Implement optional wifi whitelist #277

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
mbarclay brought to my attention something obvious that I was missing; any wifi 
network we connect to could, of course, end up receiving notifications.

I imagine that most of us will only actually be catching the notifications on 
one or two frequent networks, such as home and office, so I propose an "only 
notify on the following wireless networks:" list.

I proposed in the developers mailing list that the android app should send 
notifications only over TCP to the desktop app directly instead of broadcasting 
them to everyone like it does today. This and encryption would allow you to 
have secure notifications without needing to configure a whitelist.

Fantastic alternative!

We'll keep the UDP option though, since it's much easier to use, but you can 
always disable UDP + enable encryption if you have security concerns.
