Pigeon release note 2.0.0011

Release date: 02/12/2023

v.2.0.0011 is an interim release of Pigeon. The application has been built from the bottom and up. If a pop-up message displays "This version of Signal has expired", it is an error message; the version of Pigeon has expired. Please ensure to back up your conversations before uninstalling and reinstalling Pigeon.

New features

  • Interval: This option can be found in the settings menu and will regulate with what interval Pigeon is checking for new messages. Turning these settings to a lower number will decrease the toll on the battery.

Changes:

  • Version number: The version number of Pigeon has changed.
  • Re-base: Pigeon has been updated to Signal 6.34.5

Known issues

  • Set-up: It is not possible to select image tiles with the Punkt. key during the CAPTCHA test. It is necessary to use the numerical key '5' instead.
  • Voice messages: The duration of a voice message isn't displayed when dictating the message.
  • Voice messages: It is impossible to adjust the volume while listening to a voice message.
  • Conversations: Tagging functions are not enabled on Pigeon while typing messages.

  • Calling: While on a call, the 'on a call' indicator isn't shown on the screen.
  • Conversations: It is impossible to start a conversation with a voice message. Text messages must be exchanged first.
  • Calling: The call will drop if a call is answered on speakerphone.
  • UI: There are menu screens with a lack of focus highlight.
  • UI: Several pop-ups retain the default Android UI design.
