Blaze v2.1.0 ⚡
This update to Blaze brings a bunch of features and improvements thanks to Hacktoberfest 2020 🎉
Introducing Instant Rooms ✨
Rooms are a fundamental concept of Blaze that enables a group of users to share files with each other. Since Blaze allowed user-named rooms, there were situations when unexpected users joined a room just by guessing the name. Instant Rooms reduce these collisions by generating a unique room name which is random yet memorizable. These rooms are guaranteed to
be empty while creation.
Share room link section
A new section to copy/share room link has been added to encourage the user to share the room link with other devices when the room has less than 2 peers necessary for sharing files.
