ZapTide 0.2.0 brings a better voice recorder, quicker ways to open chats, and a simpler attachment menu. You can now pick photos and videos from Gallery, send documents through Files, find people to mention in a group, and see more about a contact.

New

  • Links in messages are clickable. Web addresses open in your browser. Phone numbers and WhatsApp links take you to a chat in ZapTide. By @leandromqrs.
  • Voice notes show a live waveform and timer while you record, with clear send and cancel buttons. By @leandromqrs.
  • Gallery and Files have separate choices in the attachment menu. Pick photos and videos as media, or send any file as a document. Filenames appear before you send. By @leandromqrs.
  • Polls can have up to 12 answers and allow people to select more than one. Press Enter to create one. By @leandromqrs.
  • Group mentions are searchable. Find a member by name or number; their photos load without holding up the dialog in large groups. By @leandromqrs.
  • Contact info has more detail: saved name, About, last seen, chat settings, and groups you share, including group photos when available. By @leandromqrs.

Fixed

  • A failed send no longer loses your draft. ZapTide puts the unsent message back before any text you typed in the meantime. By @leandromqrs.
  • Phone and web links end where they should. Nearby numbers and dates are left alone, and URLs with parentheses stay intact. By @leandromqrs.
  • Chat settings display correctly when a chat changes or is muted indefinitely. Sending a file as a document in one chat no longer changes how that file is sent in another. By @leandromqrs.
  • Voice recording controls have screen-reader labels for the recording indicator and send button. By @leandromqrs.

ZapTide is an unofficial WhatsApp client. Meta may restrict or ban accounts that use third-party clients. Use it at your own risk.
