This major update adds new features mostly related to customization and direct messages, as well as a wide variety of UI and quality-of-life improvements and bug fixes.

  • Updated theme/appearance options
    • Dark theme renamed to Black
    • New dark theme added - similar to official client
    • Added customizable font size for message author/content
    • Added the ability to switch back to the old UI
  • Experimental gateway/socket support (live message updates)
    • The gateway proxy server (ssl://uwmpr.online:8081) uses TLS 1.0 encryption, meaning it is only compatible with newer devices (e.g. emulators like J2ME Loader) and devices which have the required certificates installed (Let's Encrypt). We are working on a better solution to this.
  • Improved direct messages
    • Better DM selection screen with a list of most recent DMs
    • Added support for group DMs
  • Improved message timestamps
    • Added 12 hour time option
    • Fixed broken timestamps on Symbian UIQ2
    • Date is now shown instead of time for messages older than a day
  • Miscellaneous UI improvements
    • New main menu
    • New message input screen
  • Lite HTTP proxy (reduces data transfers to speed up loading)
    • If you're upgrading from a previous release, change the API URL to http://dscjava.uwmpr.online.
    • Also compatible with older versions
  • Better device compatibility
    • CLDC 1.0 support (older MIDP 2.0 devices such as Series 60 2nd Edition)
    • Wi-Fi support on BlackBerry devices
    • Threaded HTTP requests (fixes freezing on certain devices)
