8.32.0Latest
- The unread filter is now also supported in message folders and the search interface, so you can easily see what you've been missing.
- Improved upload reliability under poor network conditions. Thanks, @3mmmbulus!
- The "(N)" shortcut correctly points to the thumbs down emoji. Thumbs up to @lnicola for the bugfix.
8.31.0
- Handful of bug fixes to keep your app running smoothly. More exciting changes on the horizon!
8.30.0
- Thanks to a few performance improvements, your CPU will be slightly happier during video calls (even if you're not smiling).
- We also added a convenient shortcut to open your system settings on Windows if you try to join a video call and Signal doesn't have permission to access the camera. Now it's easier to see what you need to do so that people can see you.
8.29.0
- Additional small tweaks, bug fixes, and performance enhancements. Thanks for using Signal!

Small tweaks, bug fixes, and performance enhancements. Thanks for using Signal!
8.27.0
- This update introduces more granular settings to give you significantly more control over your Signal notifications. Now you can choose what appears on the app badge, adjust notification preferences for muted threads, and more! We also added a convenient button to restore the default notification settings if you ever make so many changes that you don't even know how to get ahold of yourself anymore.
8.26.0
- Finding yourself can be a lifelong process, but now you'll appear as "You" in the group member search to make it a little easier.
8.25.0
- We added two new zoom levels in the appearance settings, so even with very little effort you can still give your messages 110% (or 90%).
8.24.1
- We made it easier to search for group members on the group settings page, so you can quickly figure out if your Mom already added your second cousin to the third-annual extended family reunion BBQ group.

8.23.0
- Tweaks, bug fixes, and performance enhancements. Keep on texting, calling, and video chatting as usual.

8.20.0
- Introducing disappearing call events: Missed, outgoing, and received calls that occur after you install this update will now automatically disappear in any chat where disappearing messages are enabled.
- Now you can reorder installed sticker packs so your new favorites don’t get stuck in the back of the line.
8.19.0
- Group admins can now bring chats to their natural conclusion with the new "End Group" option in group settings. Ending a group prevents group members from sending messages or starting calls, and also disables invites. Now you can make sure everyone stays on the right thread by ending last year's sewing meetup group before stitching a new one together.
8.18.0
- Polls can now be created in individual chats too. Present a curated list of choices to your indecisive friend, or recapture the magic of passing a note to your crush by creating a “Do you like me? Y/N/Maybe” poll.
8.17.0
- Group admins can now delete recently sent messages in a group chat. If someone accidentally posts a spoiler in your Book Club group and then walks away from their phone, a group admin can delete it to keep the plot twist intact. You can easily see when a message was deleted and who removed it, just like the existing "Delete for Everyone" feature.
- We also increased the maximum number of pinned chats from 4 to 10, so you can show 6 more people how much you love what they have to say.
8.16.0
- We fixed a bug in the sticker creator that displayed the interface in the wrong language. Even though stickers are pictures (and therefore worth a thousand words) it's still important to get the words right too.
8.15.0
- "This extra E is vexing me," said the cries and pleas of the people displeased that their favorite file extension was four letters instead of three. We're happy to appease (the change was a breeze) and now you will see that the default filename when saving a JPEG will end as it should in dot jpg.
- If you want to embrace your inner goth, we also added support for the dark icon style in macOS.
8.14.0
- Small tweaks, bug fixes, and performance enhancements. Thanks for using Signal!

8.13.0
- The new raised-hand indicators are now also displayed in the list of raised hands during group calls. It's a second-hand place to figure out who you should hand it over to when you're done speaking.
8.12.0
- On the one hand, you can click on the raise hand icon during group calls. But on the other hand, now you can use a new keyboard shortcut too (Shift-H).
