WeChat is indeed different from Weixin. But according to multiple
sources[a] they use the same package and switch versions on login
depending on your registered phone number. And WeChat on the US Apple
App Store has no problem logging in and using a Chinese "Weixin" account.

Hello,
First, there's no need to shorten our names. It's not something like a
prohibited word.
aur/wechat was wechat-uos-bwrap and wechat-uos-qt respectively before.
They are merged into wechat on that very day because I'm busy doing
other stuff before that and rushing will probably result i
Hi,Recently after the merge of wechat-bin, numerous hostile actions has been taken by some users. I’d request some actions taken against them. The users are listed as follows:etoyz: Hostile and bad language in AUR comment[a] intentionally misleading other users to disregard the fact that dependenci
Hi all,
I'm Kimiblock, requesting AUR moderators to take action against packager
7Ji and 2 packages: wechat-universal-bwrap and wechat-beta-bwrap.
Despite the fact that we already discussed[a][b]: wechat-universal-bwrap

Hi,
It has been more than a month since this thread was active, and this
thread is approaching 3 months old. I'm writing this to request an
update about this duplicated package situation.
I hope those 2 requests[a][b] are dealt with sooner than later. Arch

Hi,
Thanks you for spending time to investigate. While it is true both versions
exist, it is the wechat-uos old package which is still on their store.
wechat-universal-bwrap is still a duplicate because of the same source

Hi,
Seems that replying on an iPhone's built-in Mail app will mess

Hi Aᴀʀᴏɴ,
The duplicated package has 55 votes, while the original version wechat-uos-qt
has 19.
I’m not losing patience though, just a little curious about why this thread
appeared inactive. I guess PMs have been flooded with requests recently…

Hi,
Sorry to make a bump here, but it has been more than a month since this
thread gone quiet, and PM's are not really responding to these 2
requests regarding wechat-universal-bwrap and wechat-beta-bwrap. I
understand the fact that requests are really flooding recently, but
this has to be so
I agree the fact that this so-called universal WeChat is not entirely exclusive
to UOS, but this specific version borrowed from UOS needs a library called
libuosdevicea to properly login into a WeChat account. Otherwise, it will just
show the login failed prompt. Due to the proprietary code, we
Hi,
I've introduced a split package `wechat-uos-qt` whose pkgbase is
`wechat-uos-bwrap`. The old `wechat-uos-bwrap` pkgname will be removed
after a certain amount of time to ensure users will have a smooth
upgrade to `wechat-uos-qt`.
Package contents are slowly being transferred to the new s
Hi all,
I've felt that it's necessary to summarize up my thoughts towards this
messy WeChat situation on the AUR.
Above all, the "wechat-uos-bwrap" is the first package containing the
new (and originally leaked on a BBS...) so called "Universal" version
on the AUR. And there a clearly eviden
Hi Aᴀʀᴏɴ,
If you test the old wechat-uos package in a sandbox (assuming you have
a WeChat account), you'll realize that the old version is lacking a
good amount of functions such as chat history saving and VoIP. UOS
called the new "Universal" WeChat an "Reconstruct and Upgrade"

Hi 7Ji,
Firstly, may I ask what's the difference between the universal version
`wechat` and `weixin`? If its just a newer version of WeChat, then it
should remain the wechat-uos package name or prefix. People from the
#archlinux-cn group and I tested and realized that WeChat cannot run or
