Ubuntu Touch on my M10 tablet is good for me. I use it for a minimum of 2 hours each day. My wife also uses it in preference to our laptop. Morph browser works fine. File Manager is really cool once you discover how to slide files right or left to reveal the hidden tools. System Settings and OpenStore are most reliable. You can roll your own webapps with Clickable or Webapp Creator. You can move files back and forth between your UT device and your Ubuntu laptop with WifiTransfer. Document Viewer and Sturm Reader handle pdfs smoothly.

I could go on. To close, I prefer Ubuntu Touch to Android. I wiped Android from my Nexus 4, installed UT and it's great.

In support of Android, many folk cite the availability of a plethora of apps. How many do you really need? Aren't many of them simply "shovelware"?

Oh, by the way the Community is knowledgeable and helpful.

I'm delighted to report that with help from @advocatux and @bhdouglass, I succeeded in getting my first webapp, NFB Canada, working and uploaded to OpenStore. The process was as follows:

• run webapp-creator and complete template

• run UT Tweak Tool to install .click package on my M10 HD tablet

• test webapp

• join Telegram OpenStore Group

• submit webapp

All this was accomplished on my tablet. The difficulties I experienced were as follows:

• had trouble joining Telegram OpenStore Group. This turned out to be an issue with the UT Telegram app. When I switched to the Telegram webapp everything worked as expected.

• I did try using the UT Tweak Tool to submit my .click package, but was unsuccessfull. This may have been because I hadn't yet joined Telegram OpenStore Group at that stage.

• my first submission to OpenStore was declined as requiring manual inspection. Brian Douglass suggested that I needed to use the default profile since video_files wasn't needed. That fixed the problem.

• each time I needed to edit my webapp-creator template, I had to fill out the whole pro-forma again. However I got better at doing that as I moved further up the learning curve.

In case you are wondering why I chose NFB Canada as my target, let me explain. My first tablet was a Blackberry Playbook. This came with an NFB Canada app installed. I found that it was a wonderful resource. So I thought perhaps some of you UT enthusiasts might also enjoy it.

Many thanks to the UBports Team. OTA-11 runs like silk on my BQ Aquaris M10 tablet! The new text editing feature is an awesome improvement.

Hello, I'm David aged 76, retired and living in Dorset in the UK. I graduated in physics in 1963 and initially worked as a R&D engineer on ferrite core and plated wire computer memory systems. I've been using linux systems for many years, especially Ubuntu and ordered a BQ Aquaris M10 Ubuntu Edition as soon as they went on sale. I subsequently switched to UBports and love it. I use my tablet for about two hours every day and it does most things I want. I really appreciate the UBports community and have gained the confidence to be able to post some questions to the support forum. I'm not a software developer, but I'm keen to try my hand at producing a simple webapp. So far I had some great help from the support forum. I would like to contribute to testing, but as I use 15.04 so much, I'm reluctant to install 16.04 and risk compromising my system. What I really need to do is to aquire another tablet. Oh BTW I speak and read french.

@hummlbach Just visited the link you suggested and was astounded by the by the complexity of the vision for the future of Gallery. It seems very ambitious and may take a great deal of effort to make it work reliably. I'm coming at this from my experience of using the Blackberry Playbook. The user interface is very smart and well thought out. The photo app is folders based which is very convenient for dealing with holiday and other event photos. I only resorted to the use of Albums on Ubuntu Touch as a workaround for the lack of a folders capability. I don't need flikr and face book etc. Maybe a good approach would be two separate apps: a simple photo app à la Blackberry for ordinary folk and a full blown gallery app for power users. This would have the advantage that the simple app could hopefully be realised as a subset of the pro version in the near term and then incrementally enhanced in the longer term.

@erik-kueng The OpenStore word processor app uWriter enables you to store and edit html files. Check it out. I use this app and it works well. This is the app that @advocatux suggested above. Good luck.

I have just installed this new webapp and it's great. I normally access my OpenOffice-365 email account via a Morph Browser bookmark and everything works as it should. Yesterday I tried the OpenOffice-365 Webapp and logged in to my account. It was really snappy and I like it. I tried it on my M10 tablet and my Nexus 4 and it performed well on both devices.
The only snag was a freeze which occurred when I opened the Junk Email folder and selected a message for deletion. This issue was repeatable on both my devices.

Success!!!
I finally solved my problem with the vcf sharing approach. Once again many thanks to all you Ubuntu Touchers for your help and patience. Now to bed!

@pulsar33 Brilliant! Filezilla on my laptop also connects to wifitransfer! What more could I wish for? Many thanks to everyone who contributed to solving my problem.

Do we have any estimate of users by country? I have no idea if I am the only UK user or if there are another 100 scattered about. Do we have the raw data that could be analysed?

Hi, UT devel 494 is running great on my N4. Thanks to all for doing such a good job. Just read the Pinephone UBports Community Edition is now available for pre-order. I need to check the import duty into the UK. Where will it be shipped from? Shenzhen?

@AppLee I've also discovered that the drop down menu on the left only works properly when you are signed in!

@AppLee Great, that worked!
My problem was that I had selected the Support thread prior to setting the topics sequence.
With your explanation, problem resolved!
Many thanks for your support.

@AppLee Many thanks for that. Don't have time to try just now but will get back to it later.

Just touched base with @ellypsis and we agreed that the repetition of the search item in the left side drop down menu must be a website problem.

@dtarrant Maybe this is a ubports forum website problem?
I wonder what @ellypsis thinks?

Whoops, my bad!

I was clicking in the box where the numbers should appear and expecting a cursor to appear. Just discovered that the cursor only appears once you click some numbers. I feel very silly.

My Calculator wasn't broken at all!

Many thanks for your replies

The Calculator app seems to be broken on my BQ M10 devel 493.

I am unable to enter any data.

I have tried re-installing Calculator and clearing cache but this dId not resolve the issue.

I have the same problem with my N4.

Does anyone else have the same problem?

On my BQ M10, it is possible to change the order of Support topics between oldest > newest and newest > oldest.

I can't find a way to do this on my Nexus 4 devel 491 which lists topics oldest > newest.

This is really inconvenient if you want to check recent posts (which is normally the case). Scrolling through everything from 2016 onwards is tedious.

Any suggestions?

@simox I purchased my M10 from BQ with the Ubuntu version pre-installed and it works fine with UBports UT.

I'm sure I've read that if you want to install UBports on an M10 Android version, you must first install the original BQ Ubuntu version which still lurks somewhere on the internet.

Maybe @Flohack could point us to the right link?
