Is there an existing issue for this?

Bug description

I can't restore from a current signal backup. I'm getting the message "Import von Datensicherungen neuerer Signal-Versionen nicht möglich" (german) which translates to "Import of data backups of newer Signal versions not possible".

Steps to reproduce

  1. Have current signal backup
  2. Try to restore from that backup using molly

Molly version

v7.13.4-1

Android version

14

Device

Xiaomi Pad 5

Link to debug log

No response

Not a bug, the current version of Molly is older than the current version of Signal, and signal (therefore molly too) is designed so you can only import backups created with the same or older version.

Also just remembering I'm using Signal Beta, so that might also have something to do why my version is ahead. I guess I'll just disable auto update on signal for a while until molly catches up in version.
