1. Amethyst - v1.03.0: Built-in video recording
Amethyst is a Nostr client for Android, and this release adds built-in video recording with a new “record and post video” button. This update improves live streaming by activating streams in the top feed bubble, enhances visibility of authors, and enables custom TextToSpeech engines. It also fixes crashing relay URIs, relay settings duplication, and streaming flag issues while improving crash report handling. Other refinements include better URL error handling, memory management for follow lists, basic support for expiring DMs, and smoother posting, streaming, and relay management.
