where you can protect with your lock/pin apps from being opened or even visible at all<br/><br/>in case it was in a laptop where it is much easier to steal since even if you could show an unavoidable warning about the profile transfer as discussed at <a href="https://support.delta.chat/t/dont-allow-to-delete-device-messages-chat-and-some-of-its-messages/4693">https://support.delta.chat/t/dont-allow-to-delete-device-messages-chat-and-some-of-its-messages/4693</a> also the program data folder could be just copied, this is a problem of the low security of desktop systems, better never let anyone use your laptop in the same session as your personal session, you could have a guess session/user for such situations<br/><br/>if the worse happened and you suspect someone took your profile (which you would notice because some messages you didn&#39;t read are not notified and appear as already read), there is no safe way out of it, since your identity lives in your pockets in your devices (the encryption identity) and not in a server, if someone gets it the only safe way out is to create a new profile and tell everyone to block the older contact and remove the old contact from all groups etc 2026-04-01T13:37:39Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsrxwndjwwsar2v0mqmw5tuwfmj7g8judwuvq2kv7pe40tg0tm5anszyp377vhy5rx9zvv424drr42a5x302jddkuxsddsftl5y2ygxzqtjwhfj5qp ArcaneChat 2.22.0 is on its way to [Google Play](<a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.github.arcanechat">https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.github.arcanechat</a>) and [f-droid](<a href="https://f-droid.org/packages/chat.delta.lite/">https://f-droid.org/packages/chat.delta.lite/</a>) and should be available in the upcoming days, can&#39;t wait? for other download options check <a href="https://arcanechat.me/">https://arcanechat.me/</a><br/><br/>**🔮 What&#39;s new?**<br/><br/>★ target Android 15<br/><br/>★ improve readability of info messages in dark mode<br/><br/>★ fix Direct Share shortcuts<br/><br/>★ add better experimental built-in calls with ringing!<br/><br/>★ fix some small bugs<br/><br/>💜 Help keep ArcaneChat (and several of its in-chat mini-apps and bots) independent and make it even more awesome in the future: <a href="https://arcanechat.me/#contribute">https://arcanechat.me/#contribute</a><br/>(new options to donate with crypto added to the page!) 2025-10-25T02:18:18Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsdeup798xsh7g8sjf3jmh9s9vzgtfrsejr82ectwvt3jv77kteelczyp377vhy5rx9zvv424drr42a5x302jddkuxsddsftl5y2ygxzqtjwa8r0c2 ArcaneChat 1.56.1 is already available in [Google Play](<a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.github.arcanechat">https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.github.arcanechat</a>) and should be available in [f-droid](<a href="https://f-droid.org/packages/chat.delta.lite/">https://f-droid.org/packages/chat.delta.lite/</a>) in the upcoming days, for other download options check <a href="https://arcanechat.me/">https://arcanechat.me/</a><br/><br/>**🔮 What&#39;s new?**<br/><br/>★ ignore click in info-messages from deleted in-chat apps<br/><br/>★ data saving: do not send messages to the server if user is the only member of the chat in single-device usage<br/><br/>★ protect metadata: encrypt message&#39;s sent date<br/><br/>★ do not fail to send messages in groups if some encryption keys are missing<br/><br/>★ synchronize contact name changes across devices<br/><br/>★ fix changing group names that was not working in some situations<br/><br/>★ fix: do not show outdated message text in &#34;Message Info&#34;
