I would generally agree with you, if it could allow you to sign-in on multiple devices, and share message history. I understand why it doesn’t do either one, but it does cripple the experience
Yeah you can. I have it synced on desktop, phone, laptop. The kicker is that it will only have messages starting from when you synced and log in. If I added a new device, it would not see messages from yesterday, however it will start syncing from all devices from that point on.
Technically, you can sign in on multiple devices and share history. I share between my phone and multiple desktops. You just can’t do it between two mobile devices.
signal is the perfect messaging app for normies

But… you can’t sign-in on multiple devices and see the message history there?!
You can once they have both been set up, the history from that point on is shared.

But Signal doesn’t let me restrict receiving voice messages either. I only found options regarding calls, not voice messages.
