Here we go again. A brand new releases with a bunch of fixes and a couple new features is here. This month the feature that took the most time and effort is OMEMO fingerprint trust management. It adds the option to trust OMEMO fingerprints by just scanning other peoples QR Codes. Other UI related changes include the addition of info buttons for the chat settings page.
Other than that there are no big UI related changes since I'm working on adding XMPP IoT support and trying to come up with a robust XEP for that.

Please report bugs here!

Windows Mobile in 2020

Since Microsoft will shutdown the MS Store for all Windows 10 Mobile devices by 2020 there won't be a way for me to publish any new updates for all users who still stick with there Windows Phone (besides sideloading apps).

So the last update for all devices running Windows 10 (Mobile) < 10.0.16299.0 will be made available roughly around the 20.12.2019.

If you still wan't to continue using your Windows Phone and get "regular" UWPX updates I suggest having a look at Windows 10 ARM for Lumia 950.
Battery life is not that great while you use it but beside that it's quiet usable on my Lumia 950 XL 😄

How can I get this App?

There are three ways how you can get access to the app.

1. Microsoft Store:

The simplest way is to just download it via the Microsoft Store.

2. Sideload:

If you don't want to use the Microsoft Store for getting access to UWPX you can also sideload a pre build app.
For this head over to releases and download the latest UWPX_UI_X.Y.Z.0.zip.
Once downloaded, unpack and right click Add-AppDevPackage.ps1 -> Execute with PowerShell to install it.

For this to work you first have to enable Sideload app in your Windows settings! Click here for more information about this.

3. Build it by your own

Short version:
  1. Install Visual Studio 2017
  2. Clone the repo with Visual Studio 2017
  3. Build the project for your target platform (e.g. x64)
