Signal Desktop for PC

What's new in this version:

Signal Desktop 7.36.1
- This update fixes a bug on macOS Sonoma that prevented screen sharing from working correctly if permission to share the screen had previously been denied — so you no longer need to share your screen with an error message
- Filter by Unread now highlights the selected chat, and the list of unread chats will automatically update as new messages arrive or when you catch up in one chat and click on another


Signal Desktop 7.36.0
- Filter by Unread now highlights the selected chat, and the list of unread chats will automatically update as new messages arrive or when you catch up in one chat and click on another


Signal Desktop 7.35.0
- The new filter icon next to the search box makes it easy to quickly find unread chats, but feel free to take your time deciding whether or not to leave them on read after seeing what they had to say


Signal Desktop 7.34.0
- This update introduces support for new processors on Windows like the Snapdragon X Elite, so you don't need to twist your ARM into emulating x86 anymore
- We also fixed a bug that broke the dark theme in Signal when your operating system settings were configured to use a light theme. Signal Desktop can now properly handle your thematically split personality.


Signal Desktop 7.33.0
- This update fixes a bug where the correct context menu wasn't appearing after right-clicking on an emoji while selecting text


Signal Desktop 7.32.0
- Thanks to some small optimizations, this update slightly reduces the size of the app by approximately 4 megabytes. That's enough room for you to send the equivalent of about 4 books’ worth of text messages (or 2-3 animated GIFs) without taking up any extra space.
- If Wayland is your compositing window manager (and not just the name of a blacksmith you vaguely remember from Beowulf) you'll be happy to hear that we also fixed a bug with the screen sharing button on Linux


Signal Desktop 7.31.0
- Now you can quickly download every photo in an album when you receive a message with multiple attachments. But if you were a gallery curator with impeccable taste in another life, you can still save them individually too.


Signal Desktop 7.30.0
- Introducing Call Links: The missing link for calendar invites and impromptu gathering
- Now you can quickly create an easy link that anyone on Signal can use to join a group call without having to join a Signal group chat firs

- You can manage your call links, control approval settings, and copy links from the calls tab for quick sharin


Signal Desktop 7.29.0
- This update improves startup speed by around 5%, so feel free to slow down a little bit in other areas of your life


Signal Desktop 7.28.0
- We fixed a bug that prevented stickers from working correctly in the media editor, and now the picker no longer gets stuck when you're trying to stick a sticker on a picture
- This update also includes support for the new screen sharing interface in macOS Sequoia


Signal Desktop 7.27.0
- Now you can remove quoted replies from edited messages. It's perfect for those moments when you realize that your response was so good that it doesn't actually need to stand on another message's shoulders, or when you accidentally reply to the wrong message with "I love you too."


Signal Desktop 7.26.0
- Sometimes leaving something behind is the best way to discover that you want to find it again, so we fixed a bug that made it difficult to search for groups that you're no longer a part of anymore but that still remain in your conversation list (and quite possibly in your heart).


Signal Desktop 7.25.0
- Take a trip down memory lane with the new and improved "All Media" view. Now when you click on a chat header and select "See all" in the shared media section, older photos and videos will automatically appear as you scroll instead of being limited to the most recent entries.


Signal Desktop 7.24.1
- This update fixes a bug where viewing a missed call on one device wouldn't automatically clear the indicator for that missed call on your other devices, which was a missed opportunity for your missed call list to better coexist


Signal Desktop 7.24.0
- This update fixes a bug where viewing a missed call on one device wouldn't automatically clear the indicator for that missed call on your other devices, which was a missed opportunity for your missed call list to better coexist.


Signal Desktop 7.23.0
- Chats now open faster than ever thanks to another round of performance improvements, so you can click on your cliques and see what they're saying real quick
- We also fixed a handful of bugs, including one that sometimes caused "Unknown contact started a video call" to appear in the chat list summary after you started the call. Even if you're still on a journey of self-discovery, you are never completely unknown to yourself.


Signal Desktop 7.22.2
- Signal Desktop can now automatically resume interrupted attachment downloads from where they left off, so you won't need to wait as long to laugh even if you close your laptop lid before the meme your friend sent you has finished transferring


Signal Desktop 7.22.0
- Signal Desktop can now automatically resume interrupted attachment downloads from where they left off, so you won't need to wait as long to laugh even if you close your laptop lid before the meme your friend sent you has finished transferring


Signal Desktop 7.20.1
- Everyone loves a good story, and we could tell you the tale of a bug that sometimes caused the progress bar to freeze right in the middle of watching a good story — but that bug's adventure already has a happy ending because we fixed it in this release


Signal Desktop 7.20.0
- Stories with long captions are displayed on a subtle gradient background that improves contrast and makes the text easier to read. Now that people can see what you're saying, feel free to write a couple paragraphs about why something really made you laugh instead of just saying "lol."
- This release also improves the performance of link preview generation and fixes a bug that caused the Settings window to briefly flash a lovely shade of ultramarine whenever it was closed (instead of just closing right away).


Signal Desktop 7.19.1
- Stories with long captions are displayed on a subtle gradient background that improves contrast and makes the text easier to read. Now that people can see what you're saying, feel free to write a couple paragraphs about why something really made you laugh instead of just saying "lol."

- This update fixes an issue affecting some users, a crash with the error "The expression evaluated to a falsy value."


Signal Desktop 7.19.0
- If another call is calling your name, we added a shortcut to leave the current call and join a new one. You'll be prompted to confirm your departure, but it's up to you whether or not you say goodbye first.
- This update also fixes a startup crash on Linux for users whose locale is set to POSIX


Signal Desktop 7.18.0
- A quick goodbye is sometimes easier than a slow farewell, so we sped up the process of deleting large message thread


Signal Desktop 7.16.0
- We fixed a bug that prevented the button to minimize a call from appearing while that call was reconnecting. Now you don't need to feel disconnected from previous chats even if the internet is feeling disconnected.


Signal Desktop 7.15.0
- Now you can forward contact cards that were sent from a mobile device. Share the take-out number for your favorite restaurant without taking out your phone
- New support for high-resolution "jumbomoji" adds larger-than-life detail to large emoji, especially on big screens with small pixels
- We also updated the Sticker Creator to support the latest Emoji, so today's stickers are no longer stuck with yesterday's Unicode standard


Signal Desktop 7.14.0
- If you're tired of losing your voice, we fixed a bug where switching to another chat or application while recording a voice message could cause that message to disappear. In-progress voice messages are now saved as drafts so you can review and send them when you return to the chat.


Signal Desktop 7.13.0
- We fixed a bug that displayed images with the wrong aspect ratio if you resized the Signal Desktop window while viewing someone's profile picture. The people you love should only look squeezed if you are giving them a hug.
- This update also improves the display of quoted replies in RTL languages


Signal Desktop 7.12.0
- Raise your hand if you've been looking for another way to communicate during group calls. The new Raise Hand feature is a simple way to get someone's attention, ask a question, or unanimously vote for a group proposal when your friend asks "all those in favor?"
- We modified the keyboard shortcut for sending a voice note to Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+Y so that it no longer conflicts with the "Paste and Match Style" shortcut on Windows and Linux
- We broke up with a bug in the crop tool, so now it's easier and more intuitive to cut your ex (or anything else) out of the picture


Signal Desktop 7.11.1
- Fixed a rendering bug that caused the contacts icon to smash itself right next to the contact's name while viewing the list of participants in a group call. You're probably really close to your contacts, but sometimes you (and the Signal Desktop user interface) both need a little space.

Signal Desktop 7.9.0

Signal Desktop 7.8.0

And you'll even see an animation of everyone's emojional outburst if enough people in the call react with the same emoji all at once.


Signal Desktop 7.7.0
- Tweaks, bug fixes, and performance enhancements. Keep on texting, calling, and video chatting as usual.


Signal Desktop 7.6.0
- Small tweaks, bug fixes, and performance enhancements


Signal Desktop 7.5.1
- We added support for custom nicknames and notes for anyone you're chatting with on Signal, even if they aren't in your system contacts. Whether you're adding the missing letters in a lazy friend's profile name, or a reminder about where you met, notes and nicknames provide a convenient and secure way to jot down additional details about your Signal Connections — and they're end-to-end encrypted and protected by your Signal PIN so they can be securely restored if you lose your phone too.
- Now you can minimize Signal to your system tray on Linux. If your taskbar is the right shade of gray, it’s like your messages are waiting for you on a silver platter.
- For users on Windows, this update re-enables support for detailed unread message counts on the Signal icon. Say goodbye to “9+” because now the icon goes to 11 (or higher).

Signal Desktop 7.3.1
- Now you can clear missed calls on your phone and the badge on the calls tab in Signal Desktop will be updated too
- We also redesigned the badge count indicator on Windows. Now the color in the taskbar matches the color in the system tray. Fashion is all about coordination, and a little pop of red is a perfect look for spring.

Signal Desktop 7.2.1
- Thanks to the performance improvements in this release, opening large group chats is faster than ever. If you're in a group with several hundred people that likes to debate the existence of parallel universes, you now live in a timeline where it takes a lot less time to show the timeline of people talking about timelines.


Signal Desktop 7.1.1
- This update enables support for all of the new emoji characters in Emoji version 15.1. People keep asking us what our favorite new emoji is, but answering that question is a “lime” we won't cross.


Signal Desktop 7.0.0

Signal Desktop 6.48.1

Signal Desktop 6.47.1

- It’s too bad that we already made a New Year's Resolution joke in the release notes for the last update, because we just increased the maximum resolution for screen sharing during Signal video calls. Our new resolution is to avoid any resolution puns until 2025.
