        given the security of both systems I guessed there would be a big overlap but searching the forum didn't work.
        Loads of dockers (guessing docker is way to go rather than snap or Waydroid).

        think pixel 3a XL has 64bit ARM so need to exclude all X86 and 32bit only images. Then I thought; 'why not ask which is good?'

          Apart from 'what is Meshtastic?' which I can look up*, this sentence raises the question: which 'both systems' are you talking about?

          Maybe it will help if you tell us what your end goal is, rather than how you hope to achieve it, and if it's possible at all people will probably be able to tell you how.

            @Moem by putting Meshtastic in the title I thought it would only get clicked on by people who know what meshtastic is.

            Meshtastic, which is opensource, allows encrypted long distance text communication without using the text message interface built in to Android or Apple iOS because the messages travel over LoRa (long range) radio connections with the main weakness that apple and google operating software can see the messages in the apps.

            Looking on the docker hub there are loads of docker images. Aswell as iOS and android apps any Chromium based browser can access the devices and I expect that is how they access the devices. I could not find any Snaps but there is an APK. So the question is does anyone know which docker image (if any) to use. I was hoping someone could save me from loading each docker in turn and seeing if it works.

              @E2024 Some interest was expressed for Meshtastic in the BreakYourIT group on Telegram. But that did not result in any concrete results. So it seems you'd be the first to actually try. Though I doubt it would be as simple as running the software in a Docker container.

                Well, sorry, I'll leave you to it then.
