Threema 1.41 for Android

  • Improved contact linking and synchronization
    • Threema now automatically creates a new entry in the system's address book upon an incoming message of a new contact.
    • Simply link or unlink contacts with system address book entries directly from the contact info screen.
  • Exclude individual contacts from synchronization
    • If you don't want a contact to be linked with the address book and keep auto-sync from overriding your local modification, just exclude it from synchronisation in the contact info screen or in Threema Settings > Privacy > Exclusion List.
  • Block individual contacts
    • Blacklist any contact from sending you further messages using the "Block contact" menu in the contact info screen or in Threema Settings > Privacy > Blacklist.
  • Internal picture viewer
    • View pictures directly from within Threema.
  • Selectable contact list sorting order
    • Sort your contacts by first or last name and display contact names last name first or first name first.
  • Threema QR code scanner plugin
    • Threema for Android now supports our new QR code scanner plugin (downloadable free from Google Play Store: QR Scanner Plugin for Threema). The ZXing Barcode Scanner app will still be used if it's already installed.
  • Improved group chat handling
    • Leave groups directly from the chat list. Colored name tags now make it easy to distinguish between different group members.
  • Further enhancements
    • Optimized quick scrolling in chats
    • "Unread messages" indicator in chats
