If I remember correctly, one use case for container mode is to use clickable in Ubuntu Touch. I don't think clickable desktop ever worked there. You just launch the app on your device. I haven't explored clickable much but maybe it'll work if you use Qt Creator which I believe runs inside the container.

RE: emergency cell broadcasts need an alarm
It definitely needs a loud sound just like on other systems. Is that even an opt-put thing there?
Actually, I don't think I've ever seen one in UT. It's a good thing it actually works. Hopefully we can figure out how to add the sound.
I thinn for now, it'll better to have an Android/iOS phone as secondary device for important things like this. -
RE: Ubuntu Touch Hardware limitations?
@Blackbomber Perhaps, but what's the point then?
I guess it's really up to you if you're willing. No one's stopping you
Check the devices list and see which device is the closest to yours. For example, Samsung S3 Neo uses Halium 5.1 but it's stuck in Xenial. -
RE: Ubuntu Touch Hardware limitations?
@Blackbomber 1GB of RAM would make the experience not good especially when using multiple apps. But I think the biggest issue is the very old Android version. Older halium is basically left behind to older UT versions. Old kernel would also be a big blocker since Ubuntu requires features that are only on newer kernels.

@lduboeuf Do we have the new contacts backend and syncing in 26.04?

RE: Recommendations for well-architected UT apps to study
Maybe check out the core apps. They're probably the most organized UT app repos. Maybe check Dekko too, I believe it also has or had a snap package.

RE: [Release] HomeSpike v1.0 — a real home screen for Ubuntu Touch (multi-page, dock, drag-to-reorder, three placement modes, true multitasking)
@projectmoon I'm pretty sure no

But it would be nice if this is packaged as Ambot/Jerk package so that it's easy for me to try.Personally I'm not interested with a "proper" home screen but it would be interesting to see which ones can be implemented in the app drawer. I want to see how well the icon positioning works. My solution in Lomiri Plus isn't polished

RE: [Break Your UT] Bigger and better Lomiri and Keyboard???
@domubpkm The app itself would be doable but the packages aren't doable since they ust replace system files so translations can't be processed.
I mean it's doable but it'll take for someone to modify each file manually and create separate packages per language

RE: I wanna go home
@Linus67 Yeah. I think the priority is to improve the app drawer and add features there. That's kind of the "home" in UT. I don't think there's immediate need to do drastic change to have an actual home. The desktop is also empty but I don't think it should also be a priority. Maybe on the desktop use case but not on mobile.

RE: I wanna go home
-
The Launcher/dock already works like that except minimizing by clicking on the foreground app
-
Not exactly sure if I understand this correctly but I think it does work like that already too. Which is actually used very rarely since you can just long swipe
-
This is something that may come in the future or maybe never. I think the higher priority is to improve the features in the app drawer.

I've never seen a phone shell that has a bottom status bar
I don't think that's a good idea and it doesn't really solve anything since the shell still needs to adjust things for the cutout, just on other components or even apps. -
I don't think gestures will ever change that much. It's already set and works well. Personally, bottom gesture should be free for context-based actions instead of being fixed into specific system actions.

RE: How to force a link to open with a selected app?
@nbdynl Not really. This is only for opening an app and not opening a URL.

RE: How to force a link to open with a selected app?
I actually didn't know about this, interesting.
I triee a bit and had success it some apps like the clock app.
I also tried with Morph Qt6 and it worked. This is what I usedappid://morph-browser-qt6.ubports/morph-browser/current-user-version
I'm still unsure what's the format for the second section so maybe that's the key?
Also, maybe it only works with click apps and not deb ones? I also can't make it to work on apps like messaging app. -
RE: PicPocket - Immich client for Ubuntu Touch
@brenno.almeida I don't use Immich but I try this app with the demo server from time to time. Pretty cool and promising. I recently improved zoom and panning in the galler and camera app. It supports double tapping and mouse zoom. You can check it out if you want. And maybe you can also improve it if you something to improve

RE: Touchpad Users/Experts: What gestures and corresponding functions do you want in Lomiri/Ubuntu Touch?
@ChromiumOS-Guy I don't think I've never encountered that gesture and function, interesting. I rarely use middle click though

RE: Keyboard in UT disappears after wayroid is started
You can also restart the keyboard with
systemctl --user restart maliit-server.serviceI've never encountered this issue with Waydroid before. Just a wild guess, can you please check in Settings >> Language & Text and see if there's perhaps an external keyboard detected. I guess you can also see this if the keyboard icon appears in the top bar. I'm thinking maybe Waydroid introduces an external keyboard, for some reason, and onscreen keyboard is disabled when this is the case

RE: Notch Hack won't install
@muskist Try reflashing. Ambot Installer also needs enough space for the packages to installer successfully. I think the notch hack filled up your root when it used apt.

RE: Back on UT after a few months and it feels a lot more polished.
Fairphone 5 is indeed snappy. It also has the most usable camera on UT I've ever used in terms of both image quality and responsiveness.
-
RE: Fairphone "gen" 6 is there !
@No-iOS-Android It's still probably coming but I would guess the enthusiasm isn't high because it lacks the wired display out feature which isn't essential but makes older Fairphone models great targets for UT as a user and as a developer.

RE: Vibe coding or create an app with AI
As long as it works and open source, who cares?

RE: what is UT's stance on forced ID compliance?
I don't think UT needs to do anything about it especially right away. It's not a worldwide thing anyway. In my opinion, there's no need to worry about it.
