• For those of you who like to listen closely, we improved earpiece proximity detection on newer iPhones. Now you can call someone without accidentally hanging up on them with your cheek as often, and you can also quietly play new voice notes without the screen shining in your ear too.
• The media player looks a lot better in landscape mode, and we repositioned common playback controls so that things don’t feel so sideways even when your device is sideways.
• If someone @mentions you in a reply to a group story, you’ll get notified as expected.
• We added support for line wraps for long profile names, and now the entire name will appear instead of being partially truncated with an ellipsis. You can still deliberately include an ellipsis in your profile name if you want to be “Mysterious…”

• We searched for a way to improve search performance, so now you can find the right chat without needing to find as much patience.

• Now you can quickly see how many images or videos will be included when you forward an album, and you can also choose to cancel the process and wait for a WiFi connection before re-sharing 47 pictures from a recent birthday party. If today is your birthday, happy birthday from Signal.

• Hot on the heels of their introduction in the last release, the fast-forward and rewind icons for long videos have been updated to look slightly fast-er and a bit more rewind-er.
• Long captions in the media viewer can now be expanded with a tap, which lets you see more of the image if your friend sends a picture worth a thousand words with a rambling caption that’s also a thousand words.

• The magic of VHS and Betamax technology from the 1970s is now available in the palm of your hand. Revolutionary new Fast Forward and Rewind buttons will appear on long videos (30 seconds or more) so you can skip to the good parts or get back to something you missed.

• Share more things from more places. The share extension now has better support for the text format that various popular news apps share by default. We also squashed a bug that sometimes caused your first attempt to fail when sharing something.
• Speaking of sharing, another bug was making it difficult to share text content from other apps like Apple Notes as Signal Stories. Text has arguably been an important component of some of the best stories throughout history, so we're excited to close the chapter on this particular problem.
• New animation improvements in the media and avatar viewers let you smoothly step back and see the big picture.
• We fixed a couple of layout issues that could cause buttons to show up in the wrong place on new iPhones, like invisible castaways marooned underneath Apple's Dynamic Island.
• This update also includes support for Cantonese and Uyghur.

• The new and improved All Media view makes it easier to spot old GIFs in your favorite chats, keep track of where you are in the timeline while scrolling, and see the length of individual videos.
• We fixed a few bugs, including one that sometimes made an endless progress spinner appear while trying to leave a group. If you have been enthusiastically trying to escape from an "Escape Room Enthusiasts" group, the puzzle has been solved and the door is now open.
