We’re quite sure why Apple acted on it. Recently, the FBI recovered deleted Signal messages from a suspect’s iPhone, despite the app and messages being removed, highlighting a security flaw in iOS rather than Signal itself. Apple’s latest iOS update addresses this, ensuring that notifications marked for deletion are actually removed, thus closing the loophole exploited to retrieve these messages. To prevent such issues, Signal users can adjust their notification settings for more privacy. Update to iOS 26.4.2 for the improved security measures.
