Releases: getAlby/hub
v1.6.0 Eric Blossom
In this release we've done a major update to Alby Hub's transaction processing code, which enables internal keysend payments, and NIP-47 notifications for internal payments, both which improve Alby Hub's isolated apps feature and the ability to host subaccounts for friends, family, merchants, podcasters and more.
In the UI we've replaced all the Javascript prompts, confirmations and alerts with proper dialogs, and added a brand new screen for withdrawing savings balance. We also now have high fee alerts, so you are automatically warned against opening channels during fee spikes.
We've also fixed a few important bugs, such as the migration function on Mac, savings balance withdrawal when no channels are open, and updated LDK-node with a fix for a rare deadlock in the sync mechanism, and log rotation to prevent Alby Hub from using too much disk space.

v1.4.1 Derek Atkins
In this release Alby Hub is more mobile friendly! you should be able to open your Alby Hub in your mobile phone browser and more easily navigate. We've again focused on fixing and polishing our existing features, and addressing issues observed by early adopters. Most importantly, Alby Hub now deletes duplicated getalby.com connections after disconnecting and re-linking your hub, which was leading to a lot of confusion. You can also now unlink your Alby Account and login with a different Alby Account, for those users who manage multiple Alby Accounts.
Patch 1.4.1
This patch contains a fix to invoice creation in LND for users who only have private channels, where route hints were not generated. It also fixes an issue where podcasting payments were showing up twice on the transaction list, and improves relay reconnection logic by using an exponential backoff interval.
What's Changed
- fix typo by @bumi in #384
- fix: duplicate transaction entry in keysend payments by @rolznz in #385
- fix: use private channels in invoice routing by @im-adithya in #386
- fix: remove DO and update deploy readme by @bumi in #390
- fix: reconnect to relay immediately on first retry by @im-adithya in #338
- chore: log events by default by @rolznz in #389

v1.2.0 John Gilmore
In this release of Alby Hub we have redesigned the app connection UI and introduced a new "Isolated" app type which you can share with friends and family members and become their "Uncle Jim"! internally Alby Hub now has a dedicated database of all transactions, providing much more context to how your wallet is being used across apps. We also have improved a lot of onboarding pain points, with an improved onboarding checklist and sidebar, completely reworked node migration UI, and many bugfixes. Unfortunately in this release your wallet transaction history will be cleared as Alby Hub switches to maintaining its own internal transaction list instead of relying on the node backend.

v1.1.0 Tim May
In this release we address some feedback from early adopters, especially around onboarding, linking the Alby Account, and opening channels. When linking your Alby account, we now have a modal that explains exactly what is happening and allow you to choose your budget before confirming. Open channel links now take into account if users have enough funds from their Alby shared node balance to use to open a channel when migrating, and we've re-added the main "Open Channel" button from the node page, with links to easily increase receiving capacity. We've also added a transaction details popup when clicking on transactions on the wallet page, so you can see the fees and preimage of any transaction.
