Description

Thanks for the great tool, I love it so much! Unfortunately I'm have a problem with the Android client:

  • I do receive message notifications
  • I can't see historical messages
  • I can't see new messages from myself nor friends, the chat screen is empty.
  • On the conversations list screen I can see the latest messages
  • I've tried to clean caches, reinstall, re-add device - nothing helps.
  • Everything is fine on desktop

Andrond v7.0 on Huawei MadiaPad M3

Compare the empty chat screen with the conversations list, where the latest message is visible; the issue is done when chat history and new messages display correctly on Android.
