Message delivery issue in v5.1, possible temporary workarounds until we fix.
We just confirmed that there is some message delivery bug in v5.1, working to diagnose the root cause and to fix it.
The symptom is that the messages are stopped being received by some contacts (and group members), and some users say it happens in 2 days after establishing the connection.
Possible temporary workarounds, until we fix (either of these works):
- downgrade the app to 5.0 (you will be asked to confirm downgrade on start, and reactions will be lost, but it will work) - all stuck messages are delivered. After upgrading back to v5.1 disrupted contacts continue to work - difficult to say for how long. It would be great if anybody could confirm that this worked for you, as we only could confirm it on one device so far.
- create a new connection with the same contact - it seems to work for 2 days.
Certainly do not install v5.1 if you have a choice, looking if it's possible to temporarily pull v5.1 from app stores.
Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for all your support!
