This Week in F-Droid
TWIF curated on Friday, 19 Jun 2026, Week 25
Community News
Element X - Secure Chat & Call was updated to 26.06.2 and SchildiChat Next to 0.11.4-ex_26_6_2, fixing a security issue, on top of the usual enhancements. Do update asap!
FairScan – PDF Scanner was updated to 2.0.0 and now can create searchable PDFs with text recognition (OCR). For this feature INTERNET permission is required to download optional language files. If you feel that Fairscan has helped you, maybe jump to the developers post on donations and show your generosity.
FiSSH, SSH authentication via Fingerprint scanning over network (TLS Sockets), just got an appid change, as it was archived and the identically named FiSSH was just included. The developer is once again maintaining the app, so if you’ve had the app installed before last week, try to backup, uninstall and install the new app.
Since we’ve mentioned a scanner app above, we have to cover MakeACopy update 4.5.0 too. New camera controls, new translations, text layer fixes, Material You dynamic colors, Material 3 dialogues, workflow stepper across actions, search in scan library, share text, export type selector, and more.
Materializr, Parametric 3D CAD, might not get 10.000 users this week, but it answers a call for this type of apps being available for FLOSS fans. Might you design your next 3D printer ready object today from your Android?
Photok was updated to 3.0.1 fixing an ANR after the big update 3.0.0. How big? A new vault system, HEIC support, more translations, faster thumbnails, better settings screens and more.
@shuvashish76 records future bits:
Audio Recorder was updated to 2.0.2 after almost two years, being rewritten entirely using modern tooling and frameworks. What do you mean “the app looks sameish”? Well if you read the changelog, that was intended, while a developer needs to wrestle with all layers of an app, we the users might experience only a thin shell on top. But the secret sauce is 2-3 layers below, where the dragons be.
Rethink: DNS + Firewall + VPN was updated to v0.5.5w after almost one year. What did we miss? An UI rewrite in Material 3, new configuration options, plenty of fixes, and more. Read this and this to get up to speed.

- WalletCount: A money management app for your wallet
Newly Added Apps
23 more apps were newly added
For some “unknown reason” since about 9 months ago, more previously unfamiliar FLOSS developers started to consider F-Droid a good place to distribute and host their apps. We welcome such a wave of increased interest, and we ask developers to bear with us while we juggle between infra maintenance, client 2.0 development and their submissions.
We thank @linsui for merging all these below and hundreds more during these months.
We also thank contributors taking the time to help with app submissions review, testing builds and offering feedback. For them we’ve setup the “Reviewing new apps” Wiki page to offer step by step guidance of what it takes for an app to be tested before inclusion, and, depending on changes, during updates. Scroll down in comments to find an useful checklist that can keep one organized during a review.
