Yeah! You can have many eSIMs, but the iPhone only has two radios, so only two SIMs can be "active" (connected to towers) at any time. Signal doesn't support multiple phone numbers on the same device. I have two phones: 1. Old iPhone: +55-555-5555 2. New iPhone: +1-867-5309 I would prefer to have the numbers swapped on the devices. There isn't a way to do this without "transferring"[1] the messages to a 3rd iOS device. This is an awkward edge-case that would be ameliorated by allowing local file backup / restore. https://support.signal.org/hc/en-us/articles/360007059752-Ba... | ||
