Since the addition of incremental loading chat messages last month, the next logical step was to add support for MAM (XEP-0313: Message Archive Management).
For this I started implementing MAM support. Currently the implementation supports retrieving archived MUC (group chat) messages.
Since it's still very much work in progress, I decided to deactivate it for now.

Nevertheless this version includes, besides all the fundamental work for MAM, a bunch of bug fixes like for #139 and #140.

Please report bugs here!

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-Installer.exe.
Once downloaded, double click it and then click on install.

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

⚠️ Windows will try to warn you that this is a malicious installation program. This is because I did not sign it with a valid developer certificate - you can ignore it. ⚠️

3. Build it by your own

Short version:
  1. Install Visual Studio 2019
  2. Clone the repository with Visual Studio 2019
  3. Build the project for your target platform (e.g. x64)
  4. Install the app on your target system:
