Flexiblere Messenger-Kopplung: Signal auf mehreren Mobilgeräten nutzen
Mehr als ein Gerät mit dem Messenger-Konto koppeln - das ist vielen wichtig. Deshalb hat Signal dieses Feature erweitert: Wie es nun mit Android-Tablets sowie -Telefonen und iPhones möglich ist.
Signal, the encrypted messaging app, now allows users to connect multiple mobile devices simultaneously. The support for Apple devices has also been expanded. To add additional devices, Signal version 8.20 is required for Android and version 8.22 for iOS. Users can now connect a tablet or another smartphone to their account on Android, and an additional iPhone to their Signal account on Apple.
Previously, connecting an iPad was possible. After connecting an additional device, users have two options: start with an empty chat history on the secondary device, or transfer the chat history of the past 45 days, encrypted and including media such as photos and videos, to the secondary device. Signal provides step-by-step instructions for device pairing on its support pages.
Developers note that while the process works generally well on Android tablets, there may be occasional issues with settings, in-app camera, or keyboard shortcuts. They are working on bug fixes to address these issues.
