Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • aevavoom Aeva ✨ (@aevavoom) reported

    @TaePhoenix @signalapp It's been having connectivity issues all day. Something something rapid growth...

  • sebbbster sebbbster (@sebbbster) reported

    @signalapp I keep my fingers crossed that you can quickly expand capacity. It would be a shame if the shift from #WhatsApp to #SignalApp were to be slowed down by this.

  • AndreasBrett Andreas Brett (@AndreasBrett) reported

    @signalapp one thing I'm missing - especially now with the maintenance issues - is an official channel within signal by signal. Just like in @ThreemaApp and @telegram. It's better to have that info in the app rather than expecting users to check your social media accounts.

  • Af91204 Tough Cookie🇮🇳 (@Af91204) reported

    Signal app is not working properly What's the problem? @signalapp

  • SalimIn33289112 𝑺𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒎 𝑰𝒏𝒂𝒎𝒅𝒂𝒓 (@SalimIn33289112) reported

    @signalapp No problem I am writing.

  • NishantShetty15 Nishant Shetty (@NishantShetty15) reported

    @signalapp By the time Signal fixes the issue we can try @telegram and yes telegram is always on due to its distributed servers.

  • WhatsAppNews1st Whatsapp News 1st (@WhatsAppNews1st) reported

    @camsoft2000 @signalapp My suggestion used both app if Signal Perfect And no issue then permanent used

  • beardtoshi Software Engineer (@beardtoshi) reported

    This free app, run on donations instead of selling your data, is unsurprisingly having issues. Yet people are still complaining. Just to reiterate @signalapp: * Free to use ✅ * Relies on donations instead of selling your data ✅ * Had a 40M increase in its user base ✅ 2/

  • SkypLabs Skyper 💻🎧☕📖 (@SkypLabs) reported

    @sunny051488 @signalapp Adding new servers won't fix all potential bottlenecks. It's like adding more lanes to a highway, they will all be merged together at some point...

  • MontgomeryKen Ken Montgomery (@MontgomeryKen) reported

    @rwang0 @signalapp It was down for me for a while and I couldn't help think....

  • jibbajabbasteve Steve N (@jibbajabbasteve) reported from Killamarsh, England

    Well @signalapp is up and down more than a brides nightie at the minute.....must be mad their new user figures....so having to sort infrastructure to cope no doubt #geekytweet

  • DaiasDerek Curious Dee (@DaiasDerek) reported

    @Snowden @signalapp @Facebook It's apparent now that whatsapp shouldn't have sold to Facebook. Just like Mark didn't want to sell his facebook company. Guess they lost their focus and fell for a flawed deal. Well, there's #SignalApp! No problem.

  • AravindhStanley Aravindh Stanley (@AravindhStanley) reported

    @signalapp is signal still down? I can send message but cannot receive anything.

  • reynierfg Reynier Fernandez Guzman (@reynierfg) reported

    @signalapp Server still not working 99% as should

  • a_kamko Artem (@a_kamko) reported

    @ManuelSavorelli @signalapp No, for this case telegram will help you

  • E05804035 E. (@E05804035) reported

    @signalapp privacy rule number 1 don’t use any service from the US

  • DDERSS Котомкин-Портянский (@DDERSS) reported

    @AFDudley0 @yashalevine @signalapp The issue is that developers may "accidentally" leave obscure bugs in the code -- which sometimes require many years to uncover by the open-source community -- which are known to the funders from the security apparatus/Pentagon to be used for undetected spying.

  • DjokerNol23 Suyash (@DjokerNol23) reported

    @signalapp facing the same problems as Pied Piper. It's a good problem tho

  • AlRaffah1 Al Raffah English (@AlRaffah1) reported

    @signalapp There is a problem while sending a text or a media it takes too long to reach! Hope you'll fix it.

  • ArnavPoddar1 Arnav Poddar (@ArnavPoddar1) reported

    @Nicola_Anne2019 @elonmusk @signalapp it's your problem, not his he is just trying to make it better and help. you can't understand high-level things.

  • highvoltage 𝖍𝖎𝖌𝖍𝖛𝖔𝖑𝖙𝖆𝖌𝖊 (@highvoltage) reported

    @MENCEEEY @xychelsea @signalapp You don't get it, this is always going to be a problem. Chelsea has this right.

  • AndreasBrett Andreas Brett (@AndreasBrett) reported

    @signalapp one thing I'm missing - especially now with the maintenance issues - is a notification channel within signal itself. Just like in @ThreemaApp and @telegram. It's better to have that info in the app rather than expecting users to check your social media accounts.

  • y_gaurav_ Gaurav (@y_gaurav_) reported

    Signal is down. @elonmusk @signalapp

  • stbridget77 CharlotteDelbo (@stbridget77) reported

    HELLO MY NAME IS CHARLOTTE AND I’M A SIGNAL ADDICT. @signalapp being down today has made me hit rock bottom and I can no longer live in denial

  • aashray7289 Aashray (@aashray7289) reported

    @signalapp Please solve all issues as soon as possible. Or people will again move toward other messaging app and services. Some other issues are - Can’t ring my phone when someone place video call to me. - Provide registration on multiple devices. - Please provide walkie talkie like feature

  • coolest_forever VISHAL PANDEY (@coolest_forever) reported

    @signalapp Is any one got the same issue on app?

  • santanuh Santanu Halder (@santanuh) reported

    @signalapp The issue is still continuing. People are leaving whatsapp and joining Signal. If Signal does not work at this time, people will go back. Signal is essentially missing a great opportunity with this kind of outage.

  • offroad_soul offroad.soul (@offroad_soul) reported

    @signalapp did a logout login.... Lost few groups from the list in the bargain.

  • albulushi_11 البلوشي (@albulushi_11) reported

    @Klippenkuckuck2 @signalapp Just an alert, this is an excellent feature, and whoever fixes the problem, the alert will disappear

  • AlanAstureyme シ Alan Astureyme ツ (@AlanAstureyme) reported
