Remove message count until false positives are solved #51

Closed unpack5 closed 4 years ago

unpack5 commented 4 years ago

Until #35 is resolved, the number in the tray icon just distracts and sows doubt about whether there's a new message or not. Let's remove it until then, or at least make it optional. The app is useful enough in itself without a message counter.

Yeah, the false message count is distracting

Novack commented 4 years ago

Agree!

AdamWillden commented 4 years ago

Agree also.

D4koon commented 4 years ago

I made the message-counter optional and disabled it by default. See: https://github.com/D4koon/WhatsappTray/commit/bbbdaa9200806b28283852b4d3033faa9e196689

Here is the beta-version: Whatsapptray_optional_message_count_1.4.3.beta.zip Feedback would be nice thanks.

unpack5 commented 4 years ago

Works like a charm this far. Thank you!

berwynhoyt commented 4 years ago

Calvinder commented 4 years ago

Yes I wish we could fix this I tried the beta and it does not work for me at all it is like there is no whatsapp tray at all

Hi, unfortunately this Whatsapptray_optional_message_count_1.4.3.beta.zip beta version doesn't work for me also. Once I click minimize it doesn't go to tray, if I click close the WA program ends.

honeycombby commented 4 years ago

Hi, I tried to download the beta version again it works now (not sure what happened in the first attempt). Thanks!

DocJellyBean commented 4 years ago
