        Hi.

        The Network Scanner app by Michael Zanetti shows here @ https://open-store.io/app/netscan.mzanetti but when I search the OpenStore on my phone - there's no sign of it. My OpenStore app is up to date. What gives? :confused_face:

        Thanks.

        How can you trust that an app really won't send some company your location data, when you tell it not to? The only way you can trust a program not to do something it isn't supposed to do is if it is free software. ~ RMS

            Hi Opolork. Ah yes, "Framework: ubuntu-sdk-15.04.3". Thanks. :hand_with_fingers_splayed_light_skin_tone:

              Does anyone even use Vivid anymore? I wonder if Michael Zanetti has abandoned the app. 🤔

                If memory serves correctly, lots of apps that were running on Vervet got rebased seemingly relatively painlessly, which makes me wonder if it has been abandoned.

                Edit
                I just emailed the developer to ask if he can make it available for use with 16.04.

                    @Opolork I've just had a response from Michael Zanetti... Sadly he hasn't got the time to update the app.

                      That is a pity. Thanks for the update, 3arn0wl. :thumbs_up_light_skin_tone:

                        Hehe That's exactly what I said to him, @Opolork! It's a pity that the work that went into making that app is wasted for want of a rebase . 😞
