Thanks for reporting @pashynskykh,

We are aware of the problem and we are currently looking for a solution. Although our engineers are working on a fix, unfortunately I can't give a specific schedule for resolution. You might see a fix in the release notes for future versions of Signal.

Thanks for update, @Miguel-Signal

I understand that would take some time.

Please ping me if logs can help. I will be happy to provide them.

Best regards, Vladyslav

I can't personally progress this because I can't replicate on iOS simulator and don't have a piece of test hardware right now. Will leave it to the team.

This is now fixed in 6.47.0.10 Beta and in 6.46.1 Prod.
