VoiceCat's supported implementation is .NET 10. The managed protocol, crypto, TLS, server,
|
|
|
|
|
CLI, client state, audio engine, Windows client, macOS client, and iOS client are implemented.
|
|
|
|
|
Retired implementations and compatibility projects have been removed; this tree contains only
|
|
|
|
|
the supported product and its required native media boundaries.

The physical-device iOS voice path now supports ReplayKit fallback and stable Apple VPIO
|
|
|
|
|
voice-chat capture using a paced 20 ms handoff. Stereo microphone routing remains an open device
|
|
|
|
|
gate: the stereo preset currently receives duplicated mono samples despite selecting the built-in
|
|
|
|
|
stereo capsule.

|
|
|
- Run real multi-person calls on Windows, macOS, and physical iOS hardware, including adaptive
|
|
|
|
|
20/40/60 ms buffering, duration-aware DRED/FEC, and mismatched input/output endpoints.
|
2026-09-19 22:40:48 +02:00
|
|
|
- Complete NVDA and VoiceOver navigation/announcement passes.
|
|
|
|
|
- Exercise iOS background/lock, interruption, Bluetooth, route-change, ReplayKit, and iOS 27
|
2026-09-21 02:11:33 +02:00
|
|
|
ScreenCaptureKit paths on devices. Verify distinct left/right capture with the stereo microphone
|
|
|
|
|
preset, including changing mono/stereo while joined, and Windows desktop/per-app stereo sharing.
|
2026-09-21 04:05:40 +02:00
|
|
|
- Complete Developer ID signing/notarization. The iOS host and ReplayKit extension have been
|
|
|
|
|
distribution-signed and packaged locally; upload the IPA for Apple's server-side validation.
|
2026-09-19 22:40:48 +02:00
|
|
|
- Run the published Linux container and a 30-minute-or-longer server soak.
