    @signalapp 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)

    @admediainsider @signalapp @karunasharmaa There is no problem. Left Facebook on 2011 and will do it with WhatsApp too. Their loss.

    @signalapp Why it is so hard to register with you? I was already in, the suddenly your app requires me to use my text messages service only with your app, then kickedme out and now i cant register or enter because I'm already registered.?? wtf

    @signalapp Is your service still under pressure? I can send messages and people receive it but not the other way round. My phone keeps silent :(

    I am getting multiple echoes in audio, while making audio video or group audio/video calls on @signalapp the audio echoes multiple times and reverbes. This continues with 'relay calls' switched on or off. What could be done to fix the echo in audio? @elonmusk @brianacton

    Hey @signalapp Using a Xiaomi phone, The voice notes are processed with an annoying effect. It doesn't happen with any other app but just signal. Already sent you an email with an audio sample but haven't got any response or fix yet #Signal

    @signalapp We did as you said, but we still have issues. Some messages are not coming through. Tried it with three friends: Person X -> Y WORKING Person Y -> X NOT WORKING Person Z -> X WORKING Person X -> Z WORKING Person Z -> Y NOT WORKING The behave is wierd. We reset secure x-times.

    @signalapp it doesnt seem like messages are syncing between my phone and the desktop app. messages on my phone show up on the desktop, but messages i type on the desktop do NOT show up on my phone. i've tried to re-link the desktop but that doesn't help.

    @freenando75 @signalapp Why? Log in with your tablet and the phone number of your Nokia. Then connect your tablet to your Linux system. At least the first one should work without problems.

    @TaslCan @signalapp It is good that you got it working. Terry has the same phone. She doesn't fix things; she lives with the errors! Happy Tuesday to all of you from all of us!

    @signalapp I had earlier tweeted about the number of errors in Signal app. I was wrongly misappropinized because of ignorance about how to use Signal app effectively. The images, mms sent from Signal app had been sent by me to Whatsapp user. That may be reason he ...(1/3)...

    @moxie and @signalapp - Regularly when making calls from the Signal app, the receiving side does not ring, despite all their notifications being set up properly. Is this a looming problem from your growth spurt?

    @yashalevine @torproject @signalapp This is FUD. Tor uses many layers of and protocols ensuring one node cannot know where the info came from. Singal is e2e encrypted. No vital info is stored in servers. Meta data analysis for both is viable and happens. This is an intrinsic problem of IP protocol

    @signalapp Hi.I am trying to sign up a new account to the Signal app with my phone number(valid in my phone)but I am not getting the code that is required to complete the sign up. Also,I tried the "Call me for the code";I got no calls. I tried these several times but the issue...

    People power, in this context, means choosing to use technology in ways that protect you, rather than threatening to harm you. @signalapp is a centralized service operated for the good of its users, rather than the profit of its proprietors. #FOSS

  • i_relish_code

    Today, I switched to @signalapp from @WhatsApp because of the coercive new terms of service by whatsApp. I chose signal over telegram because it is free as well as opensource, developed following gold standards with no commercial ambitions.

    @signalapp Thank you Signal for your service. These past few days is more evidence that Facebook and Whatsapp is garbage.

    Anyone else having issues with using @signalapp for SMS/MMS messages? I'm guessing it might have to do with the overload of their services..

    I just received an email from @signalapp service support team regarding my concerns with not receiving the OTP to activate my account. They seem really dedicated to provide us new members with their service and expand their servers. Hope to get connected ASAP with #signal.
