Nextcloud Talk 4+

In the 7 months my partner and I have been using this as our primary source of texting. It has been getting better and better. we sent thousands of texts today in want to remain private but secure. we didn’t feel comfortable using services like iMessage. We moved to this hosted on my homelab and wow it’s been a wild ride. There are issues as with any app. but nothing game breaking. i’ve always had weird issues with iMessage and moving to this app. The amount of issues didn’t change, but what the issues were, did. In my opinion they are more manageable. but there have been frequent updates and big life improvements. my only main complaint is an update or two ago they added the little texting bubble that appears whenever someone starts typing. Like iMessage/other apps. It still does not work on this app. Never has. Wish they would get it to work. and one other annoying issue is I can’t send medium to large sized videos. it just outright fails to send them. Giving an error. so anything more than a minute long at 1080p 30fps won’t send. I’m content with this for the most part. I may switch off to a matrix server sometime. But if this app keeps improving, I will stay with it.

Hi developers I love nextcloud but if next update can fixed little things that user like me might like ,when I’m calling my friends and or family I don’t hear the ringtone, when I’m making video call I have to tell my friends hey is video maybe the person should see the video prompt before answering, call with @....and @.... should be change like missed voice call/video call.i find it creepy that when someone call me in a private chat 1:1 and hang up on their end my phone still be saying in a call it doesn’t end on the other side like that other caller can secretly call back and be listening .
Sorry for my English hope to see update soon.

I love this app but the one downside is not being able to set notification sounds. Only the default one that comes on iPhone. So if that one bugs you it’s unfortunate because you can’t change it.
