Is there a way to keep Signal registered on two iPhones? Use to be possible but now seems to wipe the old phone’s registration.

Looked through docs, no luck.

I didn't find one last time I tried 😕

I dont think so

Not possible. Pretty sure it never has been. Ipad, desktop apps no problem though.

Was possible before when verification over QR on the phone was available. I still have an older phone working.

Nope.

Clunky workaround, register a new signal account with a voip number on the 2nd phone. Then start a group message with your 2 accounts and the person your actually want to talk to.

Can’t think of a way aside from having 2 sims and 2 different numbers.

Yes but it isn't for everyone. Second phone needs to be a Linux phone, and you can install one of the Signal clients on it.

Linux phones suck.

Linux phones suck less today than yesterday.

sms4sats, but that may not be your solution if it's tied to a phone number

No, Signal is a one device thing. Your date is only on the one device. Not the in the cloud to no syncing.

Scratch that. I was wrong
