ZapTide 0.4.0 groups photos sent together into albums, lets you stage attachments above the message box, and shows WhatsApp text formatting and business messages with web links. Chats reconnect after your computer wakes from sleep, and the chat filters and file-drop area have a clearer layout.

New
- Photos sent together appear in one album. Open its photos in the viewer with buttons or arrow keys. Albums with more than four photos show a
+Ncount and one download button for missing photos. By @leandromqrs. - Stage attachments above the message box. See each file, remove one or clear them all, and write a caption in the regular composer. You can drop files anywhere in the conversation; a card shows where they will go. By @leandromqrs.
- Read WhatsApp text formatting. Bold, italic, strikethrough, code, quotes and lists appear in messages, templates, buttons and lists. By @leandromqrs.
- Read business messages with website buttons. Templates that previously appeared as unsupported now show their text, footer and web links, including messages already in your archive. By @leandromqrs.
- See a reply before sending it. The composer shows who and what you are replying to. Chat filters now have labeled groups and icons. By @leandromqrs.
Fixed
- Chats reconnect after suspend. ZapTide resumes the connection when the computer wakes and shows a spinner while messages update. By @leandromqrs.
- Search no longer loses characters while you type. Sidebar updates cannot replace a fast-typed query with an older one. By @leandromqrs.
- Recently used stickers are yours. The picker no longer treats received stickers as your own recent stickers. By @leandromqrs.
- New messages settle into long conversations more smoothly. Loading pages avoids repeated scans, and arriving rows fade in while respecting reduced motion. By @leandromqrs.
