Device list, detail, and block list under Settings, plus the two sheets:
an incoming offer and a device asking to be remembered. Both are
answer-only, since swiping away would leave the sender waiting.
Accepting an offer routes the released ticket into the ordinary receive
path, so the platform still chooses the destination. The prompt does not
ask a second time; it only falls back to the review sheet when the
destination is unusable.
Drop the Share-diagnostics preference, its Settings toggle and the
DiagnosticsBuildConfig stub. Bug reporting (NoopBugReportService) and the
diagnostics install id used for bug-report correlation are retained.
The earlier approval-modal fix folded SnackbarHost and the approval modal into a
single OverlayLayer child; nested that way the approval host's full-bleed clear
layer covered the toast, so snackbars stopped appearing.
Split them: rename OverlayLayer to ApprovalLayer (approval modal only) and hoist
SnackbarHost to a top-most direct child of the root ZStack, observing the live
`graph.messages` directly. The toast now renders above the overlay again.
The approval modal never appeared for a macOS sender: the receiver request
reached the core and even fired its notification, but the modal stayed hidden.
Root cause was observation, not presentation. `RootView` derived `approvals`
and `messages` as `@ObservedObject` in `init` from a freshly built `AppGraph`.
`init` runs on every view re-creation and each run makes a throwaway graph, so
those observed objects were repointed to a dead `ApprovalCoordinator` that never
receives core events — while the persisted `@StateObject graph` (and the models
wired to it) kept the live one. Debug happened not to re-init the view, so it
stayed on the live instance; release re-inits it, exposing the bug.
Move the snackbar + approval modal into an `OverlayLayer` child view that takes
the coordinator/messages as `@ObservedObject` and is constructed in `body` from
the persisted `graph`, so the subscription is always against the live instances.
While here:
- Present the approval only after any open share/QR sheet has actually finished
dismissing (macOS can't stack sheets), driven off the sheet's real
`onDismiss` completion via a new `AdaptiveDrawer.onDismissed` hook and
`SendModel.shareSheetsDismissed` — no wall-clock delay.
- Move the list-level share-sheet state (`shareTargetId`) into `SendModel` so the
approval flow can dismiss every share surface centrally.
- Add a fallback: pending receiver rows in the Receivers panel now offer an
Approve action (`SendModel.acceptReceiver`) alongside Refuse, for the case the
modal didn't surface.
Approval modal: since the Share/QR sheet auto-opens after creating a transfer,
it is always up when a receiver request arrives, and macOS silently drops a sheet
presented while another is still dismissing — so the approval sheet never appeared.
Drive the approval sheet from explicit state (not a constant binding) and, on
macOS, defer its presentation one dismiss-beat after closing the Share/QR sheet so
the hand-off is serialized. Still a non-dismissable sheet; iOS timing unchanged.
Sandboxed file sharing: the macOS picker released its security scope immediately,
so the core's later import failed with EPERM under the App Store sandbox (the
non-sandboxed .dmg was unaffected). Capture a security-scoped bookmark at pick
time and re-acquire access across shareFiles() — during which the core imports the
bytes — mirroring the receive-folder scoped-access pattern.
Add a second macOS shipping channel alongside the App Store build:
- New VniDropDirect target (Release-Direct config) sharing VniDrop's sources via
an AppBase target template; links Sparkle behind the DIRECT_DISTRIBUTION flag so
the App Store binary never bundles a self-updater. arm64-only (core is arm64).
- Sparkle updater (SparkleUpdater.swift) + "Check for Updates" menu, compiled only
under DIRECT_DISTRIBUTION; Info.plist SUFeedURL points at the GitHub Release
/latest/download/appcast.xml, non-sandboxed entitlements for Developer ID.
- build-dmg.sh (archive → Developer ID export → DMG → sign → notarize → staple),
generate-appcast.sh, and ExportOptions-DeveloperID.plist.
- apple-release.yml: on tag v*.*.*, build/notarize the DMG, publish the GitHub
Release with appcast, and push the Homebrew cask to sudosylabs/homebrew-vnidrop.
apple.yml gains a PR compile-check of the direct target.
- CFBundleVersion is stamped at build time as a UTC YYMMDD.HHMM timestamp for both
channels, replacing the hand-maintained build number.
- Docs (RELEASE-MACOS.md, README), cask template + tap README, localized
updates_check string, Makefile targets, gitignore for dist/ artifacts.
iOS suspends the process on backgrounding, freezing the core's network
threads so in-flight transfers stall and never fire notifications. Hold a
UIApplication background-task assertion (BackgroundActivityController) while
transfers/shares are active so iOS grants its grace window — long enough to
finish and notify. Released on foreground, on completion, or on expiration.
No UIBackgroundModes added (keeps App Store validation clean); macOS is a
no-op since it already runs unfocused.
Add a localized iOS-only Settings notice explaining the platform limit so it
doesn't read as a bug.
The core initializes asynchronously at launch, so for a moment the transfer lists
look empty and the app feels stalled. Show a full-window overlay (centered spinner
+ "Starting…") as the top layer of the root stack while coreState.isInitialized is
false; it fades out once the core is ready.
macOS uses a single-instance `Window` scene instead of `WindowGroup`, which
otherwise lets the app open multiple windows (via ⌘N). iPadOS sets
`UIApplicationSupportsMultipleScenes = false` to block a second scene via Stage
Manager / split view. (`LSMultipleInstancesProhibited` only blocks a second
process, not a second window.)
Adds background notifications for the "the thing you were waiting for is
done" moments, alongside the existing incoming-approval-request one:
- a receive finished downloading (receive -> done)
- a receive failed / was interrupted (receive -> failed)
- a share you own failed (send -> failed)
- a receiver finished downloading your share (receiver status completed)
A new TransferNotificationCoordinator observes core state + signals and
publishes these; the decision of which moments notify is a pure function
(plannedTransferNotifications / plannedReceiverNotifications), unit-tested
independently. The first state snapshot only primes existing history as seen
so launch doesn't spam.
Notification permission is now the single source of truth. The in-app
notifications toggle and its decoupled UserDefaults preference are gone;
the Settings section shows an "Allow notifications" button that requests the
OS permission (or deep-links to Settings once decided), and notifications
gate purely on `permission == .granted`.
macOS delivery fixes:
- add a UNUserNotificationCenterDelegate so banners present even while the
app is active (the app window is usually open on macOS)
- present-when-active on macOS, suppress-when-foregrounded on iOS
- reserve the notification id before awaiting publish: the CombineLatest
fired several times and re-added the same identifier, which macOS
coalesces into a silent update with no banner
- LocalNotificationService seeds its permission at init so gating can't
race a not-yet-refreshed .notDetermined
Eight localized title/body strings added (apple-only); the shared
notifications_description copy is generalized from "receive requests" to
"transfer activity".
Replaces every stringly-typed SF Symbol name with a compile-time-checked
SFSymbol case, mirroring the L10n accessor approach. A mistyped or
OS-unavailable symbol is now a build error instead of a silently blank
glyph at runtime.
Adds the SFSafeSymbols SPM package (project.yml) and migrates all call
sites: Image(systemName:)/Label(systemImage:) -> systemSymbol, and the
five symbol-carrying view properties (AppDestination.systemSymbol,
SettingsRow.icon, AboutPoint.symbol, MethodRow.icon, PolicyOption.icon)
flipped from String to SFSymbol end to end.
Replaces every stringly-typed localization key in the Apple app with
compile-time-checked accessors generated from localization/strings.json.
A mistyped key is now a build error instead of a silent fallback to the
raw key at runtime. The runtime path is unchanged: plain keys are
String.LocalizationValue constants resolved with String(localized:) and
Apple's String Catalog still does the lookup; keys with arguments become
typed, named functions applying args through String(format:).
Generator: new renderSwiftAccessors emits apple/VniDrop/Generated/L10n.swift,
wired into generate. Renamed generic arg1/arg2 tokens on four keys to
semantic names (receiver, transferName, deviceId) and updated their context
notes; positional output is unchanged so .xcstrings (bar the 4 comments)
and the Android XML regenerate identical.
Migration: every key-carrying value flipped to String.LocalizationValue
end to end, resolved only at the leaf. Zero key literals and zero
LocalizedStringKey remain in app or test code. macOS build passes; iOS
test run pending.
Enable complete strict concurrency and switch the app target to Swift 6.
- Isolate model dependency protocols to @MainActor
- Make the CoreRepository blocking-FFI bridge race-free: nonisolated(unsafe)
core handle, nonisolated runCore/readSnapshot, @Sendable work block,
Sendable domain models
- Fix Binding method-reference captures; @preconcurrency imports for
CoreNFC/AVFoundation/VnidropCore; isolate the NFC/QR delegate helpers
- Settings: add Storage screen (size breakdown + delete-all-transfers) and
expand About (what it is/isn't, privacy & security, license/source)
- Move Report a bug to a toolbar sheet (cancel-only unless empty)
- Send progress: derive the list-row bar from receiver delivery status so it
clears once every receiver completes
- Fixes: iPad orientations, onChange(of:) iOS 17 API, weak-self captures,
invalid SF Symbol, macOS bug-report form labels; bump core build target to
match the app (18.2/15.0)
- Sender progress: aggregate only in-flight receivers so the bar clears on
completion and is order-independent ("Sending to N")
- Add Stop sharing and per-receiver Refuse (pending requests) on the sender
- Fix macOS: raise approval modal above the Share sheet; drive foreground
state off NSApplication so background notifications fire
- Persist app identity (display name, category) and signing team via
Info.plist / project.yml / gitignored Local.xcconfig
Add a native SwiftUI VniDrop app (Send/Receive/Settings) talking to the
Rust core via generated UniFFI Swift bindings, plus the uniffi-bindgen
helper crate. iOS uses a TabView, macOS a NavigationSplitView sidebar.
