Online Geohash Channels have never worked since day one across multiple graphineos devices.

If I knew that then I would be the dev. Does bitchat depend on google play services? I obviously granted all permissions.

Care to elaborate?
@calle i found this problems: - The devices doesn't establish the connection, i have to kill the app on one device, this only happened once - The notifications doesn't work on public room (i think is normal), but works on DM - Background sync works... almost sometimes i lost images, texts are OK - The message/image order are not based on message timestamp but based on arrival order - it's not clear what green mark means (see attach), i sent that message while the second device was in sleping mode image
If a try to send a DM while the other device is Offline(out of range) the message is marked with an empty dot, the message is not delivered when the device comes online again.

When someone sends you a private message, and you go to the envelope to open it, when you open it, you see that the message is blank, that is, there is nothing written, as if they had not sent any message.I don't know if it's because people haven't updated to the latest version of the app and that gives these problems. I reported the problem on Github.
OK now I understand what green mark means. Green = delivered Blue = read Bug, if I send 5 messages I obtain 5 green mark, when the second device read the messages just the last one is marked blue

I noticed this when I don't have two cell phones at hand, but when I'm on geohash, there are people connected, in the sense that if a person from the geohash I'm on sends me a private message, I can't read it because it's white. Only the envelope symbol that he sent me the message appears, but no text appears. And it's certainly reversible on my part too in his messages, Where he sees my messages in white. So the problem is mutual. I thought it was an app update issue, the fact that one is using a different version than the other, but that's not the case. Then another thing is that when someone sends me a message and I open it and the white text appears, if I open and close the app, the message symbol always appears. However, there's a solution in the Github "Pull Request" section. You can check it out.
