1. Kontalk 4.1.3 - Android runtime permissions + a lot more
  
  from Kontalk forum
  
  Enough with the waiting! At last, this first 2018 release comes with a bunch of stuff. Here is a quick list of the biggest improvements. P.S.Sorry for the lack of screenshots this time, I couldn’t do them. Android 6 runtime permissions We are finally providing support for Android Marshmallow runtime permissions. Some are optional to give, others are mandatory. The app will ask you the needed permissions now at the right moment. Direct reply for older Android versions For those of you still using Android 6 or lower (including myself), a brand new “Reply” acti...

1. Kontalk 4.1.2 - contextual reply + workaround for boot loop issue
  
  from Kontalk forum
  
  Hello! I wanted to wait a bit before releasing this version to fix some other bugs, but a boot loop issue in some devices had me to release early. Here is a quick summary of the changes. Contextual reply You can now reply to a particular message by long-tapping on it and use the reply button in the toolbar. The replied message will appear as context to the reply you’ll send. Fix boot loop issue Cyanogenmod/LineageOS introduced a bug that caused many apps to trigger a boot loop, rendering the...

  from Kontalk forum
  
  An update and a heads-up: 4.1.1 is now available in F-Droid, but in my case it is suffering from the ugly boot loop bug: Hopefully this will be fixed in future releases.

1. Kontalk 4.1.0 - Location sharing and much more
  
  from Kontalk forum
  
  After four betas, here is the final release: From the latest beta, this is mainly a bugfix release plus a few minor additions (details in the changelog). One particular new feature is the ability to enable a foreground service notification to keep Kontalk running even when low on resources, after a user reported this problem. Although having a sticky notification while Kontalk is running is not the best way, the Android platform is forcing us to do so when running low on resources. The rele...

1. Kontalk is moving to Docker
  
  from Kontalk forum
  
  As some of you may already know, our server test instance has been running on Docker for a while now. It is working quite well and it brought many improvements and advantages over the old manually-managed instance. I worked quite hard to make it working because I wanted to dedicate more time to the apps and less time to the server, the result is in this brand new repository on GitHub available for anyone to test out and play. Feel free to open issues or ask for help in the forum, we’ll help as ...

  Hello folks! This very nice sunday features a new Kontalk beta version with location sharing from the great work of @a.cappelli87 and a few final touches by myself. [Screenshot_2017-09-10-19-12-03] [Screenshot_2017-09-10-19-12-31] Please note that the basic version only supports OpenStreetMaps and doesn’t support POIs detection nearby.

1. Looking back to 2016. Leaping forward into 2017
  
  from Kontalk forum
  
  I’m currently seeing a lot of arguments in the XMPP mailing lists about the future of OMEMO/whatever-its-name-will-be. There are disagreements on which encryption protocols to use, even I don’t have a completely clear idea of what that all is about, there is something about licences and interoperability… anyway what is clear to me is that the community (and the XSF itself) is not really stable on this yet (and it’s not really their fault actually), and I’m a bit worried about it. In the end, I’...

1. Location sharing has been merged
  
  from Kontalk forum
  
  A few minutes ago, after many weeks of work by @a.cappelli87 and myself, location sharing branch was merged. It will be available in the upcoming 4.1.0 release with many other improvements and fixes. We’ll probably do a beta release first though - both Google Play and F-Droid. My spare time is very limited at this time, that’s why my presence is so scarce and I’m sorry about that, I’ll try to be more present and productive. I want to see Kontalk grow too 🙂 See you soon for the nex...

  We all know how it is with Facebook, Google, etc. For example when Facebook suddenly suggests people as friends while there shouldn't be any possibility where it knows about the connection. What's your most interestin experience about it?
