Share the take-out number for your favorite restaurant without taking out your phone. - New support for high-resolution "jumbomoji" adds larger-than-life detail to large emoji, especially on big screens with small pixels. - We also updated the Sticker Creator to support the latest Emoji, so today's stickers are no longer stuck with yesterday's Unicode standard. * Thu Jun 27 2024 Udo Seidel 7.14.0-1 - If you're tired of losing your voice, we fixed a bug where switching to another chat or application while recording a voice message could cause that message to disappear.

Whether you're adding the missing letters in a lazy friend's profile name, or a reminder about where you met, notes and nicknames provide a convenient and secure way to jot down additional details about your Signal Connections — and they're end-to-end encrypted and protected by your Signal PIN so they can be securely restored if you lose your phone too. - Now you can minimize Signal to your system tray on Linux. If your taskbar is the right shade of gray, it’s like your messages are waiting for you on a silver platter. - For users on Windows, this update re-enables support for detailed unread message counts on the Signal icon.

You can change this in Settings. - You can now set and share an optional username to let people chat with you without giving them your phone number. - A new privacy setting lets you control who can find you by your phone number on Signal. * Thu Feb 22 2024 Udo Seidel 6.48.1-1 - see below * Tue Feb 20 2024 Udo Seidel 6.48.0-1 - Video and audio playback will now pause whenever the Signal window is closed and minimized in the system tray.

If you want to “🙂” whenever you type “:-)”, you can enable this feature in the “Chats” section of your Signal Desktop settings. - A new keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+s/Cmd+s) helps you quickly save pictures and videos from the media viewer. - It’s too bad that we already made a New Year's Resolution joke in the release notes for the last update, because we just increased the maximum resolution for screen sharing during Signal video calls. Our new resolution is to avoid any resolution puns until 2025. - Thanks to @dasois [github.com] and @pelya [github.com] for their contributions to this release! * Thu Jan 18 2024 Udo Seidel 6.44.1-1 - see previous * Thu Jan 11 2024 Udo Seidel 6.44.0-1 - If resolving a few small bugs counts as a New Year’s resolution, then 2024 is off to a fantastic start. - Region-neutral font fallback logic improves how CJK characters are displayed across different locales. - Thanks to @0o001 [github.com], @hackerbirds [github.com], @rschiang [github.com], @vijithassar [github.com], and @yaslama [github.com] for their contributions to this release! * Tue Jan 09 2024 Udo Seidel 6.43.2-1 - see previous * Fri Jan 05 2024 Udo Seidel 6.43.1-1 -see previous * Thu Jan 04 2024 Udo Seidel 6.43.0-1 - Turn a missed call into something that won't be missed.
