This Week in F-Droid

TWIF curated on Friday, 03 Oct 2025, Week 40

F-Droid core

Back in August we’ve talked about the core of our infrastructure, the servers CPUs and their age. This issue has two paths to be fixed. One in Google’s court, software side, were we’ve heard progress has been made and we’ve seen some preliminary changes. And another one, the hardware side, that F-Droid must do, we’re still working as fast as we can on getting the new build server machines in place! Funding is there and approved, hardware was spec-ed and we got quotes, hosting arrangements are fixed, deployment plans are laid, the team has set aside time to spring into action. Now we wait and hope there aren’t more ordering/shipping delays due to tariff chaos.

Community News

Fennec F-Droid was updated to 143.0.2, besides the usual security fixes you just love to read about, there’s also DNS over HTTPS, a new downloads UI and maybe better sound. The new top tabs bar was already available since the last version, so no surprise there, right? But did you know the new input field and menu UI are included too? Yes, they’re “secret” for now, yet we’ve signed no NDA, so let’s spill it all. Go to Settings, About, touch the logo 7 times (no joke!), you’ll see the toast pop up, then go back to the now visible Secret settings section and there toggle “Enable composable toolbar” to ON. Done. Pretty please don’t touch the other secret settings!

Gadgetbridge and Bangle.js Gadgetbridge were updated to 0.87.1 and more so, they now are also built reproducible. Each version has two packages, one signed by F-Droid, so current users continue to get updates as expected, and one signed by the developers that new installs will favor.

Nextcloud Notes was updated to 4.5.0, but you should avoid it as multiple users have raised issues with it crashing.

RUTMath, A math learning app for children, was added, which is the revival of the old RUTMath that just got archived. If you did not install the app today, better uninstall the old one and get the new.

Syncthing-Fork v1, Wrapper for Syncthing - Open and decentralized file synchronization, was archived as the new Syncthing-Fork was updated to 2.0.10.0 and goes on. You did not switch yet? Read more in our old post.
