Can I log into the same Signal account on two mobile devices yet? That’s the showstopper for me.

- ThatPlayer 5y agoNot exactly mobile, they have an iPad app that'll let you login into the same account. But not available on Android tablets. Or on other phones, but clearly the technology is there.
- Someone1234 5y agoNope, and it is a completely artificial restriction. For example: - iPhone + iPad? Supported. - Android Phone + Android Tablet? Supported. - iPhone + iPhone (no SIM card/no phone number)? Not supported. - Android Phone + Android Phone (no SIM card)? Not supported. This, according to them, because they want to simplify the setup experience. But in reality adding a bypass option to the onboarding process to provide the tablet setup experience would be trivial and should have happened three years ago. You can add this to the "list" like no Gifs on PC even though the code exists for mobile clients, and they share a lot of source code already.
- chenxiaolong 5y ago> - Android Phone + Android Tablet? Supported. Unfortunately, I don't think even this is supported. The Android app can't seem to act as a secondary device in any configuration.
