The Status app team is now releasing the final feature release (v2.34.4) of this legacy Status Mobile App (Status Legacy), which includes:
- Renaming the app to Status Legacy and changing its icon to blue, so users can easily distinguish it from the unified Status mobile app (Status).
- Two new features to make user profile and data migration to the unified Status mobile app (Status) simple, secure, and private:
- Optional message syncing across devices using end-to-end encrypted app pairing. Go to Settings → Syncing and Backup → Paired Devices → Tap + to start a new sync → Enable message syncing.
- On-device backup to manually back up your Status profile data (including optional backup of your direct, group, and community messages) directly on your device. Go to Settings → Syncing and Backup → Backup.
While the Clojure-based Status Legacy app (Status Legacy) will remain public and open for contributions, the core Status team won’t add new features beyond the current v2.34.4 release. The team will focus on developing the unified Status Mobile App (Status) going forward. We may issue critical fixes, if absolutely needed, during the 2–3-month user migration period.
