New apk available
Just a quick announcement: I've uploaded a new apk with a couple of features/changes. It's supposed to be for testing, but mostly I'm uploading it in case anyone wants to use it (even if, as I always say, it's a terrible idea to trust a random apk from the internet)
All the modifications to the code, as messy as they might be, are also pushed. So you could always build the apk yourself. It might be a bit of a pain in the ass, especially if, like me, this is your first time with flutter (or, even harder if you never fiddled with android)

Hey! I've had deedum on my phone for a long time. I thought I got it on the Play Store but maybe not? I hear you on the random code thing. I released a new client called Alhena but I can't get anyone to try it but my techie relatives. I'm in the process of figuring out what I need to do to open source (licensing, etc). Anyway, thanks for the work. I'll check it out.

hey @bluesman,
I'm not the original author of deedum. I'm using it on an old tablet (only client from f-droid that worked there), and when I saw it had been semi-inactive for years, I simply added some features I wanted.
I'm not going to bang my head against Google to get it on the play store, though, their process is a PITA.
anyway, every now and then I'm uploading an apk with changes, in case it's useful for someone else

hi! what about the ios implementation? would it be possible to keep that too up to date? lagrange for ios is distributed through testflight (no app store hassles for the author, apparently).

I guess it should be possible, and apart from the... tabs screen(I think it was?), I've not seen any specific "iOS" code. I assume Dart/flutter should do the magic. Or so they are selling it.
But, I don't have a Mac, or iPhone or anything, so I won't bother messing with code I can't test.
But... I guess it's doable, if someone wants to do it.

Yeah, I opened my laptop to check and the "Build iOS" menu entry is greyed out. I guess you need to do that with xcode on a Mac.
even the original Readme says "I haven't been able to get iOS building yet because of xcode/macos version restrictions"
Someone worked with the original code to include it on the apple store. Maybe you can contact them and ask if they are still interested in maintaining the iOS build/publish.
