Delta Chat 0.9.5 - "Get your data out of there"-Release
October 08, 2017 by Björn Petersen
Here is Delta Chat 0.9.5 with a new backup functionality. The function writes all relavant data to a single file - this includes all chats, images, contacts, videos, voice messages, all files and more. When you reinstall the app later - either on another device or from another source -, you can import the exported file just in the “Welcome” screen. Very useful :)
Further changes are …
- Backup export and import function
- Query password before export
- Move replies from normal E-Mail-Clients to the “Chats” folder
- Improve helping MUAs on showing chat threads
- Improve onboarding
- Add URL to default footer
- Test a different approach for battery saving in this release
- Update French, Italian, German, Polish, Portuguese, Russian and Ukrainian translations
… we did not finish the “reduce unwanted messages” issues and there are still some things to test for battery - however, we did not want you to wait too long for the other features - so, here it is - as always available on F-Droid in the next time.
BTW: Also this homepage is translateable - our newest language is Russian - delta.chat/ru - Спасибо, Dmitry!
And another thing: We are always searching for testing devices. If you have some older, but functional, Android or iOS (!) devices in your drawer - if you do not need them any more, feel free to send them to Delta Chat, Friedrich-Ebert-Str. 1 B, 25348 Glückstadt, Germany
