The settings list now has the account card on top, title-case group
labels and 56 dp rows that show each pane's current value. About and
"About & Data" were one placeholder page with a letter logo, a fixed
name and a store link that pointed at GitHub releases.
- About: the real logo, the app name from app.config.js, the update
state, a source link that a build can set with SOURCE_CODE_URL, and
rows for the server, update checks (Android), open-source licences,
privacy and a prefilled GitHub issue. iPhone updates link TestFlight.
- Storage & backup: usage card, offline mail, settings export/import
and reset, and a Troubleshooting page for refresh and debug logging.
- Sender favicons moved to Appearance, like the webmail.
- The S/MIME and Plugins stub pages are gone; both are webmail plugins.
The licence list is generated by `scripts/generate-licences.mjs`.
The app was locked to portrait in app.config.js and the hand-kept
AndroidManifest.xml. Android 16 ignores that lock on screens 600 dp and
wider, so tablets and foldables rotated into layouts that were never
tested. This removes the lock in both places, keeps React state across
rotation and split-screen resizes (`smallestScreenSize` joins
`configChanges`), and fixes what broke in landscape:
- the thread pager sizes its pages from its own width and snaps back to
the open message after a rotation instead of showing half a neighbour
- compose and the thread view share one keyboard tracker; a rotation
with the keyboard open closes it, since Android sends no new keyboard
frame and the old portrait one blanked the whole landscape composer
- in a short window with the keyboard up the composer hides the format
bar and tightens its header so a few lines of text stay visible
- inputs with suggestions or context around them opt out of Android's
full-screen landscape keyboard
- month views fit whole rows to the real height, keep the month across a
remount, and the month dropdown re-measures and caps its height
- the week grid's header follows the remounted list after a rotation
- the event sheet's actions stay on screen in landscape
- every RN Modal allows all orientations, or iOS forces portrait
In the day, 3 days and week grids an event could only be started with a
long press, which few people find. Tapping an empty slot now marks it
with a "New event" block, and tapping that block opens the editor at
that hour; a second tap elsewhere moves the block. Long press still
opens the editor straight away. Tapping a day's header in the week or
3 days grid opens that day.
The editor also started events from a slot half an hour late, because
it rounded a time already on the hour up to the next half hour.
The agenda showed each day as a grey header bar above its events. It now
reads like a schedule: the weekday and date sit in a column on the left
of the day's first event (today in a filled circle), a heading marks
where each month starts and a quiet line names each week's range. An
empty today says "Nothing planned. Tap to create." and tapping it opens
a new event. In the drawer the view is now called Schedule.
Events that fill a whole day are listed as all day instead of
"00:00 – 00:00".
The month view used to be a small grid of dots with the selected day's
events listed underneath, so you only ever saw one day's events at a
time. It now fills the screen: each day is a cell with its events as
solid bars in the calendar colour and "+N" for the ones that don't fit.
Tapping a day opens it in the day view, and long-pressing still creates
an event there. Events that fill the whole day no longer show 00:00.
The dotted month stays for the month that drops down under the title.
The calendar header was crowded: four icon toggles, a separate row of
arrows and a Today button, and a small create button squeezed in next
to them. Navigation now follows Google Calendar's layout while keeping
the app's own look:
- the header shows the month; tapping it drops down a month you can
swipe through and pick a day from
- a calendar icon with today's date jumps to today
- Schedule, Day, 3 days, Week and Month are listed at the top of the
drawer, styled like the mail drawer's folders, with Refresh below
- a round create button sits in the corner like the mail compose
button; with tasks on it offers Event or Task
- a new 3 days view shows three columns of the time grid
The arrows stay in the header when free scrolling is off, since the
views can't be swiped then.
Since releases ship an `.apk.sha256` file, every in-app update checks
the downloaded APK against it. The check read the 40 MB file in base64
chunks and hashed it in JS, which took longer than the download, and it
reset the progress bar to 0 under the "Downloading" label, so the update
looked like it downloaded twice, the second time slowly.
The file is now read and hashed natively through expo-crypto (the JS
hasher remains as a fallback), and the bar stays full under a
"Verifying…" label while the check runs.
The "Sync with address book" toggle under Content & Senders was off until
the user turned it on, so senders trusted on the phone stayed in the
local allow-list and never reached the "Trusted Senders" address book the
other devices read. A setting the user never chose now counts as on;
only an explicit opt-out, or a server without contacts, turns it off.
Brings feat/device-sync into main: on Android, each account's address
books and calendars can sync both ways with the phone's Contacts and
Calendar apps (Settings -> Contacts / Calendar -> Sync to this
device), through a "Bulwark" Android account with a contacts and a
calendar sync adapter.
- native side: the account, both sync adapters, provider access scoped
to the account, push routing to the syncs, sync problem notices
- the sync engine in `src/device-sync`, run as a headless task
- the settings sections, sign-out and removal handling, translations
- design, limitations and verification in `docs/device-sync.md`
The account row in the sync settings counts the synced address books
or calendars from its own copy of the list, loaded when the row
appears. The chooser loads a fresh list when it opens, so a calendar
created meanwhile showed there but not in the count ("4 of 5 sync"
stayed after a sixth appeared, and turning it on or off changed
nothing) until the settings page was opened again.
Every fresh list now reaches every view of that account's collections,
so the count follows the chooser.
