[Free] [Alpha] Lightbulb IM 0.3 (updated 01.04.2014)

Lightbulb 0.3
Maciej Janiszewski, 2013-2014

Hi everyone! I'm proudly presenting my first QML app, and also my first Symbian app ever. It's in alpha stage, so bear in mind, that there might be bugs, crashes etc. I'd be glad if all this stuff was reported to me. :)

So, what is Lightbulb anyway?
It's a free XMPP client based partially on MeegIM (at the beggining, I just thought about porting it, but ended up rewriting and fixing and also breaking almost half of it, lol). Written using Qt and QtQuick, with qxmpp library.

Features and stuff
- sending, receiving messages
- hiding offline contacts
- notifications (vibration, sound, notification led)
- multi account support
- widget
- removing, adding, renaming contacts
- VCard (partially, can read, can't write)
- ... and maybe more, but I can't remember if this stuff works anyway :D

I appreciate any help, suggestions and stuff. It's my first app, I'm not really good with Qt, Symbian API itd. just read a lot of docs and tried to do something, went out better than I expected ^^

Finally, screenshots!


And now - download
Lightbulb 0.3

You're welcome. :) It's good to know that it's actually useful to anyone. It's motivating, a lot. Btw. Lightbulb 0.2.1 is here! I hope I've managed to fix some of the irritating bugs here. Have fun with testing. :)

Changelog:
- unread-count and unread-mark graphics redesigned
- fixed scaling of app's icon in About page
- remade first run wizard, so this time it's actually useful. It'll be extended in the future, of course.
- fixed crashes in archive view
- inverted theme looks beautiful now, not retarded anymore
- attempt to fix roster enumeration lag bug. I hope it did the job this time.
- fixed avatar caching
- improved both Accounts page and Add/Edit account page, so it's actually more intuitive and less buggy
- replaced Info banners with discreet popups
- improved popup notes
- merged QmlClipboardAdapter with QAvkonHelper
- added Maintenance page - allows you to clean the database, VCard/avatar cache and reset settings to defaults
- fixes, cleanups, usual stuff
