[Improvement] Add full description to F-Droid #126

Closed Aga-C closed 3 years ago

Aga-C commented 3 years ago

Hi,

It would be good to add the same app description as there is in Google Play to F-Droid. The one in Play Store describes the app very nicely, but the one on F-Droid is too short and doesn't show the possibilities of the app. Could you give the same description to F-Droid?

BTW. Would it be possible for you to add those descriptions to the repository, so it would be possible to translate them to other languages?

Thanks!

I am not publishing to F-Droid and have no access to description there.

App description in Google Play is basically a shorter version of README in the repo, so I am not sure what's there to add.

F-Droid automatically imports descriptions and screenshots from a repository if it's in the structure fastlane uses: https://f-droid.org/en/docs/All_About_Descriptions_Graphics_and_Screenshots/#fastlane-structure.

I learned about Aard from F-Droid even before Aard2, and use it regularly from there. You can see it's current description here. I appreciate its continued maintenance greatly.

@itkach I know that description on F-Droid is basically the shorter version of the Readme, but the one on Google Play provides a better description of what the app does, so it makes a better advertisement for it (I myself got interested in Aard2 thanks to it, but prefer downloading from F-Droid). If it would be possible to add a description to the repo as @UnderSampled described, it would be really nice.
