Yes linguistically that’s what the those two words mean.

But in the context of a messaging app, “Multi device” becomes one singular term with a set meaning agreed upon by everybody but you, that you’re trying desperately to change by deconstructing the words it’s composed of in order to misrepresent something that you evidently like a whole lot.

No I mean me, the other people who’ve corrected you, the people who’ve downvoted you, and everyone else.
