Donât worry! I only take @direc85âs wishes today. 
Yep! I try to send Andrew an update every year or so on what we did with his legacy 
Yeah, this is not more than a few days old issue at this point. And itâs accidentally fixed already; how cool is that!
I wondered the same thing and had to double check. Itâs actually a thing on the server side which was not found.
Absolutely! 
i use whisperfish on the xperia 10 iv and would now like to remove the password again. but it can neither be removed nor changed. can i remove it other than in the app without losing the messages? thanks
Not yet! Iâm in the same situation.
Changing, removing or setting the password is currently not possible, but it is a planned feature. If you are okay with your password stored in plaintext, you can ease the startup by saving the password in Whisperfish settings.

Oh sweet, 0.6.0-beta.30 fixed linking my C2 as a secondary device. Thank you!

Great to see progress all the time!
This will help moving to the C2 in the end as my main phone.
Thank you!

Looks like thereâs an issue when opening a session: the chat input field doesnât appear automatically. Scrolling a bit in the session should make it reappear. If there are not enough messages (yet) in the view, rotating to landscape mode can give you some more space to scroll.
Itâs an artifact from a few refactorings that came together. Weâll have a look soon and make a new version when itâs fixed
Whisperfish 0.6.0-beta.31
Some small fixes
- Fix text field not showing up.
- Send note-to-self messages as sync messages to show up on the âright sideâ of sync conversations

Thanks so much for your hard work on this app!
I have a problem I am not able to solve: I have tried to set up whisperfish as a secondary device on my working (yeah, Iâm one of the lucky ones) C2.
I had to quit the linking step by closing WF due to no internet on the other phone which I wanted to use for scanning of WFâs QR code. Now I am on WiFi, the other phone has internet access, too, but whenever I open WF to complete the step, I am greeted with an error screen (âError, setup didnât end correctlyâ, roughly translated from German). I already uninstalled WF, deleted the folders under .config and .local (or was it .cache? as they are gone, I canât check anymore, but I am sure I deleted two folders) and reinstalled WF, but I always get the error screen. What can I do to complete the setup?
Guten Morgen! Iâm also one of the âluckyâ C2 users, just installed Whisperfish (WF) and linked the C2 as second device. I did not encounter any issues. @jauri⌠perhaps you could try completly removing WF and again with a fresh install of WF?
Edit: Pls check also that you deleted at least the db and storage folder under /.local/share/be.rudbos/habour-whisperfish

Thanks for your answer! Unfortunately that is what I did: uninstall it, delete the two be.rubdos-folders and install WF again. Or did I misunderstand and you meant something else?
Yes, thanks so much! After deleting the database, I could complete the setup.

Thanks a lot for this App and your effort maintaining it! After last update, i had ran into the problem with missing textfield, looked into this forum and was happy to find your workaround, one day later there was an update fixing the problem. Great, thank you!!!

Hello,
Iâm thinking about using Whisperfish and already read the wiki article about the setup [1]. I would like to use a recommended setup and with my personal preferences this comes closest to the recommendation: Use Molly-FOSS as primary device and use Whisperfish as secondary/linked device. However I only have one smartphone device - it is a Sony Xperia XA2 running the lates SailfishOS 4.6.0.15. So I would be running Molly-FOSS via SailfishOS Android App Support as primary Signal client and the native app Whisperfish as secondary Signal client. Both clients would be running on the same device. Now Iâm unsure whether this scenario is really the right way to go. Does anyone have any experience with this kind of setup?
Thanks in advance,
rebos

I have basically almost the same setup. For safety reasons, I have the normal Signal Android installed via SailfishOSâes Android AppSupport and configured as the primary device and Whisperfish on the same device, configured as secondary. In reality, I primarily use Whisperfish, but if a bug or something similiar would prevent me from using Whisperfish, I have the Android app available on the same device. Works perfectly fine for me

The difficult part there, is to be quick enough scanning the linking QR code. Other than that, itâs probably the best setup to have

Thank you NIS and rubdos for your replies! They gave me enough confidence to give it a try: Molly-FOSS via F-Droid using Android App Support as primary Signal client and Whisperfish via Storeman/OpenRepos running natively as secondary Signal client on the same Sailfish OS device. And yes - it works! The linking process worked without any problems and now I can send and receive messages with Whisperfish (and Molly)!
