      I'm not sure how relevant this is to the development of this extremely useful native app. But I think it's at least interesting.

      Is currently using an Op5t
      Also owns an Op1, a BQ E4.5 and an Xperia X, as well as a BQ tablet and a Pinetab2. Please, someone... make it stop.

        @Moem Very nice, could be very cool if Signal Destkop, hence Signal UT, would become a primary client, with no need to link it to an iOS or Android device!

        Thank's for sharing!

          Up to now I didn't find a way to insert a picture from gallery or filemanager into a signal chat - latest UBT with my FP4...

            You need to open file directly from Signal app, by clicking on the "+" in the bottom right hand corner of a chat, and then select the gallery app, to select the file to import.

            It's true that there is currently something that should not be: Signal appears in the application grid in content Hub, as an option to export an image to, it should not, this does not work that way, only the other way around import the picture from the signal app. I will correct that in next revision.

              @pparent sorry - none of the buttons that appear in the bottom right corner have an effect, except of a short flicker of the keyboard...

                Can you tell which version of UT are you using, and post a video screenshot? because on all the phones that I own it works fine, so I would need to see visually whats happens on your phone.

                      Ok but could you record the screen when it fails to import the file with:

                      https://open-store.io/app/screenrecorder.ubports

                      because I fail to see what could be happening.

                        @pparent Many tries later - with a failed speechmessage too - unexpected: sending a picture works fine up to now. Later I will send you a screencast of the failed picture insert before. Btw: installing the screencast App failed... AppStore always returns to the green "installieren" button!
