Michael Labowicz<p>Pro tip: If you have multiple phones (e.g. one for work and one for personal), you can setup a chat group with both of your whatsapp/signal accounts and include your spouse on it. That way she can message one thing and reach you on either phone!</p><p>cc: <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.world/@signalapp" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>signalapp</span></a></span> <br><a href="https://bigshoulders.city/tags/protip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>protip</span></a> <a href="https://bigshoulders.city/tags/whatsapp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>whatsapp</span></a> <a href="https://bigshoulders.city/tags/signal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>signal</span></a></p>
