• Setup Logs are now included in the support package.
• The minimum size of application windows has been set to 1024px * 576px to ensure the usability of elements like favorites and function keys.

• For the Call Action URL, the executable is automatically placed in quotation marks.
• All client support logs are now written to the ProgramData\STARFACE GmbH folder.
• The width of the input field for global search is fixed.
• It is possible to enter a character frequency into the DTMF field.
• In the Call Manager, the full name is displayed in the tooltip.

Bugfixes

• Optimization of the client's memory consumption in standard configuration to address excessive memory requirements.
• When signing in with the same login ID on two computers at the same time, the first signed-in client is now correctly logged out and the login window is displayed.
• The app now correctly displays the login window when a user with an active softphone and gray status indicator logs out after a network interruption.
• The iQueue widget is now reliably displayed with all content after a restart.
• When closing the client from the compact view, confirmation is now correctly requested only once.
• A problem was fixed that incorrectly displayed incoming calls with contact names containing the "&" symbol through TAPI.
• An incoming voicemail no longer generates three separate notifications.
• Fixing an error where no tooltip is displayed when hovering over the first VIP if they are in a call.
• The integration of Jabra headsets has been improved to ensure that ringtones start and stop correctly and calls can be reliably accepted or ended via headset buttons.
• The integration of Yealink headsets has been optimized to avoid conflicts with ESET antivirus and ensure smooth operation of headset buttons and the device's integrated ringtone.
• Links with umlauts in chat are now correctly opened.
• It is ensured that custom workspaces are preserved, even if the user logs out, closes the login screen, and then logs in again.
• It is now possible to directly connect two held calls with each other.
• The function for creating support packages has been improved to ensure that audio recordings made with the TraceLocalAudio function are correctly saved and included in the support package.
• Correct opening in window mode works, even if it was previously closed in dock mode and the "Minimize to tray" option is disabled.

• The problem where the client crashed when starting a TeamViewer session during an active call has been resolved.
• The issue where the client took a very long time to reconnect or failed to do so altogether after a network change (LAN to WLAN) has been fixed, so that reconnection now happens much faster (within about 10 seconds).
• The Windows default communication device is now correctly selected.
