Hey everyone, I’m going insane due to a lack of creative project. I’ve written an app already but I haven’t gotten around to publishing it yet. I’d like to know what kind of apps you’d like to see created for mobile Linux. I prefer easier, bite-sized projects over particularly large ones, but I’d love to hear your ideas nevertheless.

    A good mobile friendly GTK nextcloud talk app. I love nextcloud and I love my pinephone but having to use the browser is a massive pain.

    Here’s a very niche problem: On Android, I use an alarm clock that you can only turn off by scanning a QR code. Such an app doesn’t exist on mobile linux.

    @Lofenyy not so much apps but infrastructure pieces.
    - Better video camera support would be great (Dino would be awesome on Linux phone!).
    - A bit more integration with UnifiedPush. I’m looking at Firefox, Thunderbird and chat apps.
    - More streamlined solution for map navigation - it’s janky atm.
    - OSKs (on-screen keyboard) can be temperamental. Lets see when we will get text-input protocol v4 for Wayland 😄

      IMHO we are a long way off from that being a good idea even if the app existed. I may make jokes about it but I would be terrified if my brother switched to a linux phone with his diabetes. There are just to many other issues ATM.
