It is safe to do, and you can always toggle it off, if needed - the address itself does not change. + +Once you do it, the app will be creating a new business chat with each connecting customer where multiple people can participate. Business chat is a hybrid of one-to-one and group conversation. In the list of chats you will see customer names and avatars, and the customer will see your business name and avatar, like with one-to-one conversations. But inside it works as a group, allowing customer to see who sent the message, and allowing you to add other participants from the business side, for delegation and escalation of customer questions. + +This can be done manually, or you can automate these conversations using bots that can answer some customer questions and then add a human to the conversation when appropriate or requested by the customer. We will be offering more bot-related features to the app and a simpler way to program bots very soon - watch our announcements. + +### Better user experience + + + +**Chat navigation** + +This has been a long-standing complaint from the users: *why does the app opens conversations on the last message, and not on the first unread message*? + +Android and desktop apps now open the chat on the first unread message. It will soon be done in the iOS app too. + +Also, the app can scroll to the replied message anywhere in the conversation (when you tap it), even if it was sent a very long time ago. + +**See who reacted!** + +This is a small but important change - you can now see who reacted to your messages! + +### Improving notifications in iOS app + +iOS notifications in a decentralized network is a complex problems. We [support iOS notifications](./20220404-simplex-chat-instant-notifications.md#ios-notifications-require-a-server) from early versions of the app, focussing on preserving privacy as much as possible. But the reliability of notifications was not good enough. + +We solved several problems of notification delivery in this release: +- messaging servers no longer lose notifications while notification servers are restarted. +- Apple can drop notifications while your device is offline - about 15-20% of notifications are dropped because of it. The servers and the new version of the app work around this problem by delivering several last notifications, to show notifications correctly even when Apple drops them. + +With these changes the iOS notifications remained as private and secure as before. The notifications only contain metadata, without the actual messages, and even the metadata is end-to-end encrypted between SimpleX notification servers and the client device, inaccessible to Apple push notification servers. + +There are two remaining problems we will solve soon: +- iOS only allows to use 25mb of device memory when processing notifications in the background. This limit didn't change for many years, and it is challenging for decentralized design. If the app uses more memory, iOS kills it and the notification is not shown – approximately 10% of notifications can be lost because of that. +- for notifications to work, the app communicates with the notification server. If the user puts the app in background too quickly, the app may fail to enable notification for the new contacts. We plan to change clients and servers to delegate this task to messaging servers, to remove the need for this additional communication entirely, without any impact on privacy and security. This will happen early next year. ## SimpleX network diff --git a/blog/README.md b/blog/README.md index 97ccffda9a..1432d95de5 100644 --- a/blog/README.md +++ b/blog/README.md @@ -1,6 +1,15 @@ # Blog -Nov 25, 2025 [Servers operated by Flux - true privacy and decentralization for all users](./20241125-servers-operated-by-flux-true-privacy-and-decentralization-for-all-users.md) +Dec 10, 2024 [SimpleX network: preset servers operated by Flux, business chats and more with v6.2 of the apps](./20241210-simplex-network-v6-2-servers-by-flux-business-chats.md) + +- SimpleX Chat and Flux made an agreement to include Flux-operated servers into the app to improve metadata privacy in SimpleX network. +- Business chats for better privacy and support of your customers. +- Better user experience: open on the first unread, jump to quoted messages, see who reacted. +- Improving notifications in iOS app. + +-- + +Nov 25, 2024 [Servers operated by Flux - true privacy and decentralization for all users](./20241125-servers-operated-by-flux-true-privacy-and-decentralization-for-all-users.md) - Welcome, Flux - the new servers in v6.2-beta.1! - What's the problem? diff --git a/blog/images/20241210-business.png b/blog/images/20241210-business.png new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..407ed66a94 Binary files /dev/null and b/blog/images/20241210-business.png differ diff --git a/blog/images/20241210-operators-1.png b/blog/images/20241210-operators-1.png new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..863bd00822 Binary files /dev/null and b/blog/images/20241210-operators-1.png differ diff --git a/blog/images/20241210-operators-2.png b/blog/images/20241210-operators-2.png new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..85e599c827 Binary files /dev/null and b/blog/images/20241210-operators-2.png differ diff --git a/blog/images/20241210-reactions.png b/blog/images/20241210-reactions.png new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..6de8ba8f07 Binary files /dev/null and b/blog/images/20241210-reactions.png differ diff --git a/scripts/desktop/make-appimage-linux.sh b/scripts/desktop/make-appimage-linux.sh index 5084a0276d..6cc7aac011 100755 --- a/scripts/desktop/make-appimage-linux.sh +++ b/scripts/desktop/make-appimage-linux.sh @@ -40,10 +40,10 @@ if [ ! -f ../appimagetool-x86_64.AppImage ]; then wget --secure-protocol=TLSv1_3 https://github.com/AppImage/appimagetool/releases/download/continuous/appimagetool-x86_64.AppImage -O ../appimagetool-x86_64.AppImage chmod +x ../appimagetool-x86_64.AppImage fi -if [ ! -f ../runtime-fuse3-x86_64 ]; then - wget --secure-protocol=TLSv1_3 https://github.com/AppImage/type2-runtime/releases/download/old/runtime-fuse3-x86_64 -O ../runtime-fuse3-x86_64 - chmod +x ../runtime-fuse3-x86_64 +if [ ! -f ../runtime-x86_64 ]; then + wget --secure-protocol=TLSv1_3 https://github.com/AppImage/type2-runtime/releases/download/continuous/runtime-x86_64 -O ../runtime-x86_64 + chmod +x ../runtime-x86_64 fi -../appimagetool-x86_64.AppImage --runtime-file ../runtime-fuse3-x86_64 . +../appimagetool-x86_64.AppImage --runtime-file ../runtime-x86_64 . mv *imple*.AppImage ../../ diff --git a/website/src/_includes/blog_previews/20241125.html b/website/src/_includes/blog_previews/20241125.html index 2a73e9ec9b..8e71807c0b 100644 --- a/website/src/_includes/blog_previews/20241125.html +++ b/website/src/_includes/blog_previews/20241125.html @@ -1,5 +1,3 @@ -
