SUMMARY
***
The Windows application notified me of a WhatsApp message that I have received on my Android phone. I used Windows to send a reply to that message. The Windows KDE Connect application then sent me my own reply, as a notification, on Windows, and sent a notification to the Android phone, where that notification contained the aforementioned reply.
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set up KDE Connect on Windows and Android phone.
2. Receive WhatsApp message and, on Windows, a notification of it.
3. Use Windows to reply to the message

OBSERVED RESULT

1) The Windows KDE Connect application sent me my own reply, as a notification, on Windows
2) A notification, containing my reply, appeared on the Android phone.

EXPECTED RESULT

Neither 1 nor 2 should occur. That they do makes it pretty much impossible to use KDE Connect for Windows-and-Android.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: Windows 10 Pro - 22H2 (2009: 19045)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

None.
