You can use multiple clients, however it is best to create a new account on each one at the moment. Using the same account simultaneously is not currently supported. The behavior is undefined. The import/export feature is to simply be able to backup your account, since this information and your encryption keypair is only stored locally. Or to be able to transfer the account to use on another device instead of the one it was created on. > While Android has an import/export function, I couldn't find it on the desktop > client.

It is possible to do manually, but it would involve copying and editing several files, which is not so easy on Android. Let me know if you still want to know how to do this. > > Thanks > > _______________________________________________ > Ring mailing list > Ring@lists.savoirfairelinux.net > https://lists.savoirfairelinux.net/mailman/listinfo/ring _______________________________________________ Ring mailing list Ring@lists.savoirfairelinux.net https://lists.savoirfairelinux.net/mailman/listinfo/ring
