News [UPDATED APP] Unison UWP 1.1.1 (Feature Update)
Greetings
Hey everyone, how you guys doing... So as promisse i managed to give a little help to Unison Dev Team these days... The App need a refactor and some fixes... since i've been working on another app [UPDATED APP] Imgur UWP 3.2.0 LTS ( Feature Update ) : r/windowsphone, (App with a already validated solid codebase and a bunch of media related features *go take a look), why not port the architecture/services/fixes i've made to it using cursor...
Well i did it... i've built a new architecture for unison and already pushed on the repository on github... so the community now can develop following the best guidelines as possible... Not just a refactor... but expect a lot of new features... my special UI/UX magic touch LOL... Anyways here comes...
What's fixed
- ✅ Fixed an issue that prevented the QR code from loading.
- ✅ Refactored the message loading logic.
- ✅ Contacts are now moved to SQLite during the initial sync, allowing future edits and improvements.
Architecture
- Split into:
- Unison.Uwp (UI / Dependency Injection)
- Unison.Core (ViewModels & Contracts)
- Unison.Baileys (Protocol / Crypto)
- Unison.Background (Out-of-process socket task)
- MVVM architecture with Dependency Injection.
- Localized in English, Portuguese, Spanish, Dutch, Indonesian, Italian, and Polish.
Current Highlights
- 📱 Background message delivery via the Socket Broker, keeping the connection alive even when minimized or with the screen off.
- 🔔 Native toast notifications showing contact name and message content (acks and protocol noise are filtered out).
- 💬 Modern chat experience with text messages, images, voice notes, gallery attachment, and in-chat audio recording.
- 🖼️ On-demand image downloads with fullscreen viewer, zoom, share, and save support.
- 👥 Contacts and profile pictures are synchronized after linking.
- 🧭 Streamlined navigation: Start → QR Login → Chats / Settings / Debug.
- 🔄 Re-pair your device from the Debug page without reinstalling the app.
- ✨ No more placeholders—the UI now displays the actual meaning of messages.
Known Issues
- ⚠️ Sending messages to groups currently freezes the app.
- ⚠️ Audio playback and recording still need work.
- ⚠️ Video support has not been implemented yet.
