1.48.6
Unsent drafts are cleared when you sign out.
VoxaraChangelogEvery release, newest first. The app updates itself; these are the notes it shows.
Unsent drafts are cleared when you sign out.
A notification sound for DMs, mentions and replies to you, heard from another tab or window. Replies to your messages now notify like mentions. Settings > Notifications > Sound.
Fixes screen sharing showing a blank picture when sharing a whole screen.
Settings > About > Other versions: go back to a previous version after a bad update, or forward again. This build is the security floor: nothing older can connect.
GIFs keep their space before they load, so the view no longer jumps when one arrives.
GIFs from the picker show as the picture, not a link. The GIF picker no longer runs off the bottom of the window.
GIF button next to emoji. Forum posts can be deleted by their author or a moderator. The view stays at the latest message while pictures load, and images keep their space before loading.
Forum posts: the author or a moderator can change a post's tags, from a right-click on the post or the tag button when the post is open.
Forum tags: moderators can add, rename and remove a forum's tags from a Manage tags button on the forum itself.
Channel permissions now show in the app: channels you cannot view are hidden, and the message box is disabled where you cannot post.
Unsent messages are kept per conversation: switch away and back, or restart, and your draft is still there.
Screen share: window previews and shares now capture the window itself on Windows, even when covered, and the picker's previews keep updating.
Channel mentions now work for names with emoji or symbols in them.
Mention channels: type # in a space to pick one, and #channel names in messages become links.
Fixes Check for updates, which refused the update server since 1.46.2.
Right-click a message for Reply, Reply in thread, Forward and Pin. Messages from people who are not on your friends list now show under Direct messages in the Friends tab.
Screen share can include what your computer plays (tick Share audio in the picker, Windows). Clicking another voice channel now moves you straight there.
Settings > Account: sign out of other devices. Oversized pictures are shared as files instead of inline images.
New Beta Tester profile badge.
Smaller download: the installer no longer bundles server files it never used.
Fixes sign-in on 1.46.2: the app could not reach the server through voxaraspace.com.
Security: the app now connects through voxaraspace.com only and refuses any invalid certificate. Uploaded files are encrypted at rest on the server.
Invite links now use voxaraspace.com/invite/CODE. Older join links keep working.
Invite links: share a voxaraspace.com/join link, send it to friends in one click, and invite cards in chat with a Join button. New in-game voice overlay (Settings > Chat) showing who is talking over your game.
Update plumbing for launch.
Search now has three scopes: this channel, this space, everywhere.
Voice: noise suppression and echo cancellation settings, an input sensitivity slider and push to talk (Settings, Chat, Voice). Read receipts: a small Seen mark under your last direct message once it has been read. GIF picker in the composer (when the server has GIF search on). Phone-sized windows get a menu button to open the sidebar. New accounts are asked to confirm their email; a sign-in from a new address emails you. Space owners can list their space on voxaraspace.com/discover. Bots can declare what they do, shown on their profile.
Slash commands: type / in a space to see the commands its bots offer, with autocomplete. Invite links: voxaraspace.com/join/<code> opens straight into a space (in the app or your browser). Voxara now stays in the tray when you close the window, so messages and mentions keep notifying; turn that off in Settings if you prefer.
Delete your account from Settings, Account (permanent; spaces you own with other people must be handed over or deleted first). Forgot your password with no recovery codes? The sign-in screen can email you a reset link.
The sign-in screen now links to the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
Fix: bands of static along the window edges on Windows. Animated GIFs now work as profile pictures, banners, space icons and bot pictures (up to 8 MB; 512x512 for pictures, 1600x640 for banners). With reduce flashing on, animated pictures show their first frame.
Fix: forum channels sometimes showed a blank area instead of the posts (after a reconnect or a display change). New posts now also appear in the list live.
Fix: your own speaking ring did not light after joining a voice channel until someone else connected. The microphone meter now starts the moment you join.
Webhook URLs are now short: voxaraspace.com/wh/<id>/<token>, about half the length. Existing long URLs keep working; reset a webhook to get the short form.
Webhook URLs and the Developer Portal link now use voxaraspace.com.
Fix: after a brief connection drop while in a voice channel, your own entry vanished from the channel list (and others no longer saw you there) although you were still connected. The app now re-registers in the channel when it reconnects and repairs any peer link that died in the gap. Webhooks no longer appear in the member list.
Screen sharing: a LIVE mark next to anyone sharing in a voice channel, with Watch to open their stream full size (joins the channel for you if needed). Shares now target 1080p at 60 fps with a sharper-text encoder setting and a much higher bitrate ceiling. Webhooks no longer appear in the member list.
Two-factor authentication: add a six-digit code from any authenticator app to your sign-in (Settings, Account). Backup codes cover a lost phone. Also: security hardening from a full audit, and the bot documentation in the Developer Portal.
Security hardening: media links no longer carry your session token (a separate media-only token is used, so proxy logs never hold a credential), security headers on every response, ceilings on spaces, channels, threads, reactions and bookmarks, and smaller fixes from a full audit.
Voice: much more accurate speaking indicator. Right-click someone in a voice channel to mute them for yourself, set their volume, move them or kick them from voice; click them for their profile card. Drag people between voice channels (new Move members permission). No more floating call widget for space voice. Fixed the flash when switching back to the app. Threads: the member list shows everyone in the thread, moderators can lock threads, forums have slow mode. Role colours on names. Edit and delete your own messages from the right-click menu, in DMs and spaces. Kick and ban from the right-click menu. Steam linking now explains what friends can see.
