  • burns_unit Vic Burns (@burns_unit) reported

    @signalapp hi, I'm trying to change the phone number on my account. I follow the steps to get a verification code sent to my new phone, but it just says "error connecting to service" when I enter it on my old phone. Is this the verification service that's down?

    @signalapp I tried to change my phone number with the received SMS verification code. But I kept receiving "Error connecting service". Is the service down?? Please help. P.S. Your dark theme has a problem showing the keypad for entering the verification code. I had to disable it.

  • DelibrtlyObtuse No War But Class War (@DelibrtlyObtuse) reported

    @Karstan @signalapp ****. Can you export them as a csv or something and upload them to a different app/service?

  • cimballi_ Cimballi (@cimballi_) reported

    @signalapp On Win desktop app, is there a way to write a multi line message ? I tried Ctrl + Enter but it seems it's not working. Thanks !

  • tassiapaschoal Tassia Paschoal (@tassiapaschoal) reported

    @signalapp @twilio Your messaging service is not truly private until phone number is no longer required. Please provide support for usernames.

  • _iam_no1 Kairos Babe | Toph Beifong 🌏 | Fragrance Vendor (@_iam_no1) reported

    @signalapp fix the responsiveness of your app please.

  • farukozderim Ömer Faruk Özdemir (@farukozderim) reported

    This is a huge security problem and telegram should put extra login barriers to overcome this. Either 1. Give permission from the other devices to login 2. Or need a password to login to the account just like @signalapp Reported this vulnerability a week ago to telegram,

  • olischolz oliver scholz (@olischolz) reported

    @signalapp your calling feature is pretty unreliable. Please let me know if you need help fixing it. The problems range from calls not ringing, not connecting, no audio, one-sided audio, audio being too quiet. Immediate switch over to WhatsApp or FaceTime = no problems.

  • marceatsplants marc (@marceatsplants) reported

    @appleinsider I don’t understand how this article states that viable alternates are WhatApp, Messenger, Instagram, and Google Meet whose parent companies will literally sell your data for PENNIES. This is part of the problem! @signalapp is quite honestly the best alternative here.

  • galvao Galvao 🇺🇦 (💉x4) 🐧 + 🪶 + 🐘 + 🐘 + @getlaminas (@galvao) reported

    Seems like @telegram is going through quite the shitstorm. Service was horrible all day yesterday. Web interface is currently down. Let's hope it can recover. Otherwise (or even if it does): @signalapp, people. Do it.

  • kriswierzbicki Krzysztof Wierzbicki (@kriswierzbicki) reported from Niegowa, Województwo Śląskie

    @signalapp Hi I would like propos 'Login with Signal' and support for yubkey

  • DecentralisedS ⚡ Ye Olde Decentralis'd Shoppe ⚡ (@DecentralisedS) reported

    @signalapp @twilio Why on earth are you still forcing users to hand over their phone numbers? Anyone with half a brain knows this is terrible for privacy. And supposedly that's what you're selling, right?

  • ohaikbai Mary (@ohaikbai) reported

    @signalapp I'm having trouble with messages delivering. I have service and the people I'm talking to aren't having issues receiving messages. There's just a really long gap of time between my sending the message and it being delivered. Help?

  • oscaruglyface uglyface 🏴 (@oscaruglyface) reported

    @signalapp @twilio Too bad all your businesses involve obfuscating instead of educating so no one knows how to generate their own key pairs and use any messaging service with gpg. I have no reason to believe the key pairs you generate are secure either. You are all liars and this is just the tip.

  • DrakenBlkKn Draken BlackKnight (@DrakenBlkKn) reported

    Hey @signalapp the latest update for Windows won't let me download any attachments to and from anyone. Might want to fix that.

  • baryb819 barry (@baryb819) reported

    @signalapp please can you help? You ignored my previous tweet, I need my phone number to be un-banned, thanks

  • iamnotelvis Well... not Elvis. (@iamnotelvis) reported

    @signalapp Re-registering in Signal, changing passwords, enabling registration lock - these do nothing to help the user whose phone number is now compromised. Should they get a new phone? Change every other login with a bad reg policy that required a real phone? Stop requiring traceable ID!

  • SMT_Solvers SMT Solvers (@SMT_Solvers) reported

    @opdroid1234 The problem is the security model - DMs should be more like @signalapp.
