Whatsit v4.0.0 - Arch Linux Package

Improvements in v 4.0.0

MAJOR REGRESSION

• Regression: ALL (Including Dark Mode) JS injection is removed.

• Titlebar menu option and Config file key value are also removed as well.

• The app is more secure now (Not that it wasn't before...), offering a more vanilla experience.

• Dark Mode can be directly enabled from whatsapp settings, and that setting is persistent anyway.

• If any problem occurs, use Reload Config and Cache option. If problem persists, start an issue.

• If you want to examine the changes, go through the corresponding commit. In particular, check webenginehelper.cpp for changes regarding JS.

Qt Licensing

• Added 3rd party licenses. check the LICENSES folder or README.

Icons

• Added icons for titlebar menu buttons.

Notes

• Go to Whatsapp Settings -> Chats - > Theme and choose Dark.

• If enabling the menu option is still breaking the view of the webpage, restart the app completely.

• Notifications will only show when the app is minimized, hidden, or out of view (in a different virtual desktop).

Future updates

• Mute notification sounds (when Notifications toggle is disabled)- titlebar menu option.
• Delete debug file on app/profile change.
