  • aggieloveseggs Aggie (@aggieloveseggs) reported

    Hey @signalapp, even when I download the updated app for Windows, it's still telling me that the app is outdated and won't work properly. I restarted my computer and still having issues. What's going on? Thanks1

  • PaulGit Paul *** (@PaulGit) reported

    @signalapp Any plans to fix the use of +86 (China) phone numbers? It’s impossible to get the confirmation code now.

  • grega_miso Michal Grega (@grega_miso) reported

    @signalapp If you could fix the not updating, no notifications, no nothing and therefore not working at all problem. Signal App is essentially useless. It's frustrating. 😠

  • l0calguest localguest (@l0calguest) reported

    @lastoadri @signalapp It's not! Seems it was a bug; the android clients were sending but not receiving. They started receiving messages after unlinking and relinking desktop clients, not sure though that this was the fix.

  • itsegorkreed Егор Крид (@itsegorkreed) reported

    @PaulGit @signalapp Yes, please @signalapp Signal, fix this up…make it possible to get into the account registered by Chinese phone number

  • ALittleRuckus Elizabeth Ruckus (@ALittleRuckus) reported

    .@signalapp I hate the drop down menu thing. I love yall. Please give me back the old one 🥰

  • crow136913 Michael (@crow136913) reported

    @signalapp When are you going to fix the messed up bugs? Fix the mms issues!!

  • zoot_io zoot (@zoot_io) reported

    Ping @signalapp - reminding you to fix this. You were obviously distracted with the recent registration issue.

  • AndromedaBee Andromeda.Bee (@AndromedaBee) reported

    @signalapp Hey Im having trouble with my message notifications not popping up unless I open the app. Is this an issue that's been happening since the latest update or is it just me??

  • MOS_8502 MOS 8502 (@MOS_8502) reported

    @CoyoteDen @JimNicholls13 @signalapp Frankly I think that’s the right way to handle a domestic abuser. Don’t negotiate, don’t try to get him help, just remove him.

  • frigidcode Frank Kumro (@frigidcode) reported

    This is one of those times that I wish an alternative @signalapp client was available, as it's broken on my Linux desktop at the moment :(

  • BGINNEED1 xtt (@BGINNEED1) reported

    @brian_armstrong @signalapp You need to fix you app... it sucks... real time portfolio balance is not adding correctly.... none of this happened until you forced a verify on information that you had already verified..... stupid I'm beginning to hate Coinbase

  • lorenzwalthert Lorenz Walthert (@lorenzwalthert) reported

    I had a lot of patience with #iMessage from @Apple (and hope they'd improve it), but today I quit and move (the remainder) to @signalapp. I remember how Apple was ahead of the curve when they lauched iMessage by integrating text messaging and iMessage into one service. 1/n

  • whatatechworld Waldo (@whatatechworld) reported

    @zachklipp @signalapp Correction: Signal now obeys default snap zones in Windows 11 but still can't shrink down to any size (unlike any other Windows app), which causes problems with custom snap zones.

  • UTO1867 John. (@UTO1867) reported

    @KosselSimon @signalapp I personally don't have notification problems with Signal & i have the battery usage set to optimised (i changed the setting for your benefit to try to help you with your issue). If not receiving notifications was a massive problem there wouldn't be only you bringing the issue up

  • mnassrihakym Mnassri Hakim  (@mnassrihakym) reported

    @stefanhoegh @fomm_io @signalapp yeah I did the same but please can you help me out! maybe you got a better understanding of this new "change number" feature

  • tomspettigue Tom Spettigue (@tomspettigue) reported

    @signalapp you guys should just make it to where you don't need a ******* phone number, tbh your service would be useful to all, not just the people who can afford a phone. 😡

  • acab_bitch mayor captain acab (@acab_bitch) reported

    @signalapp can you please make it so my signal passcode login (set for X amount of time after last app use) is different than my phone passcode? if someone can already log in to my phone why would i want my signal passcode to be the same? makes very little sense for security.

  • simmonsk K Simmons 😷 🇨🇦 (@simmonsk) reported

    @signalapp Two months too late. Went through the trouble of rejoining many groups.

  • Salman__070707 Salman Ali (@Salman__070707) reported

    @signalapp Signal Is not working

  • pickled_tinker Grody🔞 (@pickled_tinker) reported

    @YourSSE Thank you. May mercy exist on your undoing. There are far more secure platforms; @signalapp and even #RCS - I sure hope when I've called or you've I, you have never routed my call via a Facebook service?

  • jvsntw jvsn (@jvsntw) reported

    @signalapp i cant use signal windows app because of white screen problem OS windows 11

  • hyartwit ht (@hyartwit) reported

    @signalapp Any chance of having Desktop app on Android? Would help both tablets and chromebooks.

  • KosselSimon SIMON BASIL KOSSEL DIATTA (@KosselSimon) reported

    @UTO1867 @signalapp That's not the problem. It's the Signal app itself. It's ****

  • bigdave914 Big Dave (@bigdave914) reported

    @whatsabschalten @signalapp @signalapp Please can I get some help? I've reached out to support 3 times and get nothing past the first ask for info. I'll boost or whatever once I can re-register.

  • EliKurc Eli Kuraka (@EliKurc) reported

    @signalapp I update regularly but don't get the 2x speed up audio message feature. please tell me how can i fix this?

  • Salman__070707 Salman Ali (@Salman__070707) reported

    @signalapp Signal Not working Now. I'm sending a message to other it takes about 3-4 hour to receive msg to another user.. take action regarding this ..your user always support you..

  • KesterRatcliff Kester Ratcliff (@KesterRatcliff) reported

    @signalapp I can't get Signal desktop app to work since many months. I've tried upgrading many times. It just gets stuck on "loading messages" endlessly. Can you help please?

  • briankung Brian Kung (@briankung) reported

    @signalapp I'm having a weird issue and I wonder if you could help direct me to where I should submit a bug report? Basically if one of my devices is catching up on history while on a video call, all my other devices will get the notifications for the backlog of messages.

  • YOO_YT_DM Yoo (@YOO_YT_DM) reported

    @signalapp would you consider to fix this!
