I'd just be happy if there was a way to restore my messages from Android to iOS (or vice-versa). I'm going to lose my messages from the past 4 years because of this. And it's been an open request with the devs for 5 years now.
Yeah, they seem to put a lot of energy into esoteric features, when the app is in serious need of some quality of life improvements. I donate a tiny monthly sum to the project and honestly feel conflicted about how effectively it's being used.
Like the checking for messages notification on Android, I use notification reminder app to remind me of missed messages (ring every 5 minutes) and sometimes randomly in the middle of the night Signal creates a notification that says "checking for messages" and it stays there for a while getting my notification remjnder to think there is an unread message and ringing in the middle of the night. I can't turn off notifications I might need to be waken up for important stuff.
You could use Tasker to make an automation that checks what the notification's content is, but it's just an ugly workaround
