Hi! Below is my February’25 report!

In February, I resolved 567 (↓337) tickets:

* On Telegram (@TorProjectSupportBot) - 461 (↓251);

* On RT (frontdesk@tpo) - 106 (↓85);

* On WhatsApp (+447421000612) - 0 (0);

* And on Signal (+17787431312) - 0 (0).

My main focus in February was helping Russian-speaking users bypass censorship. I shared instructions, gathered user feedback, and helped troubleshoot any issues they were facing with Tor Browser. I also worked on providing feedback for Google Play Store users' reviews.

In February I took part in translation Tor Browser user survey to Russian[1], updated the issue about the virtual keyboard not working on tablets with Windows [2], and investigated canvas issues [3].

Also in February the user support team dealt with the issue of Tor Browser not working on older MacOS devices [4][5]. The issue was fixed in Tor Browser 14.0.6.

*##**Google Play Reviews for Tor Browser**(TBA)**and Tor Browser Alpha**for Android*

* Tor Browser for Android had a Google Play rating of 4.397 (↑0.015) stars in February, which is higher than in January'25.

* Tor Browser for Android (TBA) got 615 (↓142) reviews out of 60,916 for the lifetime.

* Tor Browser for Android Alpha (TBA-Alpha) app had a rating of 4.219 (↓0.009) which is lower than in January'25.

* In February, Tor Browser for Android (TBA-Alpha) got 42 (↑5) reviews out of 8,480 for the lifetime.

The most common issues on the Google Play store reviews remain the same:

* “Tor Browser doesn’t work”: - often from Russian users, who are struggling to find a way to connect to Tor. I offer users to contact us via support channels, so I often see them improving our app's rating.

* “Tor speed is too slow”: This issue is currently under investigation. I offer users to change the tor circuit, and if it doesn't help - to contact us.
