This month was dedicated to fixing bugs and improving the usability.
Besides that, I updated to WinUI 2.7 from WinUI 2.5 and updated a bunch of UI light and dark theme inconsistencies.

Since UWPX is one of the few clients that support the "latest" OMEMO (0.7.0 (2020-09-05)) standard, I added a status indicator when enabling OMEMO, informing you if your contact supports it.

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:
