Whatsweb app upgrade.
-
Hi,
Whatsweb has been upgraded to version 0.3.0. @alefnode has merged my work including some improvements listed bellow 🥳. The app should work correctly for all the main features. If you see something not working please do not hesitate report, as I'm working on it these days.
Improvements in current release:
-Support for notifications (if app suspending is disabled in Ubuntu Tweaks and app kept open)
-Smoother navigation with transitions
-Smoother keyboard appearance/appearance
-Avoid opening the keyboard untimely, when navigating
-Enable GPU acceleration
-Hide left panel for more pleasant interface
-Make Emoji panel usable
-Better graphical integration of navigation buttons ( back in chatview )
-Copy a message to clipboard quickly with a long push on message.
-Screensaver when the app is not foreground: hide the webview to save battery
-Fix "contact info" panel
-Fix left menus.
-Fix Upload filesImprovements yet to come in a future revision:
- Fix "new conversation" + "Archived conversation"
- Allow to download medias
- Add a notice for users about the necessity to disable suspend with "Ubuntu tweaks" to get notifications.
- Create an internal configuration menu to tweak the app (Enable/Disable notifications, gpu, screensaver, quick copy to clipboard, ... )
-
This is a great work, thank you very much!
Is there an available option to turn off the notifications sound and just have the notification text in UT?
Another thing: on my Oneplus N10, once I enter a certain chat, there is no back arrow on the top left conrner but taping there where the back arrow should be takes me back to the list of chats, so it works even though the back arrow is not visible.
Thank you again!

Normally you should NOT ear the whatsapp sound when the app is in background, or the phone locked, do you? You may ear the UT notifications sound if you haven't enable "mute mode" (or not sure how it is called in english) in the upper pannel in UT.

Hum strange, especially if the action is still triggered, do you have a screenshot? Are you possibly in dark mode (currently the color of the "back icon", and "left menu icon" does not adapt properly to dark mode, I will try to fix later)? I should still be slighlty visible in dark mode though.

Actually I am! Indeed, I can see the arrow very fainted... It's ok, really.
Regarding notification sound: I don't keep my phone on mute. So I hear the whatsapp notifications: they have the same sound as the sms notification. Is it possible to be able to turn off the whatsapp notification sound? - to have only the text notification.
The ideal would be to have the whatsapp permission to notify with sound in the UT settings app:
But also to be able to set it in the whatsapp app should be sufficient as well:
- here I have "Incoming sounds" disabled but it still notifies with sound.
