[Editing messages fixed] Before the fix, when you edited a message in a way that changed it length significantly (from short to very long message and the other way around) or added / removed link to a message, it couldn’t be edited. Now it’s improved, so when you change message content, it is updated properly.
[Toolbar no longer hides the chat] Before the fix, when you stop typing a message to send the picture or attachment, sometimes toolbar tend to hide behind the sent file. Now it’s improved, so if you interrupt writing to send something during typing, the keyboard is minimized. To start typing again, simply tap on the text field.
[No possibility to call Private Account] Before the fix, person unfollowed by a Private Account had a possibility to tap Voice call or Video call options in the chat with you, but in reality they were not calling, because you never received the notification about their call. Now it’s improved, so call options are hidden for such a person.
KingsChat version 15.4.0

Changes: Mar 6, 2025
Version 15.2.0
[Messages status changing from Delivered to Seen fixed] Before the fix, already read messages were not marked as Seen unless you closed the chat. Now it’s improved, so the unread messages counter indicates the correct number of new messages.
[Persisting red bar after ended call fixed] Before the fix, the red bar at the top of the screen sometimes remained visible, even after you have hung up the call, making it impossible to call again. Now it’s fixed, so you don’t have to reopen the app to get rid of this problem, red bar will disappear properly and you will be able to make new calls without issues.
[Chat toolbar resizing fixed] Before, when you pasted a long text into the chat and hide keyboard or tried to edit a long message, toolbar was not displayed as expected. Now it’s improved, so you can write long messages and the chat toolbar is going to resize properly.
[Leaving group as the last participant] Before, it was not intuitive to leave the group as the last participant left. Now it’s improved, so you will see clear question if, as the last person present, you want to Leave and delete the group.
[Confirmation of deleting 1-1 chats fixed] Before, when you tried to delete the 1-1 chat with a person, you saw the misleading Leave group? pop up. Now it’s changed, so it’s not confusing that you actually delete 1-1 conversation and not leaving the group.
