[2.0.0]

Breaking changes:

  • To let users join when the owner is offline we made changes that broke backwards compatibility, so you will need to create a new community and re-invite members. Need help migrating? help@quiet.chat

New Features:

  • Users can join a community when its owner is offline. This was a big one!
  • Desktop and mobile users can send markdown messages. (Thanks again @josephlacey!)
  • Desktop users can now export chats to a text file. (Thanks @rajdip-b!)

Improvements:

  • Prettier message loading indicator on mobile
  • Better descriptions of the joining process
  • Validation of community metadata and certificates
  • A real iOS launch screen (so long, "Powered by React Native"!)
  • A nice splash screen on mobile until the joining/creating screens are ready
  • Clearer autoupdate language in the update modal, so users know that the app will update on restart

Fixes:

  • Mobile apps should no longer crash on restart.
  • Joining community no longer gets stuck on "initiating backend modules."
  • Invalid peer addresses in peer list are now filtered out, and peer list is updated in localdb.
  • Peers now dial new users without having to restart.
  • Up/down arrows are now working properly inside channel input. (Thanks @josephlacey!)
  • Long messages are no longer truncated in channelInput component.
  • Users can change between "join community" and "create community" screens without errors about a missing required field.
  • On iOS, there's more weird empty space between the input field and the soft keyboard.
  • The UI for users already in a community joining a new community is no longer misleading, so users will not accidentally leave a community by opening a new invite link.
  • Desktop settings now open the "invite" tab by default, as they were meant to.
  • We now initialize electron-store after setting appData to prevent creating an empty "Quiet" data directory.

Notes

  • Quiet now labels duplicate unregistered usernames
  • Quiet shows an full-screen warning for duplicate registered usernames, since these should never happen and indicate a potential compromise.
  • For authenticating connections, Quiet now uses libp2p's Pre-shared Key Based Private Networks instead of X.509 certificates so peers can connect before registering.
