8 Cases considered:
(Silent Switch toggled vs. Silent Switch not-toggled)
x (App in Foreground vs. App in Background)
x (CallKit vs. NonCallKit)
CallKit already does the "right thing"
// FREEBIE
* Ensure NotificationsManager has dependencies
Otherwise it's easy to mess up the order of the required dependencies.
* move AccountManager into Environment, it's heavy to construct
// FREEBIE
For consistency with the Android and Desktop client behavior.
* Show a placeholder avatar when no image, initials (#1512)
If all we know about the user is their phone number, their avatar image
is rendered as a placeholder. Previously, it would render the first few
characters of their phone number as if they were initials (eg. "+")
* Rename, extend OWSContactsManager methods (#1512)
Rename from: nameStringForPhoneIdentifier
to: displayNameForPhoneIdentifier
Also, add:
- (BOOL)nameExistsForPhoneIdentifier:(NSString *)identifier;
Which reports whether there's any "name" for a contact.
* Remove unused typedefs
These aren't used in the project anymore, and they were causing
compiling warnings due to a lack of nullability indication.
* Resolve some OWSContactsManager nullability warnings
Did a pass through all of the existing nullability warnings in
OWSContactsManager. Tried to pick descriptors that best reflected the
behavior of the methods.
// FREEBIE
Preferred to the system contact picker because:
1. removes "group" clutter from header, unlikely to be used much.
2. can select while searching
3. fixes unified contact problem where e.g.
If only one of your contact has a phone number, they appear disabled
when choosing to invite via messaging, even though the other linked
contact *does* have a phone number.
4. label users w/o email so it's clearer why they can't be selected
Also:
* Twitter share-image was too tall
// FREEBIE
We use this to determine which legacy migrations to run.
Also, soften the "your device is too old" behavior to just exit, rather
than blow away the users installation. Ouch!
* bump version
// FREEBIE
When your partner changes their identity key (e.g. by reinstalling),
you'll see a notice alongside their message, but it will no longer
prevent the message from showing. aka "non blocking".
Existing users will be opted into the previous blocking behavior.
This is configurable for all users in Settings > Privacy.
// FREEBIE
This action was previously hidden under a secret longpress gesture in
the fingerprint view controller.
Ideally we'd never receive corrupted messages, but at the point we do,
our sessions are out of whack, and the only recovery option is to reset.
Let's help our users do that.
* Resetting session sends END_SESSION message
Otherwise the remote side wouldn't know we reset the session and will
send us a message on the old ratchet.
* Don't reset their identity key when resetting sender ratchet.
* Updated translations
// FREEBIE
* Separate registering an account from registering for push notifications
* Allows us to complete registration without prompting user for
notification settings.
UX Changes
----------
* Automatically keep push tokens in sync on startup.
Push tokens *can* change, though they rarely do. It happens more often
for people switching between appstore/beta builds.
fixes#1174
* Show alert with registration failure
* add secret 8-tap debug log gesture to registration flow
* Move registration to separate flow
* don't see flash of inbox when first launching
* show useful error messages when given wrong code / no code
* remove background fetch
We werent using it, but only relying on a side effect of it which is
no longer necessary.
Code Changes
------------
* More registration logging.
* Install PromiseKit with carthage
Our dependencies are not yet framework compatible, so we can't use
cocoapods.
* Merge preferences util "category" into superclass.
The immediate reason for this is Swift interop was assuming optional
types were not optional, and exploding when a value was nil.
This is clearer anyway, since we were treating it like a subclass, and
it was the only thing using the class anyway.
* auto-genstrings now searches *.swift (and *.h, which was previously
broken) for translateable strings.
// FREEBIE
fixes#1231
Motivation
----------
Previously when messages failed to send, there was no reason given.
Furthermore, when media messages failed to send there was no indication
that any attempt to send the message even occurred, nor a retry
dialog.
UX Changes
----------
- Show "uploading" status for media
- Show specific error message in retry-send dialog
- Only scroll to bottom when new message is inserted
- Show specific errors when group creation fails
Code Changes
-----------
- Updated incorrect references to TSMessageAdapters which were actually
references to OWSMessageData
- MessageSender was extracted from SSK MessagesManager
- access MessagesManager as property
- idiomatic init/properties for Env
- log contact intersections
- Move scroll-to-bottom animation to main thread.
// FREEBIE
* Inline #define strings, so genstrings can find them
* Make all strings single line so they don't get truncated by auto-genstrings
* Properly quote LHS in strings file
// FREEBIE
Rather than verifying eachothers keys separately, you now verify the
privacy with your recipient by sharing a single composite number or
QRCode.
This is a breaking change, in coordination with Desktop and Android.
UX
--
Fingeprint is no longer in line with identity key error. Instead you
have the option of going to the full-screen safety number verification
experience.
Overhauled fingerprint design
-----------------------------
* use same modal dismiss button as elsewhere
* remove fingerprint from settings.
* quick slide in animation vs slow fade
* existing was painfully slow
* blur effect is better metaphor for something slide over top
* anyway there was a rendering glitch in the end of fade where
underlying navbar would "snap" out
Also Fixed
----------
Always provide a name string for contact
* Centralize all the nil-checking
* Fall back to "unknown contact"
allow multi-line error messages
// FREEBIE
I botched a migration 6 months ago, which left some lingering TSRecipients serialized in our data store, laying in wait to explode the next time we enumerate every object in the database (e.g. when we add an index).
The bloom filter migration failed to remove TSRecipients in the somewhat rare event that the local user had no downloaded bloom filters. This could happen e.g. if they were low on disk space at the time of running the migration, I believe the app would remove the bloom filter cache.
// FREEBIE
On older devices with lots of data, the orphan data cleaner can time
out. Here we're trading certainty that the migration completed for
confidence that the boot process doesn't time out.
// FREEBIE
Most of the work was done in SignalServiceKit 0.0.7, this adapts to
those changes.
Migration to clean any orphaned interactions/attachments.
- don't set new migration version until migration was successful.
- remove dead code from migrations
- rename message.attachments->message.attachmentIds
- Remove unused parameter from GroupModel
- formatting touched method/'s signatures
//FREEBIE
- Use single MessagesViewController. Goal: Being able to reuse that UI
for SplitViewController on iPad. Prevents unnecessary deallocations and
re-allocations.
- Remove custom archiving UI for default swipe right to left archive
action, like in iOS Mail.app.
- DynamicType for main view.
- Simplify API of MessagesViewController to prevent undefined behavior.
//FREEBIE
- Using same clang format file for old and new files.
- Moving out all TextSecure code to allow other clients (OS X, iOS) to
integrate easily TextSecure functionality.
- Use TextSecure API to signup.
- Fixing size classes rendering bugs.
- Supporting native iOS San Francisco font.
- Quick Reply
- Settings now slide to the left as suggested in original designed
opposed to modal.
- Simplification of restraints on many screens.
- Full-API compatiblity with iOS 9 and iOS 8 legacy support.
- Customized AddressBook Permission prompt when restrictions are
enabled. If user installed Signal previously and already approved
access to Contacts, don't bugg him again.
- Fixes crash in migration for users who installed Signal <2.1.3 but hadn't signed up
yet.
- Xcode 7 / iOS 9 Travis Support
- Bitcode Support is disabled until it is better understood how exactly
optimizations are performed. In a first time, we will split out the
crypto code into a separate binary to make it easier to optimize the
non-sensitive code. Blog post with more details coming.
- Partial ATS support. We are running our own Certificate Authority at
Open Whisper Systems. Signal is doing certificate pinning to verify
that certificates were signed by our own CA. Unfortunately Apple's App
Transport Security requires to hand over chain verification to their
framework with no control over the trust store. We have filed a radar
to get ATS features with pinned certificates. In the meanwhile, ATS is
disabled on our domain. We also followed Amazon's recommendations for
our S3 domain we use to upload/download attachments. (#891)
- Implement a unified `AFSecurityOWSPolicy` pinning strategy accross
libraries (AFNetworking RedPhone/TextSecure & SocketRocket).
- Removes large confusing UX bar and related assets. Replaced with UISwitch.
- Enhanced user experience for missed calls.
- Fixes issue where missed call would appear as incoming call in call log.
- Fixing issues where PushKit handler not called on launch.
- Tap to reply to a message.
- Badges application with the number of unread messages.
- Pick up a phone call from lock screen, or decline it.
- Settings for notification sounds while app in foreground and text displayed on local notifications.
