2017-12-07
Just a minor update to fix some devices which started showing key share requests from a 'null' device.
0.6.3
2017-12-01
Another exciting update: Riot now supports key sharing! What's that, I hear you ask? Well, it means that now, if you use end-to-end encryption, Riot will share the keys for encrypted messages between all of your devices. That means if you're able to decrypt history on one device, you should now be able to see it on all your devices. Don't worry, Riot is always very careful with your keys and will only ever send them to devices you've verified, so if you haven't yet verified your other devices, you'll see a prompt letting you do so whenever a device asks for keys.
There's also a collection of other bug fixes (naturally) such as making the keyboard dark in the dark theme and fixing attachments from iCloud.
0.6.2
2017-11-15
Over the summer, we've been very lucky to have two students from Google's Summer of Code programme making Riot even better. Excitingly, this release contains all their improvements which include:
* Calls now use the proper incoming call screen, even if your phone is locked
* You can now share photos, videos and other with Riot straight from other apps with the share sheet
* Talk to Riot with Siri! You can tell Siri to place calls and send messages.
* Contents of encrypted messages can now optionally be shown in notifications
And of course our regular team has been busy fixing bugs.
0.5.6
2017-10-11
We update the app regularly so we... nah, just kidding; we went & landed all-new video conferencing support. How's that? Voice and video conferencing is now powered by Jitsi, bringing more features, better reliability and better quality. You can still join old-style conferences, but heads up that anyone who hasn't updated won't be able to join conferences started from the new version.
There's also an all-new incoming call screen and support for a helpful little guy we call Riot-bot. Plus, translations into Basque and Simplified Chinese.
And of course, it supports iOS 11.
0.5.3
2017-09-06
By popular demand, Riot now has a dark theme! Flip it on in settings to make the display easier on the eyes at night time, for dark places or just for extra stealth. Also it'll save some battery power if you happen to have a phone with the appropriate type of screen...
We also fixed a crash that happened the first time you try to send a photo.
0.5.2
2017-08-11
Translations! Thanks to lots of people in our awesome community, Riot can now speak Dutch, German and French!
Oh, but there's more. Riot now supports audio attachments and supports the user search API which makes it much easier to find who you want to talk to (in other words, you don't have to remember their username). Oh, and now room joins and leaves will be collapsed together unless you tap on them to expand them. Good for people who enter a room, forget what they came in for and then leave again. Hey, it happens with age.
Also messages with just emoji are bigger, because what's better than a smiley poo? A massive smiley poo, that's what.
0.4.2
2017-07-07
Riot's had a makeover! The new home screen shows you more of your conversations at a glance so you can pick up right where you left off. Want to get more specific? See your favourites in their own tab, your direct chats and contacts in another and your group chats in the 'rooms' tab.
As if that wasn't enough for one release, you can also see exactly where you read up to last time in a room, on any of your devices. Plus of course, lots more little features and bug fixes.
0.3.13
2017-03-27
Riot now supports registering your phone number with your account, so now you can find contacts on Riot from your phone book as well as your email address book!
We've also made a whole load of improvements to end to end encryption to make it more reliable and simpler to use, including warning you if sending an encrypted message would mean sending it to devices you've never seen before.
0.3.9
2017-02-15
* Import and export your end to end encryption keys
* Massively improve disk usage. Now Riot should take up a lot less space on your phone.
And of course we fixed a load of bugs, including one where it would get stuck at the loading screen sometimes. Also one where messages appeared to take much longer to send than they actually did.
