I'm trying to restore signal history from my mac to my iphone by using a spare android as an intermediary. Using signalbackup-tools (Signal is corrupted and won't restore)
But.. I'm stuck at the point of creating an empty back up file from the android.
When I follow the steps I get a folder, not a file. It should be in the format signal-YYYY-MM-DD-HHMM.backup. But I only get a folder, which doesn't work.
I've enabled backups. I've restarted device. I've redone it.
(I'm using signal settings>backups> create backup)
Help! What am i doing wrong? Any advice would be really appreciated!
