update in app store review that will fix performance issues for very large crowds and a bunch of other things.
What's New in bitchat 1.8.0:
- Busy location channels are fast again. The people list opens instantly even with hundreds of people nearby, and the chat no longer jumps back while you scroll through a fast conversation.
- Your drafts are kept when you switch between mesh, location channels and private chats.
- Join a nearby location channel with one tap, and share channel invites from the share sheet.
- Give someone a local alias on their fingerprint screen. Verified contacts now show a seal in private chats.
- A recent chats section keeps every private conversation within reach.
- A banner tells you when Bluetooth is off or Tor is stalled.
- Panic wipe now asks for confirmation and tells you when it's done.
- On Mac, scan verification QR codes with the camera. @-mention suggestions now work from the keyboard.
- Messages from someone who shares your name are no longer treated as your own.
- Security hardening and fixes throughout, and the app is now fully localized in all 30 supported languages.

🇫🇷 Hier bitchat était n°1 des réseaux sociaux sur l'App Store en France...
Aujourd'hui c'est n°1 de TOUTES les applis gratuites !!
Là ce n'est plus une niche des milliers de Français installent une messagerie qui marche sans internet, sans numéro et sans serveur, la semaine per les réseaux sociaux 😉

@jack This was the off internet chat app which is very vital in time of crisis. It is bluetooth mesh oriented.

@jack What about taking care of your square customers by lowering your merchant fee in Australia instead of promoting riot in Europe via bitchat.
