Hi, first of all, thank you for continuing the best calculator app ever!


I suspect that adding NumberHub to F-Droid/IzzyOnDroid will result in more people knowing about the app and downloading it.

Also, adding to Google Play would be a good idea since Unitto was previously available from there.

  • F-Droid

Lol I think we literally had the same thought 8 hours ago. I haven't been notified by GitHub about your issue unfortunately (hence the late answer :/ ) but I prepared some stuff on the Google Play Developer Console earlier to prepare everything to publish NumberHub on Google Play too :D

Regarding F-Droid: I'll also make sure to publish it there as well, but let's prioritize Google Play

Hi, saw that you forked it and added it to Play store, thanks for that. I love this app. Would be cool if you add the app for download to F-Droid soon (No rush though). That's how I first found Unitto. I appreciate that you'll continue developing/maintaining this app.

Please add it to F-Droid!

@IzzySoft perhaps we can get this one added to your repo?

If you'd put up a proper versionName with the next release?

package: name='app.myzel394.numberhub' versionCode='4' versionName='NumberHub'

That should have been 0.1.3. Without that it's hard to match the APK to its corresponding release 😉

Oh, and maybe also fix up Fastlane?

  • title.txt: "Unitto — calculator and unit converter"
  • full_description.txt: uses graphical bullet-points which prevents it from being properly parsed as Markdown
  • while there please check if the screenshots/icon are the correct ones 😉

That said: pick a badge for your Readme if you wish, the app should show up here with the next sync around 6 pm UTC. To ensure proper and timely updates whenever you make a new release, please ensure to fix the above 😉 And now: Welcome aboard IzzyOnDroid 😃

Hey guys,

thanks for adding NumberHub to IzzyOnDroid! I'll also make sure to add it to the official f droid store, but I'm quite busy at the moment unfortunately.

I'll push a fix for the versionName and the title!

Getting your app to IzzyOnDroid took 5 hours. Getting it to F-Droid will probably rather take 5+ weeks… So no worries with the timing there.

I'll push a fix for the versionName and the title!

Thanks! And don't forget the badge for the Readme 😉

Hey, just saw NumberHub (which I was already using) show up in my F-Droid client (IzzyOnDroid repo), nice job!

And yeah, the version always had me confused, listed by Android as NumberHub, by App Manager and in the About screen of the app as NumberHub (5) and in GitHub releases as v0.1.3 😅

F-droid is great but it takes several days for them push updates to existing apps let alone process new apps.

IzzyOnDroid however is very fast to get new releases out.

F-droid has 4456 apps where Izzy has 1156 apps. It's not that much after all many F-droid releases are also several years old.

F-droid apps could be better at presenting and linking information regarding apps and devs.

Some devs stop adding apps to F-droid instead focus on GPlay. 😌

F-droid is so reluctant to new ways that it might not best for F-droid.

The FOSS community could do much with a new app store and new main repo that are and continue to be exiting. F-droid repo there added too.

D-FOSS? I-Droid? I-FOSS? IzFOSS!

😄⚡👏🔥

Btw, some issues with your Fastlane there:

  • short_description.txt is limited to 80 chars, looks like yours has 82 (summing up to 90+ bytes, but that's not relevant here). Maybe remove the "fancy Unicode icons" from it?
  • full_description.txt: if you'd replace the graphical dots () by asterisks (*), it would actually render fine as Markdown at IzzyOnDroid (while looking practically the same elsewhere). Though for Markdown it would also need additional empty lines after what currently is lines 18 and 21 (else 18+19 and 21+22 would render as one paragraph). F-Droid will convert each line break to <br>, so you probably already noticed results look a little weird. If you want, I can give you what I've set up at IzzyOnDroid for your app; that would render the same for F-Droid (but probably not work for Playstore, have not tested it there)

@Myzel394 maybe you've missed my ping ^^ – but the IoD quality checker just reported the same again this month… Any chance?
