Update Android Tutorial #51

Closed SaltyAimbOtter closed 8 months ago

SaltyAimbOtter commented 9 months ago

Thank you for your work on this project!

While following the installation guide for Android, I noticed that the suggested app is no longer available in the Google Player Store. On GitHub it is marked as "archived" as of Jul 11, 2023.

Therefore I suggest updating the installation tutorial to the upstream project of Open Sync, DAVx⁵. The tutorial could either suggest using the PlayStore version (which costs money) or downloading the latest release for free from GitHub.

@SaltyAimbOtter are you willing to contribute an updated installation guide?

haumacher commented 9 months ago

The easiest was would be to write a new guide e.g. on https://medium.com and I could then link this article instead of the built-in setup guide. However, filing a PR is also welcome.

On Facebook, a user also suggested to install DAVx from f-droid.org, where it is free - but adding the alternative store is also somewhat inconvenient: https://f-droid.org/de/packages/at.bitfire.davdroid/

SaltyAimbOtter commented 9 months ago

Installing f-droid is just an extra step - users will have to install from an APK anyways if they want it for free. So it does not really make much sense to force them to install F-Droid.

I will open a PR.

An alternative app to the open sync app would be PeopleSync CardDAV Client

I tested it successfully. see discussion #59

Thank you for the comment, it seems that this would be a better option since it is in the Play Store! It is technically also DAVx⁵ according to https://github.com/messageconcept/PeopleSyncClient and therefore GPLv3. Would you like to open the PR instead, since you already made all the screenshots anyways?

Yes, I do that when I find the time for it.

Great, you can find the pages in src/main/webapp/setup-android.
