This release brings a few new features to enhance your integration into the Apple ecosystem, as well as a handful of bug fixes and optimizations!

The Big Stuff

Ability to leave a chat via the API (Private API required)
Ability to set or remove a group icon/photo via the API (Private API required; Big Sur+)
Ability to get a contact's Focus Mode Status via the API (Private API required; Monterey+)
Ability to force-notify a message for contacts with Focus Mode enabled, via the API (Private API required; Monterey+)
Chat read detection
- When a chat is marked as read on your macOS device, the server will emit an event to tell clients that a the chat should be marked as read.
Ability to fetch a Handwritten Message or Digital Touch message from the API (Private API required)
Fix timeout when creating a new chat

Database listeners now utilize the message ROWID to detect changes in the database.
- This will make the DB listeners even more reliable to ensure no messages are "missed"
Adds support for Focus Mode DB fields in all Message payloads (Monterey+)
Enhanced (more reliable) group icon fetching capabilities
Support for emitting events for group icon updates/removals
- This includes webhook support for these events
The /message/count endpoint now can take a minRowId or maxRowId parameter to fetch a count based on a ROWID range
The properties field is now returned with Chat payloads

Fixes issue where the metadata.count field in the /message/query and /chat/query endpoints would be inaccurate
Fixes occasional startup crash on some macOS devices (mainly Big Sur+)
- This was due to a faulty permissions library dependency.
Fixes issue displaying an API error's details in the logs

The server will not send messages to its' UI until the UI if fully loaded
- This helps prevents startup lag and unnecessary processing
The DB listeners now implement startup delays to prevent server lag and DB locks
The Group Update DB listener now polls every 5 seconds (previously 2x the configured frequency)
Removed some logging to reduce log size and noise in the logs
Increases API payload size limit to 100mb
- This was to support those of you with large contact exports (from Android)
Upgraded Private API Helper to v0.0.13
