Status

Now we are introducing Kotlin to the launcher, there are more bugs to be expected. But it will be more fun in general.

If your instance is crashing frequently please make sure you update to the latest version (from Github or F-Droid, not the Play store) and reset the app data before creating an issue. We made a lot of changes that broke compatibility in the older versions.

Currently there are a lot of issues and we are all working on this app in our spare time so please be patient if your issue is not immediately resolved. We are going to review the structure of the launcher since I wrote this app a long time ago so we might break functionality at times. Thanks for your support.

Contributions

The project is always open for contributions and accepts pull requests. You may use Android Studios auto reformat feature before sending a PR.

Translations can be contributed on GitHub. You can use Stringlate (Translate - with Stringlate) to translate the project directly on your Android phone. It allows you to export as E-Mail attachement and to post on GitHub.
