Find devices on your own Wi-Fi and send to them without typing a code, keep a record of what you've transferred, and stay reachable while the app is in the background. This release folds in everything from the 0.6.9 pre-release.
Highlights
Nearby - local discovery (#190, #287)
DashBeam finds other devices on your Wi-Fi/LAN over mDNS. Confirm with a short fingerprint, then send files or pair without typing a code. Once paired, you stay connected even after you leave that network. Control who can see you under Settings → Network (Everyone / Paired only / Off).
Transfer history (#296)
A record of what you've sent and received.
QR codes (#252)
Show a QR when sending, and open a QR for receive links, so the other device can scan instead of copying text.
Notifications
Desktop and Android notify you for pair requests and file invites. Banners stay quiet while the app is in the foreground. Turn them off in Settings.
Tray and background presence (#286)
Close to the tray, start at login, and see which paired devices are online from the menu bar (macOS) or system tray (Windows). Android runs a background presence service so it stays reachable with the app closed. Flatpak uses the desktop background portal for autostart.
Pairing polish
Verification codes appear in pairing dialogs, unpairing recovers if a Forget notification was missed, you're offered start-at-login after pairing your first device, and removing a device now shows progress instead of appearing to hang.
Fixes
- Long-standing PC↔Android send failures and mid-transfer "peer went offline" drops (#240, #274)
- Paired control connections timing out after ~30s, and concurrent sessions marking a live peer Offline (#279)
- Nearby: accepting an invite no longer unpairs both devices; declined requests, device names, and mDNS rediscovery are handled correctly
- Android: exports land in Download/DashBeam and open from the app
