An Android app that loads NextDNS site and then applies NX Enhanced

[hjk789]

It would be a pretty simple Android app that is just a webview that loads the NextDNS site, then includes in the page NX Enhanced's code. Of course, the code would need some adaptations, like instead of using GM.set/get, use localStorage or pass it to an Android interface and save it on Android's app data storage, and also some layout adaptations for mobile. The app's code will be uploaded here too.

Native Alpha exists and it PWAifies websites. Maybe this could work somehow for you?

I could take a look in the code. I can't use this app to create NXE's app because Native Alpha seems to be user-oriented, not a library or framework that can be used to develop other apps. I think there's no way to insert a script in the page from that app. But thanks for the suggestion.

@cylonid might be able to help you.

@hjk789 is right, Native Alpha is more of a PWA bookmark manager, so without modification it's not suited to create a standalone WebView APK for deployment.

This project might be more interesting for your needs.

Awwww. ☹️

Thanks anyway. I'm sure that project might help them out! 👍

I think now that NX Enhanced is an extension instead of a userscript, the need for an app is much lower now.

You should be able to use the add-on with Firefox on Android as well

I think it might be worth reconsidering this app idea. But with two caveats:

1. It would be a paid app. This would be the only sustainable way to continue developing NX Enhanced, otherwise it will need to be discontinued;
2. It would be partly open-source. I may upload here some relevant parts of the app's code, but not the full code, instead, a non-compilable code. This is not to "hide" something, it's simply because it doesn't make sense to distribute compilable code for a paid app, many open-source softwares with paid features/versions do this.
