When I use signal on my phone it works ok. But, occasionally I need to use it on my PC. Basically every time I start it on pc, it requires updating and repairing with my phone.

As a result, I do not have access to the history of my chats.

For me, this makes signal unusable.

What do I do wrong?

    Have the Signal desktop client to autostart on login. That will dramatically decrease the probability to stay so long offline that it’ll need repairing. My laptop’s client which I turn one a couple of times a week hasn’t asked me to repair in at least a year.

      Yes, this will work. Another solution is: use a messenger which does not have such issues.
