v0.12.1

Release post: https://mau.fi/blog/2025-05-mautrix-release/

• Added prefix to identify forwarded messages on WhatsApp.
• Updated mime type of unconverted animated stickers to video/lottie+json which is now registered with IANA.

• Fixed backfilling messages in existing portals after relogining.

v0.12.0

Release post: https://mau.fi/blog/2025-04-mautrix-release/

• Migrated Signal session store to use new @lid identifiers to support future chats that don't expose phone numbers.
  • N.B. Old registration files may have [0-9]+ in the users regex. You must change it to .+, as the new lid identifiers are bridged as lid-<number> instead of just <phone number>.
• Added fallbacks for various business message types.
• Added support for bridging invites, kicks and leaves in groups.
• Re-added invite-link, join and sync commands for groups.
• Fixed bridging chats with Meta AI.

v0.11.4

Release post: https://mau.fi/blog/2025-03-mautrix-release/

• Fixed edits being bridged multiple times if a single chat had multiple logged-in Matrix users.
• Fixed bridging some types of business messages that were supposed to be supported (there are still some unsupported types).

v0.11.3

Release post: https://mau.fi/blog/2025-02-mautrix-release/

• Bumped minimum Go version to 1.23.
• Added support for signaling supported features to clients using the com.beeper.room_features state event.
• Fixed converting voice message duration and waveform.
• Fixed padding in stickers sent to WhatsApp sometimes being the wrong color.

v0.11.2

Release post: https://mau.fi/blog/2024-12-mautrix-release/

• Added better notice when view-once messages are unavailable.
• Fixed some cases of @lid user IDs being bridged incorrectly.
• Fixed starting chats by inviting Matrix ghosts.
• Updated Docker image to Alpine 3.21.

v0.11.1

Release post: https://mau.fi/blog/2024-11-mautrix-release/

• Added experimental support for direct media. This is not recommended for most users, as WhatsApp media is generally low volume and isn't stored permanently on the server.
• Re-added support for disabling status broadcasts.
• Re-added config options for which tag to use for archive/pinned chat bridging.
• Fixed own reactions sent from other clients in DMs not being bridged correctly.
• Fixed some bugs with legacy database migration.
• Fixed group chats not being bridged during initial login if the bridge hits ratelimits.

v0.11.0

Release post: https://mau.fi/blog/2024-10-mautrix-release/

• Bumped minimum Go version to 1.22.
• Dropped support for unauthenticated media on Matrix.
• Changed import path to go.mau.fi/mautrix-whatsapp.
• Rewrote bridge using bridgev2 architecture.
  • It is recommended to check the config file after upgrading. If you have prevented the bridge from writing to the config, you should update it manually.
  • Group management features and commands are not yet available. If you rely on those, it may be better to wait for the next release.

v0.10.9

• Added support for receiving Meta AI messages.
• Fixed m.relates_to handling bug in previous release.

v0.10.8

Note: this release has a bug handling replies in encrypted rooms from clients that don't use mautrix-go or matrix-rust-sdk. Element Web with Rust crypto and Element X should work fine, but other clients likely won't. It is recommended to skip this release if you use end-to-bridge encryption with such clients.

• Added proxying options to config.
• Updated fallback message for live locations and polls to clarify the user should open the native WhatsApp app.

v0.10.7

• Changed media download retries to be handled asynchronously instead of blocking other messages.
