Stable release: profiles with GIF status, reliable chats, restored MESH PLUS badge, refreshed group UI, and a major pass on group voice channels (same WebRTC path as working 1:1 calls).

Fixed

  • Profiles — Open peer profiles with a status GIF without hangs; GIF loads in the background.
  • Chats — Open conversations reliably from the peer list, chat hub, and context menu.
  • Calls — TCP signalling reuses existing sockets (from 1.0.2), reducing connection overhead.
  • Group voice — Host no longer self-monitors via WebAudio mixer; client stops tearing down ICE while connecting; SDP offer/answer races fixed; handshake accepts peers on a different route (VPN/Tailscale) and updates discovery IP.
  • Windows auto-update — Unsigned GitHub installers work after a one-time manual install from a broken 1.0.2 build (verifyUpdateCodeSignature = false).

Changed

  • MESH PLUS — Platinum badge with animated gradient label; unofficial tier uses a red gradient for visual distinction.
  • Settings → MESH+ — Pixel hero strip added above the benefits carousel for clearer tier presentation.
  • Groups — Community layout with dedicated chat/voice sections, channel labels (General / Voice), square voice tiles, and LAN group avatar sync.

Install note (Windows)

If you are on 1.0.0 or a broken 1.0.2 updater, install BLIP-Setup-1.0.3.exe once from Assets. Later updates can use in-app update via Settings → Updates.
