thank you for the information, i will try, but I would recommend, that you add some suggestions on the home page (both, about what to do if the playstore does not show the app and on the snapshots, where the text on the home pages i not suggest it for new users. -
thank you - i hope to use it on my phone. it is attractive to have the same system on the desktop and the mobile!

@msfjarvis Is there any way that you could push a new stable release to the play store that can run on Android 13? The security policy on my phone prevents sideloading apps, so I can't just get on the snapshot. In addition, I'm pretty sure the snapshot is unsuitable for my situation anyways, as I use Yubikey for both GPG and SSH. In the past I know this has worked with this app, however from what I can tell this no longer works in the 2.0 snapshots. That's a different issue though, I'd just really like to be able to actually use the app on my phone.

There is not. If I publish a new build to Google Play it will at minimum require removing support for external storage which will break the app completely for users who get automatically updated by Play Store.
