Cool, I see it now. But there's still no way to change it. In Snapchat, when I set the time it impacts all messages in the conversation. It'd be nice to have the timer impact all messages in the conversation, it's weird how it is set at the conversation level but doesn't apply to all messages in that conversation.

Create new group. Invite friends. Change your avatar. Change group avatar. Literally had to text myself a picture from my Macbook to my Phone so I could use it as my avatar. Oof. Windows Desktop version vs iOS app version. MacOS version I dont't think is any better.
Found another annoying thing... two actually. "Mark as unread" is device specific, not message specific. Also under the little info on each message there's a button "Delete Message" but again it's not a real delete, it just impacts the device -- all the other places they said, "Delete message for me" so they know it's confusing to just say "Delete" and not have it actually delete the message for everyone.
> It does suck on iOS from what I've read.
Good it works better on other platforms, but yeah it really sucks on iOS. Get a new phone, and you have to be re-added to groups.

Why? Doesn't seem like it'd be impossible to sync all messages across all devices. Doesn't seem like it'd be hard to allow for deletion of sent messages. It's not peer-to-peer, and they keep all the messages on the server... when you turn on Signal Desktop it goes and retrieves the messages for you going back quite a ways. They just need to sync between devices.
Thanks for the response!
