can you run it on multiple devices and have them all synced? how about chat export in a readable format?
No and no. It's basically everything is stored locally.
You can back it up. Also you can switch to a different device with a button but you can only use one device at a time.
Yeah, the question was if it could be used in multiple devices
At the same time?
That's what I understood by the question, yes.
It can run as long as your on the same network as the other instance and for the chat export in readable format, I actually don't know, sorry
You can only use one device at a time. However you can toggle between mobile and desktop
That rules it out for me then. I like to use XMPP+OMEMO with about 4-5 clients which I can continue a conversation with at any time. Main mobile, tablet, desktop, other desktop, and backup mobile which is usually switched off. (Even if a device has been missing for too long and run out of OMEMO keys, the keys sync up again once I send a message with it.)
