Hello all!

Also in v5.5:

simpler UX to connect - you can paste SimpleX links to search bar.
improved message delivery, with reduced battery usage.
fully encrypted files and media in the app storage.
reveal secrets in messages by tapping.
many other fixes and improvements.

We also added Hungarian (Android and desktop apps) and Turkish UIs thanks to our users.

One more news: SimpleX Chat is accepted into Linode Rise startup program, providing free infrastructure in the first year and discounts in subsequent years. All servers for SimpleX Chat can be self-hosted (except iOS push notifications).
