Changes in this version:
- Conversations are now preserved by default. Messages no longer disappear after 24 hours. Users can manually choose snap or 24h mode from the conversation settings.
- Unread messages remain visible regardless of age, so users never lose a message they have not yet opened.
- Multi-image upload: send up to five photos at once in a chat.
- Daily image-send limit raised from two to six for standard accounts.
- Conversation deletion is now one-sided soft-delete: the chat disappears only for the user who deleted it, while the other party keeps their full history.
- Improved blocking: when you block a user, the conversation disappears only on your side and is unaffected for the other party.
- Better in-chat image viewing: faster loading, high-quality preview with zoom, and swipe-down to dismiss.
- Refreshed bottom tab bar: modern glass look, icon-only with a tooltip showing the section name on tap.
- Discover action buttons redesigned with a colorful glass aesthetic.
- Message bubbles with subtle 3D depth and a soft glass shine.
- When an account is restricted, the remaining time is now shown precisely in days, hours, and minutes, with a live countdown in both the error message and the floating banner.
- Fixed: the first sent message now scrolls into view immediately.
- Fixed: some conversations were hidden by a stale local cache.
- General performance and stability improvements.
