Add screenshots to F-Droid listing

Open Bubu opened this issue 6 years ago • 5 comments

F-Droid will soon have stricter requirements for being featured in the "Latest" tab in the app: https://news.f-droid.org/posts/2019-03-26-the-latest-tab-now-highlights-good-descriptions/

I think NC app is mostly missing screenshots from this list.

GitMate.io thinks possibly related issues are https://github.com/nextcloud/android/issues/27 (F-Droid), https://github.com/nextcloud/android/issues/10 (Add f-droid releases), https://github.com/nextcloud/android/issues/1057 (F-Droid version is Outdated), https://github.com/nextcloud/android/issues/104 (f-droid doesn't pick up latest stable), and https://github.com/nextcloud/android/issues/2469 (F-Droid store icons are not consistent).

Pinging @tobiasKaminsky about this while @Bubu the issue here is about f-droid and multi-language support... our build job auto generates all the screenshots and does that in various languages which leads to many images which has been denied by f-droid due to the storage need for such a thing :/

So how could we handle this in a way working for both parties?

What about committing them to your repo here? Or are you concerned about the size overhead as well?

(of course as a workaround just adding the feature graphics would be enough for now)

Yeah, that is the main reason. Also no dev needs them in daily use, so they should not be in the main repo.

I'll create a MR to get our feature graphic and some screenshots into it.

Thank you for pointing out!
