Hans, I tried this and it's pretty cool! Got stuck on the part about "adding the Courier Repo".
After installing the F-Droid app, one needs to visit the overflow menu, then tap "Repositories". This will display a list of available repositories, two of which are "Guardian Official" and "Guardian Archive". I turned "GP Official" on, then tapped the re-sync icon, which displayed some nice toasts telling me what was happening (love that!). But when I returned to the main screen (which was displaying the "available" tab), nothing showed up. Two suggestions: 1. I see that the updates table shows a number next to it, perhaps the number of available updates to apps that are already installed? I'd like to see a similar value next to the number of apps installed (that is, next to the "installed" tab keyword). 2. Rather than displaying nothing in the "available" tab, perhaps the icons for installed apps could be displayed at half-intensity with a message "up to date". Additionally, I like all the detail shown for apps, but I'm not sure the license-type is necessary on the "installed" screen (it should be on the "available" screen, where is where you'd make your choice about installing an app of your liking). Can we substitute, for example, the amount of storage an app is consuming on the "installed" page? Much more useful. Looks great! David M.
