👉🏻Issue 6：About message history on linked devices
About: Right after you link a device, your phone sends an end-to-end encrypted copy of your most recent message history to your newly linked device, where it’s stored locally. Depending on the number of messages in your chats, it can take a few minutes for your message history to appear on linked devices.
- The user cannot view message history
