  • This update fixes a bug where viewing a missed call on one device wouldn't automatically clear the indicator for that missed call on your other devices, which was a missed opportunity for your missed call list to better coexist.

Thanks for sharing the update. It's great to see Signal continuously improving its features and addressing bugs for a smoother user experience. The focus on privacy is indeed commendable.

  • Take a trip down memory lane with the new and improved "All Media" view. Now when you click on a chat header and select "See all" in the shared media section, older photos and videos will automatically appear as you scroll instead of being limited to the most recent entries.

  • Sometimes leaving something behind is the best way to discover that you want to find it again, so we fixed a bug that made it difficult to search for groups that you're no longer a part of anymore but that still remain in your conversation list (and quite possibly in your heart).

  • Now you can remove quoted replies from edited messages. It's perfect for those moments when you realize that your response was so good that it doesn't actually need to stand on another message's shoulders, or when you accidentally reply to the wrong message with "I love you too."

  • We fixed a bug that prevented stickers from working correctly in the media editor, and now the picker no longer gets stuck when you're trying to stick a sticker on a picture.
  • This update also includes support for the new screen sharing interface in macOS Sequoia.

  • Now you can quickly download every photo in an album when you receive a message with multiple attachments. But if you were a gallery curator with impeccable taste in another life, you can still save them individually too. Thanks, @major-mayer!

  • Thanks to some small optimizations, this update slightly reduces the size of the app by approximately 4 megabytes. That's enough room for you to send the equivalent of about 4 books’ worth of text messages (or 2-3 animated GIFs) without taking up any extra space.
  • If Wayland is your compositing window manager (and not just the name of a blacksmith you vaguely remember from Beowulf) you'll be happy to hear that we also fixed a bug with the screen sharing button on Linux.

  • This update introduces support for new processors on Windows like the Snapdragon X Elite, so you don't need to twist your ARM into emulating x86 anymore.
  • We also fixed a bug that broke the dark theme in Signal when your operating system settings were configured to use a light theme. Signal Desktop can now properly handle your thematically split personality.

  • The new filter icon next to the search box makes it easy to quickly find unread chats, but feel free to take your time deciding whether or not to leave them on read after seeing what they had to say.

  • This update fixes a bug on macOS Sonoma that prevented screen sharing from working correctly if permission to share the screen had previously been denied — so you no longer need to share your screen with an error message.
  • Filter by Unread now highlights the selected chat, and the list of unread chats will automatically update as new messages arrive or when you catch up in one chat and click on another.
