just a quick question. . I made a comment about adding numbers to the new messages in the chats screen. Any way you can add it?

I can add pdf, doc, xls and more. But, can we send those type of files through whatsapp server? That's the real question. You can't send those type of files in android, and I supose the same happens in other systems.

BUT that depends on whether this is WhatsApp not wanting users to have the extra functionality OR their servers are physically unable to send/receive such files.

TBH a file sending server can't really be unable to send different types of files, they are all just pieces of binary. The real limit will be the sizes of the files.

Meaning you might be able to send .flac files but not 100MB ones.

If that makes sense.

The files may be pieces of binary code but Whatsapp servers can easily filter them out by file extension. If the extensions are renamed it is another matter of course.

IMO, it is better not to put extra functionality beyond what the official Whatsapp client has. This may be used as a red flag by Whatsapp to filter and ban N9 users using such functionality. Nor do we want to mess up their servers if they are not equipped to handle them.

also clients on iphones and androids might not know how to handle new extensions. They know right now what extensions should fire what apps (pictures fires the media viewer) but what will PDF open if the client doesnt have a PDF viewer, same for ppt, or other extensions

Not sure if this helps, but there is limitation of 12MB (or 9MB?) for media sharing

Excellent work so far..

But how possible is it to integrate wazapp into the availability pane?
With all the issues related to connection, we can have an icon on the status menu informing us (at a glance) if we are connected or not.
And have the flexibility to go offline "Quit" wazzap without opening the app.
