Anonomi Messenger Files

Anonomi Messenger 1.5.0

Account backup and restore. You can now export your whole account — identity, contacts and messages — to an encrypted file, protected by a 30-digit recovery code shown once and never stored on the device. Restore it on a new phone during setup. Keep the file and the code apart: anyone who has both has the account. The app never deletes a backup file for you, so move it off the phone yourself.

Locations and payment requests are real messages now. Both were previously sent as marked-up text. They are now their own message types, negotiated per contact, with a text fallback for contacts on older versions.

Monero addresses can be read without the QR code, so a request still works when the code cannot be drawn.

Also in this release

• Forums advertise image and voice message support
• Blog like counts no longer drift, and two posts sharing an author and timestamp are told apart
• Over-long comments are reported rather than silently dropped
• Updated onion addresses
• Anonomi Postbox 1.0.6
• Security and reliability improvements
• Translated into all 50 supported languages
