Considerations for XMPP users

XEP-Check

  • I have checked that at least XEP-198, XEP-0280, XEP-0352, XEP-0357, XEP-0313 and XEP-0163 are activated on my server and shown as 'green' under Settings --> Account--> (i) in advanced settings

Notifications-Menu

  • I have checked that all checkmarks are present under Settings --> Notifications

@pylapp when you run into UI bugs like this one, a workaround is closing the app (from the recent apps switcher) and reopening it.

I never saw that myself, not sure how to reproduce this.

More details below:

Versions

  • device: iPhone 14 Pro
  • OS version: iOS 17.5.1
  • Monal version: Stable 6.4.0 (911)

Content of my app

  • 7 conversations including:
  • 6 groups
  • 1 direct messages thread

Workaround

Just pull a bit the list of groups, the button appears. It disappears when I enter a group at least.

Note

Seems not a big issue, I'll try to look in the code base, find a fix and bring it through a PR

Seems to be an iOS 17 bug, on iOS 16 this never happens, but on my new iOS 17 device I observed that behavior, too.
