More or less: seems like there are some things that don't work? Just curious 🙂 I don't have any devices anymore but happy to accept patches

I start the daemon manually when I need it.

I'm also still waiting for the Harbour review 😕

I'm not a KDE person, and I I'm not really printing all that much, but those are cool as well! ShakeTorch sounds great, but I don't have a camera driver, and thus no flash haha 😄

I've always found the public facing information a bit difficult to find, so I hope that maybe this will make things easier to discover by the time the Jolla Phone is there!

A very good preparation for delivery of the new Jolla phone (batch 3 🥳

That's a daily indeed. Haven't needed GPSInfo on the 10IV, which is great I guess!

My piano is digital already, so no real need for tuning. Cool app though!

Nothing major I guess... I use SailOTP for one time password generation, GPSInfo to wake up my GPS in case I want to use location in Android apps, and some really basic apps like Messages, Notes and Calculator. Oh, and SailTuner for tuning musical instruments!

The regional transport apps are really underrated. BeRail by @dylanvanassche still works more or less, although he's been on PMOS for years now!

Rockpool was handy as i was still rocking my Pebble but it actually broke this week

Any apps you use that I did not mention?

Thanks for the writeup and all the app tips! I've also used Sailfish as my main phone OS for over ten years (and N9 before that). I use much fewer apps than you do and learned a lot from your post. The Firefox news sounds great!
