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.
Banking apps
There’s Saldo: https://flathub.org/apps/org.tabos.saldo
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.
that is indeed niche… what time do you need to be up to resort to this, and what time do you go to sleep?
@tetris11 I usually go to bed at 11-12 and get up around 8-9. It’s just that my subconscious mind has learnt how to turn off the alarm before I even know I’m awake.
I used to oversleep without ever remembering that I turned off the alarm.
I fixed this issue, but being an arsehole for a month.
Get a loud stereo with an alarm clock function; have it go off 1 minute after your alarm, and be really really loud.
Trust me, shocking yourself awake with a huge noise just after the little beep-beep works a treat. After a week or two, you will bolt out of bed to catch the stereo before it wakes everybody else up and pisses them off.
Flare, the gtk Signal app, needs to get to near feature parity with the mobile app. When it does, I’m all in!
What phones or such are y’all using for such a positive experience?
Had pinephone at the start of last year and it was most miserable time I had with a phone in years.Sailfish OS supports Sony Xperia 10s… you get a headphone jack & a microSD
Yeah, because it’s a Pinephone. It’s an underpowered set top box SoC from around a decade ago. Definitely try something else. :)
A mobile first Lemmy app?
Voyager works well for me
