In the first months this year we concentrated very much on fixing bugs, adding features and getting releases out - and a bit less on blogging and marketing.
Might be, this is not optimal, however, i have the feeling it is better than the other way round :)
Anyway, here we are:
Never forget what is really important: Delta Chat now allows to “pin” any chat, so it is always visible atop of the chat list. In combination with the “archive chats” function, you have some nice tools to keep your things in order.
Lots of traffic-saving improvements, too many for this blogpost. We will get into details in a separate post therefore.
Instant QR-code contact setup - Delta Chat uses QR-codes for easy contact setup - no need to type in complicated e-mail addresses or to compare even more complicated fingerprints.
Built-in help and FAQ just in case you need some help, it is now just a fingertip away.
Know what to do when logging in to your e-mail provider: As you probably know, Delta Chat does not have own servers, messages are sent with the provider of your choice. For whatever reasons, some providers will require you to do some stuff before you can really use them. This is not the fault of Delta Chat - but if we know about these things, we will now show some hints on the login screen.
As most things in Delta Chat, also the provider-database and the built-in-help are integrated in the app. They do not load information from external servers, they do not track you, they cannot cause troubles on bad networks.
This is only a rough overview, there is much more, see the different changelogs for details.
Lots of new translations were started by the community - eg. Bokmål, Croatian, Esperanto, Korean, Serbian, Tamil and Telugu were just added to the apps. They are all already pretty usable, however, if you want help on translating missing snippets, you are very welcome at https://www.transifex.com/delta-chat/
The new features will be available as updates in the known stores soon or already today at https://get.delta.chat - for Android, iOS and also already partly for Desktop.
