• Data Saver Mode - enable to always compress images before sending, and add more compression to outgoing videos
  • ⚙️ → Preferences → Media → Data Saving Mode
• Location Preview Rendering
  • Previously, locations would just display as raw coordinates - now they appear as pins on a map

Fixes & Optimizations 🔨

• We’ve changed our video compression algorithm to be much faster (4x!)
• Optimized overall performance to be much faster for people with over 2,000 chats, and to be more performant on older devices
• Mentions now work correctly when added to the middle of a message, not just the end
• Refined decryption retry logic to be more consistent when receiving undecryptable messages
• Optimized message sends to be faster
• Multiple messages sent within a short period of time will now be sent in correct order
• Fixed a memory leak that would cause Beeper’s performance to be sluggish and degrade the longer it was open
• Fixed a case where the order of the media in the photo gallery could be mixed up
• Corrected invisible text in Android 10 long press menus
• Correctly forward GIFs in their original format, instead of as videos
