We'll take a break now, and should be back with the next update for early September. Whats new? ---------- * Easily switch between open Android apps in the homescreen by tapping on their respective active covers i.e they are no longer grouped into one cover (This feature is experimental. You may face some issues while interacting with open Android apps, for e.g while running concurrent apps playing audio, closing apps that have been in the background for days etc.) * Add shortcuts to webpages in the app launcher area * Set separate synchronization schedules per mail account * Upload multiple files via Browser and be able to to filter files by file type during file selection * Define email signature and sender name per account * Save unsent messages as drafts when messages app is pushed to background * Search word auto-completion in Jolla Store * Use stroke input method for writing in Chinese * Define an end date when creating/modifying recurring calendar events * Artist search support in Media player Highlights of improvements -------------------------- First time usage * New version of tutorial app for beginners * Improved "Get your content" page in the Startup wizard Connectivity * New version of the connectivity stack Calendar * Enhanced day view: sparser background, support for 12h clock, all-day events shown right aligned near the top right corner when active * App cover no longer displays already occurred events * 'Edit' option is now available in the context menu (in addition to 'Delete') Security * Fixes kernel vulnerabilities CVE-2014-0196, CVE-2014-2851 and CVE-2014-3122 Jolla store * Displays top categories (Apps, Games, Jolla, Marketplaces) in the landing page and access sub-categories using left flick * Displays OS update size before downloading the update * Sorts "My apps" in alphabetical order Settings/Accounts * Enhanced layout for accounts settings * Displays account status information (disabled/not-logged in) and sync status of newly created accounts in the accounts overview page * Allows disabling/enabling accounts from the context menu on the accounts listed in the accounts overview page * Checks for missing profiles before doing a profile sync, and only syncs the required profiles Mail * Improved HTML email viewer * Ensures email accounts are automatically enabled/disabled if Mail app is installed/uninstalled * Email signature and sync settings options removed from Mail app settings, instead can be set from the corresponding account settings Active Sync/Exchange * Updates default protocol used from version 12.0 to 14.0 * Improves handling of provision policy checks Phone * Implements reliability fixes to call duration logging * Does not force minimized calling view to foreground during an active call * A third incoming call (waiting call) is now handled properly when there are already two calls active * DTMF tones and other indicator tones played during the voice call now follows the voice call volume Messages * Increases opacity and font size for message legibility Sharing * Sharing options list layouts have been polished Bluetooth * Improves detection of suitable Bluetooth devices for file sharing by checking whether the device offers 'Object Transfer' service.

Adding another video solves the issue * Sometimes backups are not fully restored, a new trial usually fixes the issue * Running concurrent Android apps playing audio is still experimental, for the time being we recommend to only use one at a time Note to developers As a follow up to the Changes to RPM side-loading and packagekit authorization thread in the mailing list (https://lists.sailfishos.org/pipermail/devel/2014-June/004529.html) we will introduce a polkit UI in one of the upcoming releases, so users can confirm installation requests. Some apps such as Warehouse will be affected by this change and need to be updated, i.e the app needs to either white-list itself in the polkit policy rules or provide a built-in polkit authentication agent as described in http://www.freedesktop.org/software/polkit/docs/latest/polkit-agents.html.
