Is Signal down, or is it just you?
Multiple independent check rounds from rimetry's monitoring infrastructure, run seconds apart.
Our checks reached Signal successfully in every round of the last check cycle.
| Check round | Last check | Success rate (24h) | Avg response |
|---|---|---|---|
| Round 1 | Reachable | 100% | 629 ms |
| Round 2 | Reachable | 100% | 614 ms |
| Round 3 | Reachable | 100% | 580 ms |
| Round 4 | Reachable | 100% | 600 ms |
Based on 3,284 automated checks in the last 24 hours. Each round is an independent pass over the same endpoint, seconds apart — a single failing round is not an outage; repeated failures across rounds are.
What can be affected on Signal?
These are the main Signal functions that can experience separate issues.
- Login & authenticationTest signing in from a private browser window or another device
- MessagingSend to a different chat to see whether it's account-specific
- VoiceSwitch voice region or server if calls fail to connect
- Video callsTest audio-only first: video often fails while voice still works
- NotificationsCheck notification permissions before reporting missing alerts
- Mobile appForce-close and reopen the app, then retry on mobile data
This list shows which parts can fail on their own. It does not mean any of them is failing right now — the live status above is the only claim we make about the current state.

About Signal
Signal provides end-to-end encrypted messaging, voice calls, and video conferencing through its open-source protocol. Users rely on the platform for private communication via secure groups, disappearing messages, and encrypted file transfers. Disruptions typically manifest as failed message delivery, inability to link new desktop devices, or dropped voice calls when the central signaling servers encounter issues. Rimetry monitors the accessibility of the Signal infrastructure across various geographic locations to provide real-time updates on its operational health.
Problems with Signal can affect login & authentication, messaging, voice independently.
Signal (signal.org) is a communication service monitored continuously by rimetry's automated checks. We probe its public endpoints every 60 seconds in repeated independent rounds to detect outages and latency spikes the moment they happen.
Right now Signal is reporting as operational across our probes, with an average response time of 52 ms and 100.00% uptime over the last 24 hours. Most users connecting to signal.org are seeing it work normally.
Common causes of disruption for services like Signal include backend API failures, region-specific routing problems at the CDN or ISP layer, expired TLS certificates, DNS misconfigurations, and capacity spikes during major events. rimetry combines automated probes, vendor status feeds, and verified community reports to give you a single high-confidence answer instead of guessing.

What is Signal?
End-to-end encrypted messaging.
Signal is part of our Communication category. You can also review current trending outages across the internet.
Common issues
- · Messages stuck sending
- · Calls dropping or failing to connect
- · Notifications delayed
- · Login or device-linking errors
Similar patterns often surface across other communication providers — cross-check against the global outage map.
Troubleshooting
- · Test signing in from a private browser window or another device
- · Send to a different chat to see whether it's account-specific
- · Switch voice region or server if calls fail to connect
- · Test audio-only first: video often fails while voice still works
- · Check whether messages fail to send or fail to arrive — they're different problems
- · Test a call on mobile data to rule out firewall or Wi‑Fi restrictions
- · Restart the app so it re-establishes its websocket connection
- · Confirm notification permissions if alerts are silent
- · Try the web client to see whether the desktop app alone is affected
- · Check Signal's official social channels
