Tldr: how do you modify a contact’s name?
I’ve been playing around with these signal names functionality. Adding a bunch of people via names rather than phone numbers.
I can’t seem to figure out how to change the name of the person, or add a note to the person, otherwise modify the contact in any way. So if a person names themselves a, and I talk to them, and then they rename themselves b. I have no way to know their name used to be a, or that I added them and talked to them as a. I only now see them as b.
Ideally I’d very much like to add notes, or modify the name of my contacts. For my own reference. IE Bob from the coffee shop etc etc
if they have their number hidden you cannot unfortunately. would love to see a feature built into the app to change contact info separate from device contacts. they already port said info to the desktop app when linking so I can’t imagine it would be difficult.
Closing the loop on this:
Signal, and Molly, now let you set nicknames on the signal contacts you made via names rather than phone number.
The nickname editor even has a notes field which is helpful
