        @pparent I have battery saver installed and I have my data off when not on wifi thus whatsweb does not consume battery since it has no internet.

        Yes, I would love to test versions before they are released to openstore!

          Even without internet the js and webassembly scripts keep running in the webview (if it is not suspended)... If it's hidden it's optimized so that it's mainly background workers that stay working.

          Great I'll tell you when I have the next revision finalized on my side, probably next week, and we'll see how we can do.

          Though if you know how to compile an app I publish my code as I go : https://github.com/pparent76/whatsweb
          (Note that in this repo I work with an app id "whatsapp.pparent", so it will not override your app from the openstore)

            @mihael and everyone,

            I have a question: are you currently using noble or focal, and what's your feedback about the app scaling? (Is it too big? too small? Does it display correctly?)

            I noticed that for me the upgrade ( Vollaphone 22 ) changes quite dramatically scaling in some apps, and especially in the browser, and webview based apps. Everything is way bigger than it was.

            In particular in my whatsweb, for me with focal everything was a bit small but ok, there was no display problem. But with Noble it's too zoomed in, and there are display problems, the messages and images don't fit in the screen. I've had to apply a zoom factor of 0.88 to the webview.

            So I think one of the important features will be to allow users to users to set the scaling of the app+ fontsize, but also it would be nice to find automatically a nice value.

            [EDIT] I've done a quick tinkering, to adapt webview zoom factor automatically and make font size more pleasant, It will need to be tested on another device.

              @pparent I have a N10 on focal and a N100 on noble. Whatsaweb looks perfect on both, no problem with the scaling.

              On another note, and I don't know if this is something that can be easily fixed: when I forward a message, it does the forwarding but then there is no back arrow from the chat. I have to restart the app. This has been with the previous version of the app as well.

                Ok Nice you will be able to test it. With latest revision normally you will have fontsize a bit bigger, that to me seems more pleasant to read, and more on par with Android app.

                I see, it will be solved in latest release, alongside other situations where you could be stuck.

                                Hum this is strange because for me audio messages work perfectly!

                                Are you running UT 20.04 or 24.04? What phone model?

                                Does restarting the app, or rebooting the phone have any effect on this problem?

                                Can you make a screen video so that we can see what happens in details?

                                  By the way very strange that it would not work on molly! In that case, it's most probably more a problem specific to microphone support in your phone, and not a problem with the app. Try to see if rebooting the phone has any effect on this.

                                    Can you try to record yourself with the dictaphone app, and see if it works?

                                      @pparent Hey pparent, hopefully it is not the phone, because I just bought it.
                                      I will sort it out on the weekend. Thanks first of all.

                                          So, my smartphone is a Xiaomi POCCO C3 NFC.

                                          I tried to adjust an screenshot, but on Dekko 2, the mail with the screenshot to my laptop stuck in drafts, so I could not send it.

                                          But imagen, that the line with the text massage is flat and not "zickzack" respectively "hilly".

                                          A popup come for a second, to allow to use the microphone. But the second its to short to allow it.

                                          In android i could open "apps" - "whatsapp" an "allow using the microphone". But on UT I could not find this adjustment.

                                          On my old phone I used the dictaphone app a lot. But on UT it nether work.

                                          Ok, I just reboot the phone, and now everything works.
                                          Since I use UT (around two weeks), it change. Somtimes the microphone works, somtimes not.

                                          But I can make calls all the time normaly.

                                              You're problems are unrelated to Whatsweb app, if the dictaphone does not work, it means it's a problem with the support of the mic on your device. Do not hesitate to open a topic in Support section if you need help.
