Correct, it's only going forward from that point, which is a deal breaker for many. New device = no chat history.

- rkangel 6y agoYes, it's a pain. And I have to install a thing, rather than just open a WebApp because I have to write some long messages. I've been using Signal for 4 hours though so we'll see how it goes.
- chanmad29 6y agowow! so I move from a iphone to a new iphone and I end up with no history? This is really a deal breaker.
- newscracker 6y agoIf you have the current iPhone and the new iPhone close by, you can transfer all conversations from the old one to the new one through a direct transfer mechanism built into Signal. But if you don’t have both devices close by or if you’re setting up your iPhone as new due to some issues and the restore from an iCloud or iTunes backup, then you’re out of luck because Signal prevents its data from being backed up to iCloud and iTunes.
