🇲🇦🇷🇹🇮🇳 (@CphD) reported@iaryan_m @signalapp If you by chats mean signal messages, they're are stored on your device, encrypted. If you setup backup, you get a code. Only the code can unlock the stored backup. If you lose it, you lose the backup and none can help you.

Basith (@ba5ithk) reported@signalapp Nobody, has ever designed a system that can gain 50 million users within couple of days and it’s not an issue. Take your time, we'll be here waiting because we know data is not only about privacy, but also about how control and power they have on us. #sayhellotoprivacy

_b_boris (@bihireboris) reported@ValdasVaitiekus @MasterGuantai @signalapp same 😓, thought when scaling issues are done I do think the app needs some refining
-
Qomardeen Olamilekan (@Qo_Olamilekan) reported@signalapp Signal does not receive messages or notifications until it is opened. None of the troubleshooting options on your site to resolve this issue works. Most people around here who use different phones complain of this same issue. And this is specific to Signal. Kindly rectify it.

Sakhe (@SakheSengwayo) reported@signalapp Thanks for fixing the problem.
-
Smartcat (@Smartcat168) reported@dicedbrain @anthowen03 @signalapp Very positive answer. But right from the start the are millions of users with expectation and the financial pressure on Signal is tremendous. Unlike Linux, it is limited to very small groups and any flaw in the o/s is the users own problem.

Punter (@TheThinkinGhost) reported@signalapp Can anyone help ??

Johannes Laryea (@johanneslaryea) reported@signalapp Why is the camera not working?

Qomardeen Olamilekan (@Qo_Olamilekan) reported@signalapp Uninstalling, cleaning remnant files and reinstalling the app have just helped me in rectifying the issue. However, not everyone knows that this works. Kindly include this amongst the troubleshooting options.
