REEF v0.1.1 — first outside-tester feedback round

A tester spent a day with REEF on desktop, mobile, and a real Sharkord server —
thank you! This release fixes the biggest things they hit.

Fixed

  • Mobile: microphone and camera now work. The Android app never declared
    the media permissions, so the OS silently denied them without ever asking.
    The app now shows the normal Android permission prompts the first time you
    join voice or turn on your camera.
  • Inbox updates live. The inbox used to refresh only when you clicked
    around the app — new messages (especially DMs) could sit invisible. It now
    updates the moment anything changes on any connected server.
  • "Mark all as read" actually works — and it marks your DMs too, not just
    channels.
  • Reconnecting after the app was backgrounded no longer dead-ends in
    "Could not connect: Failed to fetch" / "Unexpected token '<'". Dropped
    connections rebuild properly, and returning to the app silently resumes your
    servers with saved credentials. (Shipped for Android in the updated 0.1.0
    APK; this release brings it to desktop.)
  • Mobile welcome screen now says REEF mobile is a work in progress and
    hints that a second right-swipe opens the server rail.
  • Android launcher icon is now the REEF icon instead of the Capacitor
    default.

Plugin (reef 0.2.1 repack)

  • The plugin zip now extracts into a reef/ folder by itself — no more
    guessing that the folder must have exactly that name (the README also spells
    out the install steps now).
  • README clarifies why the GIF button may not appear: the host has to enable
    GIF search and enter a provider API key in the plugin settings.

Known issues / coming up

  • Notifications on mobile don't work yet — real push notifications (FCM,
    fed by the server plugin) are the next big work item.
  • Channel muting (with a visual cue) is planned; REEF currently only supports
    muting whole servers from the rail.
  • A proper loading screen while REEF connects to your servers on startup, and
    an in-app reconnect overlay, are on the list.

Downloads

  • Windows: REEF-Setup-0.1.1.exe (installer, auto-updates) or
    REEF-Portable-0.1.1.exe. Existing installs auto-update.
  • Android: REEF-Android-0.1.1-WIP.apk — install over the old one (no
    auto-update on Android yet, grab it manually).
  • Server plugin: reef-plugin-0.2.1.zip — unzip into your server's
    plugins/ directory.
