@pparent this is good to know basically 99% of all my stuff is on qt6 i would hate to have to refactor back to qt5
Anyway this is only a question of time before Qt6 gets integrated in the system and become the standard for app development. Now to publish a Qt6 app to the openstore you have to bundle the whole Qt6 library with you're app which might be a bit heavy, be soon this should not be a problem anymore.
shipping QT6 with a click will be blocked by the store at the moment, it needs explicit authorization.
Not sure about that I thought @bhdouglass removed this obligation. At least I've been able to publish my Qt6/QML6 based Touch piano app!
@pparent Definitely. In the first releses of beta, sound quality was awfull both on desktop and UT. Now the sound quality is good on both. So I think that it was not something related to UT.
Great to hear, I will try it again myself when I have the opportunity!
I have a quick question, is there a reason why you start your app with XWayland rather than Wayland?
Starting the app like this allows to start it in Wayland mode. It seems to work fine. Normally it should possibly allow to improve performances although I've not tested that. I also allows to have the correct icon of your app in the left taskbar.
Thank you! 
export GDK_BACKEND=wayland
export DISABLE_WAYLAND=0
export OZONE_PLATFORM=wayland
export XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland
export WAYLAND_DISPLAY=${WAYLAND_DISPLAY:-wayland-0}
export GTK_USE_PORTAL=1
export DCONF_PROFILE=/nonexistent

By the way I should mention that Whatsnew and Signal UT, currently do not work anymore on 24.04-1.x daily, i.e the daily builds of the development version of UT.
I've posted a bug report here:
https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/core/lomiri/-/work_items/177
I hope we can find a fix before next UT release, even if it's not guarantied.
Nice did the quality improve since the first tests?
Read the tip and tricks section!
Next version of the app will focus on:
-Allowing to customize scaling/zoom factor of the app.
-Adjusting layout of the in-call panel ( harder cos I need to make calls while working to test it ).

By the way I just noticed that spell check can be removed in the app settings, in conversation settings.
@vishcompany said:
15 minutes agoI'd like to change the function of the return key from send to new line. I guess it's hidden somewhere in the menus.
No it's not a feature offered by Signal Desktop. There is no interesting feature in the top bar menu, everything is in the left menu. You can acheive what you want by expanding the editing area by typing on the small arrow.
Just a humble request: the textbox for entering the text has check spelling enabled but I guess that is for English and, since I use a different language, all the words have a red underline - could the spellcheck be disabled? Again, no hurry, thank you for everything! Your app allows me to use UT as a daily driver!
I can't reproduce for me spellcheck is in the language of my phone (French), can you check if all the language parameters of your phone are correct?
I'm not sure if is possible to disable spellcheck easily.
I've released version 0.1.5
Here are the improvements:
-Fix small bugs when using "Enter" to send message
-Fix Search contact in new conversation
-Fix possibility to input password with keyboard
-Adapt Lockscreen layout to mobile screen
-Make the app work again after Unlocking it
-Adapt layout of call panel allowing to select between voice call and video call
-Fix layout of microphone permission dialog to fit with small screens.
Don't hesitate to report if everything works for you!
Here will be the goals for next revision:
@projectmoon @messayisto
Ok small mistake sorry, I've published version 8.2.0-2 that should fix it.
Signal UT 8.2.0-1 is available! The improvements are:
-Bump to version 8.2.0
-Calibrate keyboard height, to real height measured on first start
Any feedback to confirm everything is working is welcome!
Your keyboard height problem should be solved on latest revision can you test?
By safety measure I will make a release based on V8.2.0 tomorow
Edit: But it seems Signal-Desktop was safe from 7.74.x so the latest 5 version of Signal UT were already safe in regard to these vulnerabilities (i.e all the versions that I build myself from source, not sure if the snap binaries were safe back then when I used the snap binaries at first), specifically the current version 7.86.0-1 seems safe.
Do you know Which verison of Signal-Desktop is vulnerable, and which one is patched?
I plan to release a new version of the app very soon, but If needed I can do just a version bumb tomorow to make sure the app is not vulnerable.
I cannot reproduce your issue with the microphone page. If I click on disallow forever the page does not appear anymore without doing any mic permission request. Do you have a different result? Can you explain more what you are doing? Thank's!
Ha ok I understand It's a layout issue, I will slightly squeeze the size of the elements, so the problem should be solved for you in next release.

I would not be the right person for this kind of video as I've never used iOS or Android, except for a brief moment when I was a student, when I owned an Android smartphone and it got stolen less than 3 months later. Destiny I guess! 
Hello everyone,
I figured I would make videos about Ubuntu Touch, to contribute spreading the word.
I'm thinking about making videos to present my applications, reviews/demonstration/tests of the system in general, and possibly videos where I explain why I'm using Ubuntu Touch, and how I got to it.
Here is my first video presenting the application Maps exporter:
English version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GR0eqz7wpyM
French version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOJkiSa28Ss
This is still quite experimental so if you have feedback on how to improve the videos for the next time feel free to do so!
