Also building a Google Play Store build. It should be available tomorrow.

If you're using AMOLED theme: It's using default Night's theme ID, damn 😔

In GP version the bug is fixed, later the fix will be uploaded here

15 hours passed and still in review, thanks Google Play

Catogram 2.4 arm7

CG-SIDE:
- Now CG preferences use a system-designed list popup instead of AirUI. (but will behave as before if "Modern popup" message style is ON)
- Hide messages from blocked users* (beta)
- Added an option to return Telegram icon to the notifications
- AirUI updates

* means that the feature is marked as controversial - this means you need to do certain steps to allow it (more details soon)

Catogram 2.5 arm7

CG-SIDE:
- Added admin tools to the popup thing when you longtap on avatar
- Added an abillity to change message swipe action

Don't worry about size. We'll apply ZipAlign later.

Building Google Play version right now.

It's out for everyone!

Includes "Change message swipe action" visual bugfix.

Well, updating target API version from P to Q caused original Telegram code to be broken AF (that’s why developing CG is hard)

I suggest using the Telegram version if you come across visual bugs in Google Play version.

Why I updated API version?

Original Telegram has API 28 by default (Android P), and Google Play allows new updates only from API 29.

It seems like with next official Telegram update, CG bugs like invisible cursor or writebar padding should be fixed.

2.5.1 is delayed to fix some important bugs, especially with unlimited pins.

Who has already downloaded - good, you can use it.

thanks for staying with us!

Catogram 2.5.1 arm7
This version has no Google Play bugs.

CG-SIDE:
- Added VKUI themes instead of stock Classic and Dark themes (you can enable back telegram themes in CG Settings > Appearance)
- Changed some defaults to match VKUI style
- Enable PiP in photo viewer by swiping (toggleable)
- Hide FAQ from settings
- Added an option to enable automatic rear camera for video message recording
- Added an option to disable pinning sync (unlimited pinned chats)
- Unlocked "Switch Backend" (experemental!)
- Added Ukrainian translation of CG settings (thanks @l3x71)
- CG Settings UI refresh

Guys, PLEASE DO NOT REPORT BUGS CAUSED BY “Switch Backend” FEATURE HERE.

IN CG IT IS ONLY UNLOCKED, THE WHOLE IMPLEMENTATION OF IT IS MADE BY OFFICIAL TELEGRAM DEVS

(any report about it results in a ban, you were warned.)

Also: if you don’t like VKUI styled theme or icons, it is always can be disabled.

Icons: CG Prefs -> Appearance -> Icon replacements
Themes: CG Prefs -> Appearance -> Official themes

Don’t forget to fully stop and open the app after switching it.
