[1.0.0] - 2026-06-10

First release of bluewhale, a fork of bitchat.

Changed

  • Rebrand from bitchat to bluewhale: package com.bluewhale.android,
    applicationId com.bluewhale.droid, app name, themes, deep-link scheme, and
    localized strings (#5). Default accent color is Light Blue.

Added

  • SMS webhook gateway: turn the device into a gateway that forwards incoming SMS
    to a configured HTTPS webhook, with optional Nostr directory publishing and
    discovery (#2).
  • Selectable text/accent color (Green, Yellow, Pink, Light Blue, Orange) with
    distinct light/dark variants across chat, sheets, and input; defaults to
    Light Blue (#4).

Fixed

  • FragmentManager: bound reassembly memory with per-set and global byte caps plus
    LRU eviction, preventing memory exhaustion from many in-flight fragment sets (#6).
