Preferred to the system contact picker because:
1. removes "group" clutter from header, unlikely to be used much.
2. can select while searching
3. fixes unified contact problem where e.g.
If only one of your contact has a phone number, they appear disabled
when choosing to invite via messaging, even though the other linked
contact *does* have a phone number.
4. label users w/o email so it's clearer why they can't be selected
Also:
* Twitter share-image was too tall
// FREEBIE
* Spruce up compose contact-picker
- Fix random sorting for contacts missing first or last name
- Add Avatar to contact picker
- de-dupe contacts
Better copy for INVALID_MESSAGE error.

Data detectors work by matching local text against a series of local
matchers. No network activity is required. Some of the data detectors
are really useful (e.g. a link, or being able to copy a phone number).
Some aren't very useful, e.g. pop culture references, and seeing things
underlined is giving people the false impression that their data is
being inspected remotely.
// FREEBIE
When your partner changes their identity key (e.g. by reinstalling),
you'll see a notice alongside their message, but it will no longer
prevent the message from showing. aka "non blocking".
Existing users will be opted into the previous blocking behavior.
This is configurable for all users in Settings > Privacy.
// FREEBIE
This action was previously hidden under a secret longpress gesture in
the fingerprint view controller.
Ideally we'd never receive corrupted messages, but at the point we do,
our sessions are out of whack, and the only recovery option is to reset.
Let's help our users do that.
* Resetting session sends END_SESSION message
Otherwise the remote side wouldn't know we reset the session and will
send us a message on the old ratchet.
* Don't reset their identity key when resetting sender ratchet.
* Updated translations
// FREEBIE
The earlier fix for the broken ios10 emoji font ended up breaking
messages for some users with a tall font.
Here we have a lighter touch - ensuring we don't touch messages that
don't use emoji.
Also, introduce a different approach to the fix, rather than trying to
compute the bounding rect of an appropriately attributed string, just
add an extra bit of height per line.
This approach isn't ideal for long messages with only one emoji line in
them, but the previous approach was incompatible with Chinese messages
that also contain emoji. See the new
`MesssagesBubblesSizeCalculatorTest.swift` for test cases considered.
// FREEBIE
* Separate registering an account from registering for push notifications
* Allows us to complete registration without prompting user for
notification settings.
UX Changes
----------
* Automatically keep push tokens in sync on startup.
Push tokens *can* change, though they rarely do. It happens more often
for people switching between appstore/beta builds.
fixes#1174
* Show alert with registration failure
* add secret 8-tap debug log gesture to registration flow
* Move registration to separate flow
* don't see flash of inbox when first launching
* show useful error messages when given wrong code / no code
* remove background fetch
We werent using it, but only relying on a side effect of it which is
no longer necessary.
Code Changes
------------
* More registration logging.
* Install PromiseKit with carthage
Our dependencies are not yet framework compatible, so we can't use
cocoapods.
* Merge preferences util "category" into superclass.
The immediate reason for this is Swift interop was assuming optional
types were not optional, and exploding when a value was nil.
This is clearer anyway, since we were treating it like a subclass, and
it was the only thing using the class anyway.
* auto-genstrings now searches *.swift (and *.h, which was previously
broken) for translateable strings.
// FREEBIE
Media bubbles (for photo, video and animated) sizes are calculated using shared logic. The bubbles are fixed width and their height is calculated based on the aspect ratio of the underlying image (clamped to a reasonable min/max height).
Fixes#1270
// FREEBIE
* ContactsUI framework is not available on ios<9.
And it never was, so this framework should not be "required".
* Fix conversation settings title font on ios8
* Fix fingerprint not displaying on ios8
* ios8 safety number indented on third line.
* Fix glitchy table cell animation (not ios8 specific)
The defaut slide-under animation only looks good if you're using a
standard table cell height, but our duration slider is taller than the
rest of the table's cells.
Plus add a little bottom padding to the slider cell
// FREEBIE
* Per thread settings menu accessed by tapping on thread title
This removed the toggle-phone behavior. You'll be able to see the phone
number in the settings table view.
This removed the "add contact" functionality, although it was already
broken for ios>=9 (which is basically everybody).
The group actions menu was absorbed into this screen
* Added a confirm alert to leave group (fixes#938)
* New Translation Strings
* Extend "Add People" label to fit translations.
* resolved issues with translations not fitting in group menu
* Fix the long standing type warning where TSCalls were assigned to a TSMessageAdapter.
* Can delete info messages
Follow the JSQMVC pattern and put UIResponder-able content in the
messageBubbleContainer. This gives us more functionality *and* allows us
to delete some code. yay!
It's still not yet possible to delete phone messages. =(
* Fixed some compiler warnings.
* xcode8 touching storyboard. So long xcode7!
* Fixup multiline info messages.
We were seeing info messages like "You set disappearing message timer to
10" instead of "You set disappearing message timer to 10 seconds."
Admittedly this isn't a very good fix, as now one liners feel like they
have too much padding.
If the message is well over one line, we were wrapping properly, but
there's a problem when the message is *just barely* two lines, the cell
height grows, but the label still thinks it's just one line (as evinced
by the one line appearing in the center of the label frame. The result
being that the last word of the label is cropped.
* Disable group actions after leaving group.
// FREEBIE
Rather than verifying eachothers keys separately, you now verify the
privacy with your recipient by sharing a single composite number or
QRCode.
This is a breaking change, in coordination with Desktop and Android.
UX
--
Fingeprint is no longer in line with identity key error. Instead you
have the option of going to the full-screen safety number verification
experience.
Overhauled fingerprint design
-----------------------------
* use same modal dismiss button as elsewhere
* remove fingerprint from settings.
* quick slide in animation vs slow fade
* existing was painfully slow
* blur effect is better metaphor for something slide over top
* anyway there was a rendering glitch in the end of fade where
underlying navbar would "snap" out
Also Fixed
----------
Always provide a name string for contact
* Centralize all the nil-checking
* Fall back to "unknown contact"
allow multi-line error messages
// FREEBIE
Even though it's pretty obvious why we need your camera when you push a
"take photo" button...
Unfortunately this warning will be confusing if someone's first exposure
to it is to scan an identity code, but that seems like an edge case not
worth pegging an extra sentence of copy to an already unnecessary
warning.
Also, we're enabling push notifications for dev, per apple build
submission feedback.
// FREEBIE
* New bg (Bulgarian) localization!
* New sq (Albanian) localization!
* replace unfinished bg_BG localization with complete bg localization
* caps keys to make it easier to see missing localizations
* pull with newly pushed source keys
// FREEBIE
The root of the problem is we were using the deprecated ALAssetsLibrary
framework, which couldn't find certain assets.
By using the photos framework not only are we able to find these
assets, but it also cleans up our code:
* no more copying byte buffers
* no more detecting file type
// FREEBIE
copy/save/delete is accessed via longpress for all media messages, just
like for simple text messages.
Notes
-----
We don't support saving audio attachments as it's not clear where they should go.
(I don't think users expect them to end up in their iTunes library.)
There is still no UX for "pasting" media into Signal.
Removed the now redundant (and confusing) "share" button interface.
//FREEBIE
This was done as part of unforking JSQMessagesViewController, but is
intentionally a separate commit so we can separate formatting changes
from code changes in git history.
* Import frameworks like:
#import <FrameworkName/HeaderName.h>
* instead of:
#import "HeaderName.h"
// FREEBIE
Geting back on upstream fixes a couple bugs (see ##Bugfixes), and also
will make future updates easier.
The unforking process was basically this:
* move custom message types (Calls and DisplayedMessages) classes from our
custom JSQMVC fork into Signal-iOS.
* Move any method customization into our subclass. Including
ColletionView stuff, bubble sizing, and gesture behavior
Bug Fixes
---------
* Fix mis-sized incoming media bubbles.
Bubble size was being cached by interaction id. Which broke when
receiving an attachment. The problem is that incoming media messages
were initially the height of a "Downloading Attachment" info message.
Instead we use the mediaHash for media messages to expire the bubble
size when the media changes.
* fix missized bubble when MVC did appear
The MessagesViewController isn't sized correctly until ViewWillAppear.
This caused the first round of bubbles to be rendered incorrectly (they
assumed a larger container than they had). I think is reflected in the
current version of the app by a reflow occurring shortly after the view
appears.
Chores
------
* bump travis to build with xcode8
* specify RQV development team for device build. required by xcode 8 beta
Cleanup
------
* Refactor messageing XIB so that elements are hangning outside of
the views frame
* Fix compiler warning with explicit cast
* delete deprecated lineBreakmode, it's the default value anyway.

* CocoaPods 1.0 compatibility. Thanks to @brianherman and @orta for the Podfile changes, taken from PR #1156
* Modified Travis-CI to use the newer CocoaPods 1.0 as well.
* Performance improvements to Travis-CI to reduce build time by 50%-75%
Cherry-picked and conflicts resolved by @michaelkirk

* Register localizations with app.
- Persian (fa)
- Indonesian (id)
- Macedonian (Macedonia) (mk)
- Shona (sn)
- Galacian (gl)

Generalized Macedonian locale since it seems like iOS doesn't support
the "Macedonia(Macedonia)" sub-locale
* disable farsi until proper RTL interface work is done

- Use single MessagesViewController. Goal: Being able to reuse that UI
for SplitViewController on iPad. Prevents unnecessary deallocations and
re-allocations.
- Remove custom archiving UI for default swipe right to left archive
action, like in iOS Mail.app.
- DynamicType for main view.
- Simplify API of MessagesViewController to prevent undefined behavior.

- Using same clang format file for old and new files.
- Moving out all TextSecure code to allow other clients (OS X, iOS) to
integrate easily TextSecure functionality.
- Use TextSecure API to signup.
Implemented using corbett's suggestion in issue #525. Uses
Flipboard/FLAnimatedImage in an AttachmentAdapter. Detects gifs using
new Animated category in MIMETypeUtil.
Backwards compatible with previous versions of Signal on iOS for both
sending and receiving Gifs, though they are sent/received in older
versions as UIImage and won't animate. Gifs also animate on both ends of
conversations with TextSecure users on Android.

- Fixes crash in migration for users who installed Signal <2.1.3 but hadn't signed up
yet.
- Xcode 7 / iOS 9 Travis Support
- Bitcode Support is disabled until it is better understood how exactly
optimizations are performed. In a first time, we will split out the
crypto code into a separate binary to make it easier to optimize the
non-sensitive code. Blog post with more details coming.
- Partial ATS support. We are running our own Certificate Authority at
Open Whisper Systems. Signal is doing certificate pinning to verify
that certificates were signed by our own CA. Unfortunately Apple's App
Transport Security requires to hand over chain verification to their
framework with no control over the trust store. We have filed a radar
to get ATS features with pinned certificates. In the meanwhile, ATS is
disabled on our domain. We also followed Amazon's recommendations for
our S3 domain we use to upload/download attachments. (#891)
- Implement a unified `AFSecurityOWSPolicy` pinning strategy accross
libraries (AFNetworking RedPhone/TextSecure & SocketRocket).
We’ve noticed that most people went to the App Store to leave really
bad reviews of the app and it is severely affecting our discoverability.
We will ask for a rating if we see you’ve been using the app for some
time. If you rate the app or decline to rate, that’s fine. We will
never bug you again!
