App segfaults directly on launch (wonder if it's since 7.29, because I had iOS 18 and an older version of Signal for a couple of days on my old phone), have posted an IPS-file on an issue I created a couple of days ago about the same thing: #5875

Happening to me too, been like this since a week and can't do anything about it, please fix it.

Please check my original bugreport, perhaps you (@cram0 @SAN1TAR1UM @xoela) have the same issue: #5875. In short: Recheck if your phone really is on the latest build of iOS 18.
