Re: "Lagrange v1.20 mobile betas"
Ah, that could actually be a regression. I upgraded SDL to a much more recent version, and it's very possible it has changed the back button behavior. I'll take a look.

So I deleted the old F-Droid repo and used the URL provided for a new 9ne, but it says there are no apps in it

Maybe try the QR code? At least that works for me.
The Back key handling is certainly a regression. I'll fix that in the next build.
Unable to scroll the page once the on-screen keyboard is up.
1.18(B38) on my tablet allows scrolling.
This makes gaming more tedious

@skyjake : thanks. It's not a show-stopper, though.

@stack Based on my testing, scrolling of the document is not possible when an input query is open. However, when the navbar URL is focused and the keyboard is visible, you can scroll just fine.
This inability to scroll under the input prompt seems to the same behavior on all platforms. I don't think it has changed recently, but it might be worthwhile to enable scrolling over the document area.
I will check again. but I know that I used to scroll with the key board visible to adjust the position of spellbinding and wordo...
New version allows resizing with two fingers but not scrolling.
OK, I am absolutely able to scroll on my tablet, and have gotten used to it to adjust games in the background.
Using LAGRANGE 1.18 (B38) 2025-08-13, on a Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite, Android 14 (One UI 6.1).
Is there a way to get the older APKs until this is fixed? Playing games on the new version is definitely less pleasant.
To be fair, the desktop Lagrange is also unpleasant in how it blocks the game with the input field which is not moveable. The android used to provide the best experience.

Ok I see. I'll probably fix this so the behavior is consistent on all platforms, allowing the scrolling.
I put that old APK here:
— https://etc.skyjake.fi/lagrange/lagrange_v1.18b38_phone.apk
That is wonderful! Thanks.
I also noticed that when the input prompt comes up, the option to paste the preceding line (which was a stroke of genius, btw) -- comes up as the _second_ option. My muscle memory makes me go to the first option (which is now Paste Prompt), and I wind up with the prompt, scratching my head as the prompt is something I´ve never had to copy into the input AFAIK.
As user experience goes, Paste Preceding Line is something I do a lot. Occasionally I use snippets. Prompt -- never. Maybe your usage differs?

Good point. Personally I always use the keyboard shortcut for Paste Preceding Line, so I wasn't thinking of the order. I'll swap those around.

@stack I've fixed the scrolling. I'll try to do a new beta build tomorrow (depending on how my background audio streaming implementation is coming along...).
Fantastic!
Did not mean to pester, take the time you need. I will survive for a bit.
yes, very sad.
now i guess only alhena supports my spartan radio and my gemini page with recordings of my sets. also ben's podcast.
and the user needs to know how to configure alhena for that i guess.
lagrange mobile was playing back both my live radio and recording files, if not sent to background. and it was necessary to make the screen not blankable by timeout.
what is the limitation? os libraries?
oh yeah alhena is not mobile, or to be precise is not for android or ios.
i think it has mabile linux builds.
as well as lagrange has moxile ldnux builds and i guess streaming thene is unaffected just like on desktop.
