    another.im 0.5 · 2026-10-15 → 2026-10-16 · tag v0.5.9

    A big redesign in two days. 0.5.2 brought a new first start, the device's own app lock, working video calls and a Telegram-style account menu; the versions after it were fixes, mostly for Linux. 0.5.0, 0.5.1 and 0.5.5 were never released. On libtacky 1.0.0-rc5 → rc7.

    0.5.9 — 2026-10-16

    • Linux: pasting with an empty clipboard no longer crashes the app (a WebKitGTK bug, kept away until the fix reaches the runtime).
    • The XML console lives in the account menu's More only; it records while it is open.

    0.5.8 — 2026-10-16

    • The desktop app no longer crashes on quit, and the last changes are saved.
    • Linux: dropping a file on the window attaches it again instead of blanking the window.
    • A device whose key hasn't arrived yet can't be trusted ahead of it.
    • The XML console opens in its own window on the desktop.

    0.5.7 — 2026-10-16

    • The Linux AppImage is back, now running on Ubuntu 22.04, Debian 12, Rocky and AlmaLinux 9 and newer.
    • The details or People column steps aside when the window is too narrow.

    0.5.6 — 2026-10-16

    • Linux Flatpak: push notifications finally work, and a push can start the closed app.
    • The app opens on the account you last had in front.
    • Fixes: devices stay in place while you set their trust; a menu closes when the window is resized.

    0.5.4 — 2026-10-16

    • Tapping a push from a room opens the room, also when the tap starts the app.

    0.5.3 — 2026-10-16

    • Fixes: Linux keeps selected text selected; Tab types a tab in the message field; no scrollbar in the empty field at 125 %; a cleaner title bar shadow; Android's status-bar icon has its proper size.

    0.5.2 — 2026-10-15

    • A new first start: "Encrypt your data?" (the key stays in the device's key store, a recovery key is shown once), then sign-in on your provider's own page.
    • The app lock is your device's own: fingerprint, face or screen lock on Android, Windows Hello, Touch ID. No app PIN any more; Android hides the app from recents and screenshots while locked.
    • Video calls on desktop and Android, with a new call screen (security emoji, device switching) and calls shown as bubbles in the chat.
    • An account menu after Telegram's, New window on the desktop, Contact info on one page, Service discovery, Settings starting with Accounts.
    • A shield on each encrypted message shows trust and OMEMO version; messages from refused keys are red; keys to review in a small card.
    • Rooms: a timed mute goes back to mentions only, People open beside the chat, threads open beside it on a wide screen.
    • One status text for all your devices; messages keep their own times after the phone slept.
    • Fixes: touching the window edge no longer crashes GNOME Shell; Telegram @usernames can be looked up; old Android WebViews get an update hint. No AppImage in this release.

    Downloads (0.5.9): Android (apk, and a build with Google Play services for FCM push), Windows (installer), Linux (Flatpak and AppImage). No macOS build is kept for this line. Checksums are in SHA256SUMS.
