Signal Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Fr.O So (@FrOSo49) reported@signalapp @404mediaco Not sure the main problem about notifications is solved
-
L (@obsidian98) reported@signalapp is broken, I guess
-
fabian (@fabianleitner) reported@signalapp I would argue that that's more of a people-being-naive issue than anything Signal as a company could control
-
Tony Losego (@Titalus) reported@gg8866401 @signalapp A proper execution would fix all of this.
-
AmiR Rashidi (@Ammir) reportedFirebase Phone Number Verification going GA matters far beyond developer convenience. In countries like #Iran, where SMS verification codes are often blocked or unreliable, SMS-less phone verification could help users register for secure apps — if adopted by apps like @signalapp.
-
Dustin (BusySignal-KE2EFX) (@DustinFinn) reportedOMFG - these arm chair security people calling this recent issue where iOS notifications where preview messages were held - calling it a @signalapp issue are just making me nuts. It’s an #OpSec issue / if you’re concerned - security is not one app it’s an entire process.
-
TechContent (@TechContentinfo) reported@signalapp a number of my contacts are not getting notifications of my signal messages. One on Android and others on iphone. Been like this for at least a year. Please fix.
-
Mpost Media Group (@mpost_io) reported✅ @Apple has rolled out a software fix to address a flaw that stored notifications marked for deletion on the device. This vulnerability allowed the @FBI to read deleted messages in @signalapp. The update comes weeks after it was revealed that the agency managed to forensically extract copies of incoming #Signal messages from a defendant’s iPhone in connection with an attack on the Prairieland ICE detention center facility. This was possible even after the app had been deleted, by exploiting the fact that copies of message content were stored in the device’s push notification database. Signal’s developers thanked Apple for its “quick action and for understanding and acting on the stakes of this kind of issue.”

Kata Saya (@Tree_0flife) reported@signalapp hey any known issues registering the app in Indonesia?
-
Russell Polo (@RussellPolo) reported@signalapp How about banning names like that? Won't fix it, makes it harder.
-
Elahe (@Elahe87936389) reported@Shahinlooo Families in Iran cannot even confirm whether their loved ones are safe. This blackout is dangerous. Please help. @Meta @Signalapp #IranMassacre #DigitalBlackoutIran #KingRezaPahlavi
-
Foxy⚔️ (@Dancinfoxy) reported@signalapp Is it just to remain connected while 80 million Iranians are silenced? Please help them, however you can. #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran
-
Dark Lord Pika (@cryptoguideen) reported@JustNews_tg @signalapp Technology cannot fix human error. All the encryption in the world won't save you from yourself.
-
BrendanEich (@BrendanEich) reported@marchofer @signalapp Not so fast. There's a Signal issue here.
-
BrendanEich (@BrendanEich) reported@NivalCat @signalapp Signal has always (since TextSecure) used phone number as primary user identifier — that’s not the issue.
