Changelog

What changed in each version of Lupyd. The latest is 1.1.5; get it from the download page.

  1. 1.1.5

    Latest

    Groups that follow you to every device, Leave Group, and messages that are never lost to a group change.

    New

    • Leave Group: leave from any of your devices and the group goes from all of them. A member who left can be added back.
    • Groups reach all your devices: a group you create or join on one device shows up on the others, including ones that were offline or signed in later.
    • Renaming a group shows the new name on every device of every member.
    • Sign in with Apple.
    • On phones, the emoji tray takes the keyboard's place, so the message box no longer jumps when you switch between them.

    Improved

    • Chats scroll smoothly: sent and received messages glide fully into view instead of appearing half hidden and jumping.
    • Group chats on phones open at the latest message.
    • On desktop, hovering over a message no longer dims the whole screen.

    Fixed

    • A group message sent at the same moment as a group change (a rename, a new channel, someone joining or leaving) could be lost for some members.
    • Edits, deletes and reactions in direct messages now apply on every device of both people, not just the one they were made on.
    • Group owners can delete a group from its settings page again.
    • On a device whose clock runs behind, the newest messages could be missing from a chat.
    • Adding someone back to a group right after they joined could fail on one of their devices.
    • Signing up no longer gets stuck on "Username already taken" for the name you just claimed.

    Web

    • In a private window, Lupyd now explains why it needs a normal one: it keeps your encrypted messages in the browser's storage, which Firefox turns off in private windows.

  2. 1.1.4

    Messages to contacts with an old, silent device go through, and long-lived groups keep working.

    Fixed

    • Messages to a contact with a device that hadn't been used in over a month no longer stay stuck behind the clock icon.
    • Group membership credentials renew before they expire, so groups more than a year old can still take new members.

    Web

    • Notifications for new messages, in the page and from the browser.
    • Private windows that can't store messages are detected up front instead of breaking after sign-in.
    • Signing in with Google on Firefox no longer reloads the page.
    • Coming back online after a failed refresh reconnects straight away.

  3. 1.1.3

    Stay signed in through server hiccups, wrong clocks and crashes.

    Fixed

    • You stay signed in when the server briefly rejects a session, when your device's clock is wrong, or after the app crashes.
    • Only a sign-in that has really ended (revoked or expired) signs you out; failed refreshes retry with a pause instead.

    Removed

    • Single sign-on (SSO) sign-in.

  4. 1.1.2

    Lupyd on the web, presence, and sessions that stay alive.

    New

    • Lupyd in the browser at app.lupyd.com, with the same encryption as the apps.
    • Older direct messages load from your other devices, and group history loads as you scroll.
    • Presence: see who is online and when they were last seen, or hide your own status. Group member lists show who's online.
    • Log out of all devices from Settings; a removed device is signed out.
    • Sign in with a link sent to your email.

    Fixed

    • Phones no longer get signed out overnight.

  5. 1.1.1

    Offline mode, faster connections and message requests.

    New

    • Offline mode: read your chats and groups without a network; messages you write offline go out once you're back.
    • Message requests: messages from people you haven't accepted arrive as requests you can accept or decline.
    • Discover: find people and start a conversation.

    Improved

    • Faster, steadier connections (WebTransport first, WebSocket as a fallback).
    • Your devices moved to the Account page and chat backup to the Privacy page.
    • Calls and plan handling.

    Fixed

    • A crash when showing notifications on Android.
    • Keyboard layout in group channels on iPhone and iPad.

  6. 1.0.0

    The first stable release.

    New

    • End-to-end encrypted direct messages (Signal Protocol) and groups with channels (MLS), on desktop and Android.
    • Voice and video calls, group invites, photo and camera sharing, and group notifications.

    Fixed

    • A network crash on Android.

  7. 0.0.21 – 0.1.3

    Public betas, July to September 2026.

    New

    • Encrypted messaging and groups, message requests, group invites and calls.
    • Photos converted to WebP before upload, camera capture in chats, and group notifications.
    • The Linux AppImage.
