I am finished the initial sync for about 30 mins or so but less than 1 hour. Yes, the percentage seems running slow but it runs. No need to worry. It will finished the process by itself. I don't use TOR but only with normal connection.

For those who curious why initial sync took some time, Ginger Wallet website mention article link by nopara73[1]. While that article mention Wasabi Wallet, it also applies to Ginger (which is fork of Wasabi). Good thing i happen to run full node, so initial sync done in less than 20 minutes.
So you disable "Network Anonymization (Tor)" on setting manually? I guess there's no serious privacy concern, since you just download block filter data during initial sync.

While downloading the wallet to post the address from wallet which is the required format for signature campaign application, I noticed a bug not sure if it's been mentioned already, but I faced just recently so it's not resolved and it should be.
What's the bug?
Create new wallet => 12 words recovery seed page => selecting the 12 words in order (only 11 were words shown), so, it not possible to enter the words manually by ourselves I had to give couple of tries before finally getting the 12 words even though I downloaded it successfully it needs attention.
Also how long the initial sync time? It has been more than 30 mins and currently I am only around 38% progress.

Hi, could you please describe the issue in detail so we can look into it? We haven’t encountered a similar issue before. I just created a wallet as a test, and the issue didn’t occur for me.
If you're starting Ginger for the first time, it might feel quite slow because discovering new nodes can be unusually slow for some reason.

Then I installed but it needs for sometime until it finish, but I guess the software download some files needed to completed. Also how long the initial sync time?

After the installation is done, I see a message like @apogio explain appear and I just click what it needs and everything is done. I forgot to screenshot what I did so maybe you confuse about that. Maybe later I will explore the software to know more.

It's almost there!
I got almost 3 hours of waiting (I think it's 2 hrs. and 45 mins.) and it successfully running my own node now.
But it makes me confused here, when you say you're connected to the node it should be there's green color dot, isn't it?
But it looks like this.

When the sync finishes, it doesn't mean that you 're running a node. In order to run a bitcoin node, you need much more than 3hrs of waiting because it downloads all the transactions from block 0.
Actually I said that I 've connected Ginger wallet to a Bitcoin Core instance (bitcoin node) that I run on the same device.
Have a look at this:
If you run Bitcoin Core, then Ginger wallet will communicate with it using the port 8333.
If you don't run Bitcoin Core, it's still not a problem, it will work either way.

The initial sync took approximately 3-4 hrs with TOR enabled. It will pass, don't worry! Just wait, because TOR is slow.
Almost 2 hours and I am around 78% so yeah hopefully it will be synced in the next hour or so.I got almost 3 hours of waiting (I think it's 2 hrs. and 45 mins.) and it successfully running my own node now.

Found about GingerWallet after seeing the signature campaign at services board, and to be honest this seems to be a great project without any doubt. It's true a new way for the ones who prefer anonymity and privacy of their coins. One should read the terms and conditions before using it.
