Wish list : which apps do you need?

I don't believe that's the possible kind thing.
It apparently is on some devices, which have the hardware to schedule a "power on" time or such.
-
@dobey
So those devices are not completly switched off, no?
I mean, if the device can "wake up" and clock ring when setted by user, something, hardware + software, must still run on background? -
@Keneda The SoC is powered off. There is a separate RTC which is extremely low power, and can signal the SoC to power on and which results in phone restoring to power on and the alarm notification, if I understand correctly.
This is why some phones will drain battery faster than those without the feature, when powered off.

Xournal would be good to have... though it could do with a handwriting to text function.
And a speech recognition app. Dragon Dictation is the proprietary one, but I'm sure there must be OpenSource equivalents.

A usable (read & write) office suite which would be .odt & .docx compatible. Maybe a fork of Collabora Office would be a realistic solution?

If God has a computer, it must be a GNU/Linux -
I would like an *fm tuner app that operates the fm tuner in my phone
*an equalizer for the music player
*the ability for the music player to read replaygain tags -
Please forgive my ignorance on this one....
How hard would it be for The Document Foundation to make an Office Suite for Ubuntu Touch app? (not referring to Libertine here)
Making a fork of Collabora Office like @stanwood suggested would take time too, while LibreOffice is a near perfect existing solution already, widely spread and well maintained. Wouldn't it make sense to team up or have a UT community effort to raise the funds necessary to have The Document Foundation create a UT version based on existing Ubuntu one? Especially now there should be extra interest from their side now that the number of Linux devices/phones with Ubuntu Touch is rapidly increasing. If necessary a LibreOffice 'Lite' version may me good enough for on the go. Having a Ubuntu Touch LibreOffice app can have a lot of positive side effects as well.
I know it all comes down to staff available. Yet a guesstimated time on altering and maintaining a LibreOffice for UT would do to satisfy my curiosity.
In general I'd love to see the possibility to have the same core apps on both Ubuntu Desktop and Ubuntu Touch. Ultimately synchronizing both like other OS's would be ideal.

Or maybe wait for document viewer, based on libreoffice, to be made write capable?

I didn't say that, but i believe this is better to start from there, than from scratch.
Splitting effort in multiple apps is not good in my point of view.
Document viewer works great. -
@Keneda
You had me thrilled for a moment......If we could have a text editor in Document Viewer capable of opening/editing/saving commonly used text/tables/presentations that would be great!

That would be a good start yes ^^
Sorry for the thrill...

Regardless, it's my firm believe that adopting LibreOffice in the OpenStore will have huge benefits with regard to market positioning Ubuntu Touch and lower the treshhold for potential users and developers, offering another 'mainstream' option and core app by default.

@Rebecca58 I like to see libreoffice on my pinetab. I tried to install it in libertine but it does not work somehow
-
I'd love to see a better Signal App, Redshift, something similar to andOTP, similar app to KeePassDX, something similar to GoodReads and a native Bible app.
I know most of my suggestions have already been stated, but I wanted to re-enforce the ideas. -

What is wrong with Authenticator NG?

Indeed, X11 apps will not work on Pine devices currently.
-
I would like to have Gajim in UT.
-
@3T_Ed I would second that. Specifically with pinetab now shipping. Pinetab with the keyboard definitely could become a light-weight laptop replacement and as such an office-suite becomes something like an essential app.
