I heard you liked categories, so I added...

TWIF curated on Friday, 22 May 2026, Week 21
F-Droid core
Exploring user feedback for client version 2.0, we heard users articulating the need to easily find apps. One way to improve this is search, and we’ve made great strides there. Another way is with Categories, which were improved three-fold.
First, we’ve expanded the categories list so in just two touches you get closer to a selection of apps resembling your wish, even without searching.
Second, to make the expanded list of new categories more user friendly, we’ve added “meta” categories (work in progress for standardization in the F-Droid ecosystem) in the Discover tab, and these account for the first touch mentioned above.
Third, search uses categories and their descriptions to enhance the results and to guide the user closer to a good FLOSS app.
This week we’ve also destroyed the Games category and re-created it as 17 unique ones, separating games by gameplay type.
Community News
Fennec F-Droid was updated to 151.0.0 adding the long awaited AI control setting to the mobile client. Will you keep it ON or OFF? Short changelog here.
FLARE was updated to 1.15 but the package is missing libraries and assets. Please skip this update, we will fix it in the next version.
Flux News was updated to 2.0.0 becoming an actual podcast player too, with subscriptions, downloads, offline listening, playback speed control, sleep timer, chapter selection and progress synchronization via the Miniflux backend.
GitNex for Forgejo and Gitea was updated to 13.0.1 with a revamped app UI from the ground up to be M3 Expressive. Read the full changelog for the long list of improvements.
Hermes Agent, Run local AI models with chat, files, voice, and Android tools, was just added, but maybe just avoid installing it for now. The app is a fork using an appid that was initially fine but eventually rejected by the original upstream developers. The fork developer is working to re-include the app with a fresh appid (as our docs advise) soon.
MakeACopy was updated to 4.1.1-paddle now being powered by the newly open-sourced PaddleOCR lib.
OONI Probe was updated to 6.0.2, the UI got cleaned up in version 6.0.0 so this one just adds up to the experience. The devs also posted about protecting the public records and how journalists and media organizations use the app around the world.
Orgzly Revived was updated to 1.20.0. Besides the usual fixes, one new feature we missed to highlight since 1.16.0 is the “calendar provider”. Now your notes with SCHEDULED and DEADLINE timestamps appear as calendar events in a new local calendar named “Orgzly”. Entries get updated on every change, calendar color can be customized, you can save search results as a calendar, handle recurring events and link back from calendar notes to Orgzly notes (in Android Settings, Apps, Orgzly, open by default, Add, check entry).
WAFRN was updated to 1.13.5 polishing the way the app is built and used. Another improvement is that the app is now build reproducible signed by the developer. If you’ve installed the app before this week, better uninstall it and install the new version. Tip: Users of F-Droid and Basic client 2.0-alpha will immediately notice this in the MyApps page
Spring Cleaning
While we always plan on doing continuous cleaning of old apps, it takes time for contributors to delve into apps info, gather candidates, have others verify, amend and merge once decided.
Last major cleanup was in September 2024 and we explained then how this process works from our point of view and what users should expect.
The cleanup listed below took into consideration the date of the last update (more than 2 years ago) and the targetsdk of the app (less than 24 aka Android 7). We’ve explained what targetsdk is all about in our Feb 2024 post. Basically, we archived apps that were targeting Android versions older than 10 years, that themselves didn’t see any development for the last 2 years and were no longer installable on Android 15 and later.
If you are using our latest F-Droid or Basic client 2.0-alpha versions you can already see any app that was archived being listed in the Apps with issues section of My Apps screen. Please take some time to either replace the app with one that is still developed, or feel free to long-press and ignore the warning.
Fun fact: 2.0 client requires Android 7 or later too.
