group participants are offline ? I mean, if « John Doe » shut down his node, can we loose messages ? (Just asking)

  • m_arcopolo marco paşa (@m_arcopolo) reported

    @signalapp @signalapp There are problems with sound and video. There is freezing in the video conversation, and the sound goes to the other side by echoing. These need to be corrected.

  • kornelski kornel@mastodon.social (@kornelski) reported

    @najodleglejszy @signalapp Yes, indeed. At it creates a trap that a messaging app with perfect cryptography is still not sufficient to send messages securely. People who don't know that will get themselves in trouble.

  • boogaav Andrey (@boogaav) reported

    @moxie @elonmusk @signalapp it sounds like a good problem to have :)

  • frankstallone Frank Stallone 🏋️‍♂️ (@frankstallone) reported

    @signalapp has this odd UX due to it's contraints on views. I assume it's because of a discoverability problem. When you join, if you tell it to look at you contacts to see who you know is on Signal...

  • leomeloxp Leo Melo 🏳️‍🌈✊🏾 (@leomeloxp) reported

    @signalapp I changed phones over the weekend and now cannot get the Signal registration to go through on my new device (sms or call). I have Signal running on my old phone, iPad, etc. Anything I can do other than wait for load issues to be solved?

  • Maniacbolts Manny (@Maniacbolts) reported

    @raptorzghost @signalapp perhaps im not technically minded enough to understand this problem well enough but my guess would be this would be insecure.

  • jskora696 Jakub Sýkora (@jskora696) reported

    Hey @signalapp , someone is trying to log in with my number, i'm getting texts with login code and a call afterwards every few hours or so. Can i do anything about it?
