Yappari 1.1.39 is alive now in extras/devel.

As usual and first: Thank you all for your donations! have been really helpful.

Features of 1.1.39 are:

* Fixed registration. I just tested it and it works, so no excuses.
* Push-to-talk: Press and hold the button and start talking, release to send. You have to at least talk 2 seconds to send something.
* There's a little green microphone icon at the side of the double green checkmark to indicate the other party listened to your voice note.
* Fixed random locations bug where the "Go" button wasn't working.
* I removed the "x stopped typing..." because it was annoying. If somebody stops typing/talking it just shows nothing.

You can all start testing!

EDIT: I forgot to tell you that there's also an option to change the quality of the voice notes you send:

- AAC (default), files are around 64 KB in size in average depending on how much you talk of course.
- AMR (tiny files - low quality), files are around 5 KB and recipients get it instantly.

The problem is that AMR encoding seems to be slow so you have to release the button like 2 or 3 seconds after you finished talking to avoid cuts in your audio.

AAC works perfect though.

In contrast Android clients send superb high quality voice notes that are around 200 KB ~ 300 KB in size and I think that's annoying.
