I know that there are some advantages to over , but I just can't imagine using a mobile operating system that's so locked down. It's crazy how hard is pushing just to make sideloading as difficult as possible, if not impossible altogether.

OwnDroid
Manage your device with Device owner privilege

OwnDroid lets you use Device admin and Device owner privilege to fully manage your Android device.

  • Open source: Device owner privilege could be more dangerous than root, close-source software's security is not guaranteed.
  • Easy to use
  • Modern: Built with Kotlin and Jetpack Compose, following Material Design 3, and adapted for Android 14.

(and Basic) 1.20 is here! 🥳
https://f-droid.org/packages/org.fdroid.fdroid/
You gotta update manually for now.

You can now select your preferred repository for each app (see screenshot). Thanks to the @fdroidorg team especially @grote for the new release.

Now, can somebody please implement an option to share the link to an installed app instead of directly sharing the full APK? 😬

I got my Pixel tablet today and just got it set up. It's a nice piece of hardware absolutely let down by the not great state of android apps on tablets. I really like the dock tho. Honestly I'm not super concerned about the apps because I don't use tablets for much. The only reason I got this one is because the Google store offered me more money than I paid for my old base model iPad as a trade-in. I mostly just use it for D&D.

Mon téléphone malin n'est pas si malin que ça:
je voudrais que mon clavier détecte rapidement quand je communique en anglais et arrête de me t9-er du français pour m'aider en anglais... vous connaissez un clavier pour qui permette ça ?

La difficulté (? Peut-être) c'est que ce switch de langue n'est en aucun cas lié à une application: je Discord en 2 langues, je SMS en 2 langues, je mail en 2 l... t'as capté.

Je dois pas être seule?
Merci d'avance, bisous

Hey bubble,

my wife needs to work with the instagram app for work (yes, I know, but it is that way). So we installed it in a work profile on her android phone (to keep the data in the normal profile safe from the app). The phone is running perfectly fine.

Unfortunately, she cannot access the pictures on the normal profile from the instagram app. File shuttle is enabled in shelter and works in the files app, but apparently not from the instagram app. At least we find no way to access the files.

Has anyone done this before? Any hints, tips or tricks?
