The dev team have certified a few apps as compatible, however this new feature should work with most Android apps that support in-line replies.
Certified apps:
- Android Messages
- Discord
- Twitter
- WhatsApp
- Telegram
We've also added a few quality of life updates, such as the ability to hide the control panel on start up and the ability to select which IP to use when pairing. If you've been having issues pairing your phone please try the new IP selector on the pair screen.
