Release Notes Published

  • Quickly switch between your recent conversations using several new keyboard shortcuts. Ctrl-1 through Ctrl-9 will jump to that numbered thread, while Ctrl-Tab and Ctrl-Shift-Tab cycle forwards and backwards.
  • See who updated a group right away instead of trying to figure out whose personality best matches the new group title or avatar.
  • We added support for the new (true) blue of ultramarine for Android linked devices.
  • If a sticker is really cool, sometimes a pack of one is all you need (and you can do that now). If a wolf is really cool, scientists say that's still not enough for a pack though. Maybe someday. Thanks, @iomintz!
  • Conversation titles are no longer displayed in a truncated form when they don't need to be. Thanks, @noelleleigh!
  • Signal now automatically follows your system theme settings on macOS, but you can manually choose between eternal light and permanent darkness if you refuse to be a part of the system. Thanks, @CoreyAR!
  • This release fixes the update bug that was affecting some non-admin users on macOS (issue #4095).
  • Startup speed and networking improvements. Thanks, @raksooo!
  • The unnecessary scrollbar on the About page is gone. Thanks, @kaffarell!
