      Ps: An imporant feature for me would be to be able to enable/disable notifications globally. Because right now if I don't want to get Whatsapp notification, it is a problem if I have greeline installed.

      Ps2 : I see that Whatsapp recognizes greeline as an Android client, not a Whatsapp web client.

        @pparent Thanks for the feedback, 100% agree with you. I think Whatsnew will always be ahead in terms of features, the goal of this project is to have a more "native" chat experience, specially while we don't have Mir 2 in stable branch.

        There's still a ton of work to be done, as you noticed. Need to support all message types, improve the performance and usability of the pages and decide on which features from whatsapp web implement here. My goal is to have the essentials to have a good chat experience in UT, this will stay in alpha for a while 🙂

                        New release: message prior this release can look strange because of a refactor I did, to avoid problems disconnect your whatsapp account in settings and reconnect after installing this update

                        https://github.com/brennoflavio/greenline/releases

                        • Draft support: typing in a chat will save your message next time you get back to that chat
                        • Complete rework of how this app handles notifications, which should enable new features for specific message types in the future
                        • Fix a bug that made the user avatar go away when downloading media in a group chat
                        • Mentions should be rendered correctly now, including notifications
                        • Simplified the unread count bubble (although its a big buggy now)
                        • Centralized name resolution, now the app is consistent when showing names across replies, chat lists, headers, etc
                        • Fixed a bug if you start a chat, the chat will have your name
                        • Full support for edited messages: now the new text is shown with an edited badge, and you can edit your own messages aswell
