• The server signals new group mail over one connection instead of regularly polling every group.
• Linux and Windows gain voice calls, a system tray icon and message notifications.

Added

• Voice calling controls on Linux and Windows, including incoming calls while the app screen is locked after startup.
• A system tray icon on Linux and Windows. Closing the window keeps the app running; the tray menu can reopen it or quit.
• System message notifications on Linux and Windows when the window is not focused.

Changed

• Group mail now uses one server notification connection. The existing receiver continues to decrypt, save and acknowledge messages.

For administrators

Compatibility

The updated relay retains the existing delivery and acknowledgement paths for older clients. Application data formats and invitation rules are unchanged.

Network

The relay must be updated before these clients. Group mail notifications use authenticated HTTPS long polling; message delivery still uses the existing inbox.

Data and privacy

The new mail notification connection carries mailbox proofs and cell numbers, not message content. Existing encryption and acknowledgement processing remain in place.

Security

Packages retain the existing update signing key and Android installation certificate.

Installation

Linux version 0.3.26 first receives transitional version 0.3.27 through the normal update button, then 0.3.28. APT installs the required sound and tray libraries from configured repositories. Existing application data is retained.

Known issues

Repeating the same mailbox proof after a restart within the same second can return HTTP 401. Battery use, operating-system alert sound, microphone conversations and delivery to sleeping physical devices are not certified by the server checks. Windows has an update signature but no paid operating-system code-signing certificate.

2026-10-17 · Android, Linux, Windows

• A transitional release for Linux updates. The app uses APT to install updates together with their required system libraries and shows the reason if installation fails.

Changed

• Linux update installation uses APT to resolve system dependencies. The signed download and existing administrator authentication remain in place.
• Desktop installation errors show the system installer reason and leave the update button available.

For administrators

Compatibility

The Linux package has the same system dependencies as version 0.3.26. Android and Windows retain the 0.3.26 feature set.

Network

Desktop version 0.3.26 is directed to this transitional release before later full releases, including when users update later. Android continues to receive the latest release.

Data and privacy

Application data, installation identity and operating-system key storage are retained. No application data migration is introduced.

Security

Existing update signatures and the Android installation certificate are retained. APT uses configured system repositories; package scripts do not invoke APT.

Installation

Use the normal update button. Version 0.3.27 enables Linux dependency installation for the following full release. Administrative authentication uses the existing system mechanism.

Known issues

This transitional release does not include the new desktop calls, tray, message notifications or mail notification connection; these are in version 0.3.28.

• Fix joining a group by invitation when the clock on the phone or computer is fast or slow.
• The app now takes the time from the server.

Fixed

• Take the time for invitation key validity from the relay server's responses instead of the device clock, so joining a group no longer fails when device clocks differ.

For administrators

Compatibility

Retain existing system requirements, network contracts and stored-data formats for Android, Linux and Windows. Invitation codes, group rules and Channel +1 rules remain unchanged.

Network

No server program, server configuration or database changes are required. No new network requests are added.

Data and privacy

No new diagnostic sensors, collected data or monitoring tools are added. The server time is kept in memory only.

Security

Use the existing Android installation certificate and the existing signing key for all update packages.

Installation

Install 0.3.26 through the existing update card or the official download page; existing user data is preserved.

Known issues

Joining with mismatched clocks was checked on the local test bench with two app instances and a local relay; this does not certify every physical device. Windows retains its existing update signature without introducing a new operating-system code-signing certificate.

• Fix Android freezes after repeated unsuccessful group and Channel +1 invitations.
• Show the invitation's actual remaining lifetime, including time away from the app.

Fixed

• Keep Android invitation waiting separate from user actions so repeated unsuccessful attempts do not block the controls.
• Read the Android invitation countdown for the displayed code without restarting its lifetime when the interface is recreated or the app resumes.

For administrators

• Improved Android calls: starting a call, showing incoming calls on the locked screen, stopping the ringtone after answering, and calling again
• Call windows now share the same appearance; both chats have a green handset button

Fixed

• Improve Android call startup and incoming call presentation on the locked screen.
• Stop the incoming ringtone when answering and improve repeated calls and call cleanup.
• Use a consistent appearance for call windows and a green handset button in both chats.
• Connect privacy-safe diagnostic call tracing to the existing diagnostic service.
• Update server call code and the diagnostic observer without a database schema migration.

For administrators

Compatibility

Windows 10 21H2 or later (x86-64). Ubuntu 22.04 or later (x86-64); package dependencies unchanged. Android 8.0 or later (arm64-v8a, x86-64).

Network

Server call code and the diagnostic observer are updated. No database schema migration is required. The server package is separate from Android, Linux, and Windows user installers.

Data and privacy

Privacy-safe diagnostic call tracing uses ephemeral call correlations and fixed event categories. It does not include conversation audio, message content, contact names, or original call identifiers. Android message notification content remains obfuscated.

Security

Use the existing release signing keys and verify installer signatures and checksums before deployment. Android updates must retain the existing installation signing key.

Installation

This package prepares the common 0.3.21 update for Android, Linux, and Windows. Existing installations receive published updates through the normal update card.

• On the phone, call another person in the same group: the other phone rings with the usual ringtone, including on the lock screen
• On Android, new messages now reliably appear in the notification shade and clear after reading

Fixed

• Restore Android shade notices for ordinary and priority mail on phones that already have 0.3.19: the existing background receiver, start after boot, and separate channels.
• Issue the short-lived voice-path permission so a call in the group can connect.
• Store a mail packet that carries a delivery key.

For administrators

Compatibility

Windows 10 21H2 or later (x86-64). Ubuntu 22.04 or later (x86-64); package dependencies unchanged. Android 8.0 or later (arm64-v8a, x86-64).

Network

The mail server issues short-lived permissions for a voice path through the project's own TURN service. A mail packet that carries a delivery key is stored. Existing 0.3.18 and 0.3.19 clients keep sending and receiving mail. Voice envelopes are acknowledged and never appear as chat.

Data and privacy

Call signalling is sealed between the two phones. The mail server stores only short-lived delivery tickets, not audio, names, or group roster. Android notification title and body remain obfuscated.

Security

Updates are signed with the same Ed25519 (minisign) key D5ABFA97CEDEBABF; a version older than the installed one is never installed. The Android package is signed with the same installation key as 0.3.15–0.3.19.

Installation

Existing 0.3.19 installations receive this version through the card on the main screen. Fresh install — Windows, silent: EMAPKA_0.3.20_x64-setup.exe /S. Linux: sudo apt install ./EMAPKA_0.3.20_amd64.deb. Android: install EMAPKA_0.3.20.apk over 0.3.19.

Known issues

An incoming call reaches the phone only while the app process is alive; there is no push wake from a killed process. Two-phone live calls on user devices were not measured in this release. Installers are not signed with a paid Windows code-signing certificate.

• On Android, new messages now reliably appear in the notification shade and clear after reading
• On all platforms, temporary server and network failures retry gradually without flooding the server

Fixed

• Drive Android notifications from successfully deduplicated and durably stored incoming messages instead of changes in the total unread count; reading or deleting another message no longer hides a new arrival, and old data restored after restart is not announced as new.
• Stop Android UI network loops when the activity is hidden and use the existing single background receiver; remove the separate polling loop and minute wake alarm.
• Serialize auth-token acquisition and apply capped exponential backoff with jitter to 429, 5xx and transport failures, honor Retry-After, and hold terminal rejections instead of retrying indefinitely.

• Open the app on the screen where it was closed, with the menu already open, once there is at least one group, membership or Channel +1. Back leads where it led before the app was closed. A first start without groups still opens the main screen with the menu closed.

Changed

• Show a white E on a black square as the Android app icon, matching the computer.

For administrators

Compatibility

Windows 10 21H2 or later (x86-64). Ubuntu 22.04 or later (x86-64); package dependencies unchanged since 0.3.2. Android 8.0 or later (arm64-v8a, x86-64).

Network

No change.

Data and privacy

Two more items are kept in the app's encrypted local data on the device: the screen protection choice and the last open screen. Nothing new leaves the device.

Security

Updates are signed with the same Ed25519 (minisign) key D5ABFA97CEDEBABF; a version older than the installed one is never installed. The Android package is signed with the same installation key as 0.3.15. Screen protection is on unless the person turns it off; Linux desktops do not support blocking screenshots, so there the checkbox has no system effect.

Installation

Existing desktop installations from 0.3.13 and Android 0.3.15 receive this version through the card on the main screen. Fresh install — Windows, silent: EMAPKA_0.3.16_x64-setup.exe /S. Linux: sudo apt install ./EMAPKA_0.3.16_amd64.deb. Android: install EMAPKA_0.3.16.apk over 0.3.15.

Known issues

Installers are not signed with a paid code-signing certificate, so Windows warns on first manual installation.

• See a new version right after you open the app, not a day later

Fixed

• Check for a new version at every app start, not only once a day: a version released during the day was previously shown only on the next day, and restarting the app or the computer did not help.

For administrators

Compatibility

Windows 10 21H2 or later (x86-64). Ubuntu 22.04 or later (x86-64); package dependencies unchanged since 0.3.2.

Network

One extra HTTPS GET to emapka.app/update/<language>.json per app start (about 1.5 KB). The daily check with a random offset stays for an app that is already open. Everything else unchanged.

Data and privacy

No change. The check carries only the app language and the installed version number.

Security

Updates are signed with the same Ed25519 (minisign) key D5ABFA97CEDEBABF; a version older than the installed one is never installed.

• Update the app from the card on the main screen — the first update that arrives by itself
• Keep working calmly when the connection drops: the app waits instead of hammering the server

Changed

• Deliver this version through the update card: the first release people receive without visiting the website.

Fixed

• Wait after losing the connection instead of asking the server for mail every fifth of a second.

For administrators

Compatibility

Windows 10 21H2 or later (x86-64). Ubuntu 22.04 or later (x86-64); package dependencies unchanged since 0.3.2.

Network

Unchanged since 0.3.13: a daily HTTPS GET to emapka.app/update/<language>.json, downloads from emapka.app/releases/<version>/, messages through relay.emapka.app, diagnostic logs to emapka.app/report only with consent. New: after a lost connection the app waits with a growing pause (1 s doubling to 60 s) before asking for mail again.

No change. The update check carries only the app language and the installed version number.
