I bought an #Android 4.3 tablet (#Alcatel onetouch, 18 £). Sure it is outdated but is sufficient. I found several great apps via #fdroid and transferred them via Bluetooth (saved as txt) from my current phone to the old tablet (tablet certificate expired, need to update this). Is there any resource to find more apps in the meantime? I looked at #izzyondroid a bit.

@IzzyOnDroid do you have be chance a filter for the minimum Android version I missed in the web interface?

If you feel that #FDroid downloads are slow, just press ❎ to cancel the download then press Install/Update again so it picks up some other mirror.

There's no unified "F-Droid server" but several and a dozen or more mirrors.

Each time you try again it will use a different one. Hopefully the next one will have better bandwidth.

/PS: We've seen the reports, we will look into it.


#Catima 2.37.0 is out!

This release features a redesigned logo, kindly contributed by il-Luca (github.com/il-Luca) and Aeven-Dev (github.com/aeven-dev).

The redesign was kept very close to the original design from TangentFoxy (github.com/TangentFoxy), to try to not affect people's ability to recognize the app in their app drawer.

Coming soon to an app store near you.

I'm seeing a lot of people are confused about my frustration with #FDroid's #ReproducibleBuild system, so let me explain:

Sometimes, F-Droid compares their build result with the developer's, meaning both parties (F-Droid and the app dev) agree on the expected result. Other times, they just build their own APK a second time in the same environment, never checking if the developer got the same result.

Both these cases are labeled "Reproducible Build", despite the huge differences.

#Catima 2.36.0 is out!

In this release we added a card list widget, one of the most requested features since the project was started!

We hope to extend the widget in the future to allow you to choose which cards you want to show and how you want them sorted.

Coming soon to an app store near you!

@olikilo Funny, I gave a presentation about mobile privacy at work this year ;)

I think realistically, hiding completely is impossible. However, you can regain a lot more privacy by using private Open Source Android apps from #IzzyOnDroid and #FDroid instead of closed source apps filled with trackers. I personally recommend using Droid-ify as it is simple and preconfigures both IzzyOnDroid and F-Droid: apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/a….

#Conversations_im 2.19.0 is available on #FDroid and Google Play. Please upgrade!

2.19.1 is in the pipeline with some minor bug fixes.

The next version will also show the 'Last Seen' timestamp a little more prominently for those who have Last Seen enabled. (and the underlying algorithm has been modified)

Do you think we should use the subtitle to show number of participants in public conferences now that we made subtitles a part of the UI anyway?



Our merge request to #fdroid got merged. This means that #MapComplete will soon be available on FDroid! 🥳


100K. One hundred thousand. That's a lot of #Catima users! And happy users, it seems, looking at that 4.5 star rating ❤️

Just, wow, I never expected my little hobby app to reach 100K active users, and that's just on #GooglePlay, still excluding other app stores like #IzzyOnDroid, #FDroid, direct downloads from #GitHub and sketchy app piracy sites (please don't use that last one, for your own safety 😅)!

Very cool :)

I just updated the list of weather stations used by #TinyWeatherForecastGermany , and it turns out my app now supports 6291 locations worldwide.

Time to update the advertising claim from "over 5000 locations worldwide" to > 6000 👍

#TinyWeatherForecastGermany delivers you a weather forecast on #android devices based on #opendata from the Germany's National Meteorological Service, @DeutscherWetterdienst .

It is a #floss app without any trackers.

It also includes weather warnings and a pollen forecast amongst other features.

You can get it at #IzzySoftRepo apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/ or at #fdroid .

High time to announce my newest project: #PublicArtExplorer

Check it out and let me know what you think.

Already available here: apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/a… and there play.google.com/store/apps/det….
And soon on #fdroid too. #IzzyOnDroid, #art. #OpenStreetMap, #osm


#Catima 2.35.1 is out! This is a very boring release, just containing some dependency and translation updates. It also adds 1 new community-contributed language: Persian.

If your favourite language is not (completely) supported, consider contributing on hosted.weblate.org/projects/ca… (no AI or "Google Translate" translations please, nobody is helped by low-quality translations filled with errors).

Coming soon to an app store near you.

Hi @kasnder,
As part of the targeted user group I'd like to experiment a bit with #GreaseMilkyway :mastoinnocent:

Fortunately I'm not addicted to one the apps listed in the examples.
On the project page you mention Developer Assistant from the PlayStore as one potential tool to identify the elements one wants to block. Do you happen to know a comparable #FOSS tool from an #FDroid #Repo I could use instead?

#Catima 2.35.0 is out!

This release lets you further tweak the barcode size in the fullscreen view and slightly improves barcode finding reliability when scanning or loading a barcode from an image or PDF file. It also fixes a crash when trying to load a pkpass file without a barcode in it.

Wer #Nextcloud unter #Android über den #GooglePlay installiert hat kann nur noch Fotos und Videos hochladen, Dokumente funktionieren nicht mehr. Hintergrund ist, dass #Google wegen "Sicherheitsbedenken" den Zugriff für die App entfernt hat. Wer andere Appstores wie #FDroid nutzt ist nicht betroffen.

#Catima 2.34.5 is out!

This is a maintenance release that targets Android 15 and fixes a crash.

The app will look slightly uglier on some devices, due to Google's changes in how drawing over the system and navigation bar works. Sadly, supporting proper edge-to-edge requires extensive rewrites (help very welcome!), so I opted to at least ensure we target Android 15 before any deadlines.

Coming soon to an app store near you.
