@Schlicki2808 Actually, it's me (Lothar). Great to hear that you like the app. Dekko runs a daemon in the background for notifications. There are some technical reasons why this is not so easy for DeltaTouch (let me know if you like to hear the details, it's a little bit complex). Maybe the situation will be different in the future as the use of the library provided by the Delta team that DeltaTouch is based upon will undergo some changes which might make a daemon easier to realize - not sure about that though.

For the time being, notifications depend a little bit whether you're on xenial or on focal. In any case, if background suspension is disabled for DeltaTouch, you will receive notifications if the app is running and in background. In xenial, disabling background suspension can be achieved via UT Tweak Tool. For focal, it can be done via command line (see below), or (as far as I know) a certain git version of UT Tweak Tool has to be build by yourself.

On xenial, if the app is in foreground, you will receive notifications for all accounts that are not the currently selected account (if in chatlist view) or, if you are currently viewing a chat, you will receive notifications for all conversations/accounts except for this specific chat.

On focal, UT currently suppresses any notifications for the app that is currently in foreground, I can't do anything about that.

Disabling background suspension in focal via command line (thanks to Danfro for instructions):

1. Fetch current suspended apps:

gsettings get com.canonical.qtmir lifecycle-exempt-appids

2. Add DeltaTouch to the list (the following assumes that the output of the previous command gave ['com.ubuntu.music'], please adapt to the output of your device):

gsettings set com.canonical.qtmir lifecycle-exempt-appids "['com.ubuntu.music', 'deltatouch.lotharketterer']"

@UBportsNews Many thanks to Alfred for the possibility to encrypt personal data, really great! In the release notes of 24.04-1.0, it's stated that the feature needs to be enabled per-device, and indeed there seem to be some devices where it hasn't landed yet. How likely is it that the feature will be available for all noble devices eventually?

@oli.sax I asked regarding this in the "UBports Welcome & Install help [English]" Telegram channel back in April. Someone responded "oh crap i forgot to fix that". I did not follow up as it was not that important to me.

@Opolork Maybe some more tips regarding DeltaTouch:

• You are not restricted to the "Saved Messages" chat. To sort your stuff somewhat, you can create as many groups as you want with yourself as the only member. All these groups will be synchronized with all your devices running DeltaTouch or any other Delta Chat app that also have this profile (added as second device or via backup import).
• Check out Webxdc Apps: There are, e.g., editor apps, todo lists and shopping lists. Their contents and status will also be synchronized with the members of the chat (your devices only, if you are the only member of a group). These apps are running fully local, and except with the chat members, no data is shared with any third party or website. Just click the "+" at the bottom of a chat and select "Apps".

@pparent For my app, this works: https://codeberg.org/lk108/deltatouch/src/commit/d734cab514c0ee0c465b759d46c05ada322f58ca/src/plugins/DeltaHandler/notificationsLomiriPostal.cpp#L345
(but only if the app is not currently shown to the user)
