Hi,

FWIW, here's a list of apps that I'd like to see:

Get-notes suits me perfectly on the desktop - I use it all the time. It would be nice if someone would bolt on a keyboard so that we could use it on the phone.

Being concerned about privacy I like to use the Tor network - It would be good if the Browser could be used through Tor. The Tor Messenger app is good too.

I'd like to be able to use qTox on the phone as it's P2P, encrypted, and does (video) calls, messages and file transfers.

I hope the people behind Crazy Mark continue to develop it, because a decent markdown editor would be useful. And a simple database like Symphytum would be great too.

In the fullness of time, it would also be good to see things like Stellarium and Cuttlefish. And maybe, when the OS gets some momentum, the people behind apps like Aurasma and Explain Everything will build their apps for it.

And as a musician, I'd need MuseScore before I could make a converging device my only bit of kit.

@3arn0wl Re-Stellarium look at Réaltaí
Personally I would like the opposite, not what is above you but what is below you like https://rockd.org/

I have not heard of qTox before, but in the last few days I have heard of it twice, so think it may be worth a look.

While we are all waiting for Tor browser you could look at using a vpn. This would gibe you some level of security for now.

@halucigenia Thanks for the tips. Rockd looks very interesting.

I'll have to look into that. Thanks @UKPhil.

Stellarium is now available.
Strange thing is that when I got my phone out of my pocket this morning it was sitting there in openstore on the page for the app just waiting for it to be installed, I really don't know how that could have happened?

Stellarium is now available.

I know! Great isn't it!?!?! I downloaded it the moment I heard it from @UniSuperBox.

Edit:
Jotit is very much like Get-notes and it's fantastic to be able to use it on the laptop and the phone too.

I've given up on Tox... Matrix seems to be good, and there's a hive of development going on there. I really like Fluffychat.

There was some talk about a system-wide Tor network button... I think that would be a fantastic thing. I guess it's a fairly low-priority though.

And I still hope for an easy-to-use database app - the equivalent of Tap Forms on iOS.
