New #Android version of #KDEConnect coming soon, with #Accessibility improvements thanks to a review performed by the HAN University of Applied Sciences!
Looks like they have some free resources available for developers to up their #a11y game:

I wonder how accessible all those closed-source KDE Connect knock-offs are 🤔

Unfortunately #KDEConnect & friends don't have a great power-saving story, yet.
This would be a neat idea for an #Outreachy or #GSoC applicant, since it would require some creative thinking.
Part of the problem here, is that the power consumption and wake-ups are *usually* caused by the remote device, not the local one. For example, a remote device sending MPRIS track switch + album art update every ~3 minutes.
I'm still wondering whether I should install KDE Connect or not. On the one hand, great smartphone integration on the computer, on the other hand: do I really need it? Longer battery life is more important to me, and for the few times I want to transfer photos to the computer, I can also connect the USB cable.
