中文

🐛 修复

  • 👥 喵传支持多人同时下载:改为先到先服务的排队,每个接收方都能拿到文件,不会再被后来者顶掉而一直「排队中」(#147)
  • 📊 每个接收方单独显示进度和速度,换人时进度不再从满格跳回 0,速度不再混在一起算 (#147)
  • 🔒 修复给新接收方发排队通知时可能把文件数据发错对象的问题 (#147)

✨ 改进

  • 🗂️ 默认只显示一个接收方,其余收在「展开其余 N 个」里,可随时收起 (#147)

未签名构建;macOS Gatekeeper / Windows SmartScreen 警告属正常。

English

🐛 Fixes

  • 👥 喵传 now serves multiple downloaders: a first-come, first-served queue makes sure every receiver gets the file instead of being bumped and stuck on "Queued" (#147)
  • 📊 Each receiver has its own progress and speed; progress no longer jumps from full back to 0 when switching receivers, and speeds are no longer mixed together (#147)
  • 🔒 Fixed a case where a queue notice to a new receiver could interleave with file data sent to someone else (#147)

✨ Improvements

  • 🗂️ Only one receiver is shown by default; the rest are under "Show N more" and can be collapsed again (#147)

未签名构建;macOS Gatekeeper / Windows SmartScreen 警告属正常。

English

✨ New

  • 🐧 Linux desktop build: tray, autostart, more terminals for Open in Terminal, shipped as .tar.gz and .deb; needs glibc 2.39+ (Ubuntu 24.04, Debian 13, Fedora 40) (#134)
  • 📦 Linux amd64 also ships a -full.tar.gz with a bundled WebKitGTK 2.54.1 built with WebRTC, so voice, video, and screen share work (#134)
  • 📞 Incoming voice and video calls ring and wait for you to answer or decline instead of opening the mic right away; unanswered calls stop after 60 seconds (#126, #141)
  • 🎛️ Call status sits inline in the call panel: peer, state and duration, mute, and a red hang-up button (#131)
  • 🧾 WeChat-style call records appear in the chat when a call ends: completed (with duration), declined, cancelled, missed, or failed (#141)
  • 🪟 Open a peer's shared screen in its own OS window at native resolution (#125, #135)
  • 🆕 A "New messages" divider marks the first unread message when you open a room (#143)

  • 🖥️ The window opens at a wider 1152×720 by default and fits a 1366×768 screen (#132)

🛠️ Fixes

  • 🔑 With a fixed key, the port serve address stays the same after a reboot (#137)
  • 🔁 A port serve can be started again after you stop it (#138)
  • ☎️ Voice, video, and screen share stay connected, with audio playing, when you leave the chat page (#127, #131)
  • 🎙️ On Windows, mic/camera errors point at the real system switches (the app is listed as Microsoft Edge WebView2); with no device attached the app says "No microphone or camera found" (#140, #141)
  • 📐 The new-room page scrolls in the 1152×720 window, so the Connect button is no longer cut off (#142)
  • 💻 SSH "Open in Terminal" no longer crashes the app on Windows (#130)
  • ⏳ The burn-after-reading countdown sits outside the bubble with a lighter style (#122)

✨ 新功能

  • 📞 通话结束后,聊天里会出现类似微信的通话记录:已接通(带时长)、已拒绝、已取消、未接听、连接失败 (#141)
  • ⏰ 来电响铃 60 秒无人接听会自动结束,记为未接来电 (#141)

🛠️ 修复

  • 🎙️ Windows 上麦克风 / 摄像头打不开时,提示改为指向真正的开关:设置 → 隐私和安全性 → 麦克风 / 摄像头,打开访问权限和「让桌面应用访问你的麦克风 / 相机」,列表里显示的是 Microsoft Edge WebView2(不是 Tailcat Box),也提示设备可能被其他程序占用 (#140)
  • 🔌 没有麦克风或摄像头时,直接提示「未检测到麦克风或摄像头」,不再误报权限问题 (#141)
  • 🧹 去掉通话面板里「本地预览 / 远端媒体」的文字标注,界面更干净 (#141)
  • 🧪 修复喵传恢复测试偶发失败 (#139)

  • 📞 WeChat-style call records appear in the chat when a call ends: completed (with duration), declined, cancelled, missed, or failed (#141)
  • ⏰ An unanswered incoming call stops ringing after 60 seconds and is recorded as missed (#141)

🛠️ Fixes

  • 🎙️ On Windows, mic/camera errors now point at the real switches: Settings → Privacy & security → Microphone / Camera, the access switch and "Let desktop apps access your microphone / camera", and the entry named Microsoft Edge WebView2 (not Tailcat Box); they also mention that another app may be using the device (#140)
  • 🔌 With no mic or camera attached, the app says "No microphone or camera found" instead of showing a permissions hint (#141)
  • 🧹 The "Local preview / Remote media" captions are gone from the call panel (#141)
  • 🧪 Fixed a flaky miao restore test (#139)

中文

🛠️ 修复

  • 🔁 端口映射停止后可以再次启动:之前停止后再点「启动」会被当成仍在运行而没有反应,现在停止时会清掉旧的关联,临时密钥和固定密钥都能正常重新启动 (#138)

📦 安装包和 v1.2.7-beta.2 一样:Windows、macOS、Linux(.tar.gz / .deb,amd64 另有内置 WebRTC 的 -full.tar.gz 完整包)。

未签名构建;macOS Gatekeeper / Windows SmartScreen 警告属正常。

English

🛠️ Fixes

  • 🔁 A port serve can be started again after you stop it: before, Start after Stop did nothing because the mapping still looked like it was running. Stop now clears the stale link, and restarting works with both ephemeral and fixed keys (#138)

📦 Same packages as v1.2.7-beta.2: Windows, macOS, and Linux (.tar.gz / .deb, plus the amd64 -full.tar.gz with bundled WebRTC).

  • 📦 Linux amd64 另有 -full.tar.gz 完整包,内置带 WebRTC 的 WebKitGTK 2.54.1,可以语音、视频通话和共享屏幕;普通包使用系统 WebKitGTK,没有 WebRTC 时通话会给出明确提示 (#134)
  • 🪟 对方共享的屏幕可以点右上角图标,在独立的系统窗口里打开,按原始分辨率显示(Windows 和 macOS)(#135)
  • 📞 通话状态直接显示在通话面板里:对方、状态和时长、静音、红色挂断按钮(来电时显示接听 / 拒绝),去掉了悬浮卡片;共享屏幕时状态栏叠在画面底部 (#131)
  • 🧪 设置里新增「Beta 版本」开关,默认关闭;打开后检查更新会包含预发布版本 (#136)

  • 📦 Linux amd64 also ships a -full.tar.gz package with a bundled WebKitGTK 2.54.1 built with WebRTC, so voice, video, and screen share work; the regular package uses the system WebKitGTK and shows a clear message when WebRTC is missing (#134)
  • 🪟 Open a peer's shared screen in its own OS window at native resolution from the corner icon (Windows and macOS) (#135)
  • 📞 Call status now sits inline in the call panel: peer, state and duration, mute, and a red hang-up button (answer / decline while ringing); the floating card is gone, and during screen share the bar overlays the bottom of the stream (#131)
  • 🧪 New "Beta updates" switch in Settings, off by default; when on, update checks include pre-releases (#136)
  • 🖥️ The window opens at a wider 1152×720 by default and fits a 1366×768 screen (#132)

🛠️ Fixes

  • 🔑 With a fixed key, the port serve address stays the same after a reboot: the region in use is saved in the key file, so a slow network at boot no longer switches regions (#137)
  • ☎️ Call buttons no longer expand the room details when no peer is set; the call panel shows a hint instead (#135)

  • 🔴 The tray cat shows a red dot when you have unread messages (#128)
