![]() Members mostly use it so that the government and hackers don’t read personal messages, specifically if it is of a political or private nature. After you send a text, video, or image, it will vanish after a specific period, determined by the sender or receiver. This is proof they’re trying really hard to get access to your contacts and in my opinion and they’re gonna use it for marketing and selling later.The private messenger app is used to send secure chats via end-to-end encryption. Now if I click my phone number in the text that they sent my name pops up, so the program does know what my name is because it’s in my profile, but a little pop-up suggested I add my contacts…. Both my friends, one of them by accident because it ask you so often to connect to your contacts and the other on purpose added their contacts it works properly on their end but I’ve never allowed access to my contacts nor do I plan too. However on my end when I receive it it doesn’t show my name it shows my phone number…. So when my friends use It pulls up names so you can select who you are writing to and inserts the name you select into the text without type out my name…. But I suspect this is them long-term way of selling contact information. If that’s not the case They will read this comment and fix the problem. There’s no reason they need access to all of my contacts, they want that so they can gather the information and eventually sell it or use it for marketing. On the other hand they do everything they can to try to make you add them to have access to contacts. My friends and I got this to be we hope to be more secure, and it may in fact be that. This bug is resolved in the most recent version of the application. It is so stupid ~ I recommend typing messages in another app and then pasting it into signal when you are done.Īlso, FYI, if you want to copy text from a signal message, hold your finger on the message and then click on the little icon at the bottom of the screen that looks like two pieces of paper - nothing will ever appear that says “copy”. Highlighting a portion of your message is impossible it jumps from one end of the message to the other and will not allow you to scroll slowly to where you want to stop highlighting. If i try to move it further than that, the window just jumps back to the area where it is currently located and moves it to some random location nearby. I am completely unable to move the cursor more than a couple lines away from its current location at a time (and the text window doesn’t extend to more than 4 lines tall), so i have to scroll a couple lines away, click somewhere to move the cursor in the direction of where i want it to go, and repeat over and over again until it finally gets there. It is a nightmare trying to move the cursor to where you want it, or to highlight a specific section of your message. I don’t know if this disfunction is related to the particular phone (iPhone XR) that I am using Signal on now or if it is the same on other phones, but the “cursor” control on Signal is a disaster now.
