Using a supported version?

  • I have searched searched open and closed issues for duplicates.
  • I am using Signal-Desktop as provided by the Signal team, not a 3rd-party package.

Overall summary

If I update my username on my Primary Device, Signal Desktop Beta doesn't seem to know that I have a new one. It only knows that my old username has changed.

So Signal desktop beta suggests I change my username again.

Steps to reproduce

  1. I use Signal 7
  2. Setting up a user name
  3. I link to Signal Desktop Beta 7.0.0-beta-1
  4. Everything is going well, I'm receiving my messages, etc.
  5. I've decided to change my username on my Signal 7 primary device.
  6. Signal-Desktop-Beta suggests I change my user name. It doesn't seem to know that I've got a new one. It just knows that the old one is no longer good.

Expected result

Normally Signal-Destop-Beta should know that I have a new username. He doesn't have to suggest me to change it again.

Because then it turns into a vicious circle ...

Actual result

Signal-Desktop-Beta suggests I change my user name

Sorry about this. What primary do you use: Android/iOS? Could you provide a debug log from the phone as well?
