This would be a very important feature for mobile use to prevent everyone seeing mobile users disconnect/reconnect all the time in quick succession...

[mhellwig]

is there any info whether this can/will be added and with what sort of timeframe?

mobile XMPP is almost unusable without this.

This is really very important

Hi everyone,

I’d like to see this as well. Seeing that xabber is a client for android, therefore a primarily mobile client, this is a very important feature. I’m still trying to convince everyone and their mother to use xmpp as an alternative to facebook chats, google hangout and whatnot. But this is still difficult because every once in a while messages get lost when losing the connection. Yes, the little green check mark helps, but not everyone looks for that - constantly. I really think this should be a priority because it prevents people from taking xmpp seriously and using it on a daily basis.

Please don’t see this as a “I’m entitled to that feature, hurry up and programm”, I’m just trying to make the case for reliable message delivery. It would be really nice if you could share your thoughts on this feature. Are you considering it, is there an estimate for this feature, etc.

Thanks very much!

So this is why messages are lost sometimes. XEP-198 looks like a must-have on a mobile connection.

Hi, please, pretty please, implement this must-have feature on a mobile client. Otherwise messages get silently lost.
Thanks for you work!

Another one that loses messages because of this :(

When can we expect this "must-have extension" in Xabber?

Does someone know some other Android client with XEP-0198?

Securechat, Yaxim and Conversation

Would like to see XEP-0198 support in Xabber, too. The need is well-founded described here: http://op-co.de/blog/posts/XEP-0198/

Any news or progress in this matter?

Since the last update to the development edition of xabber is from september of last year, I'm pretty sure they abandoned this project and it doesn't seem that anyone is working on making xmpp a usable experience for mobile users. Sad state of affairs really.

Before August last year there had been a period of 6 months without any updates to the development version, so that's not a guarantee the project was abandoned.

According to twitter, they are still working on xabber development: https://twitter.com/Xabber_XMPP/status/428140402529402880
