#FDroid Basic 2.0-alpha6 is live, so make sure you take it for a spin and shake it really good.
We polished a lot of features: translations and RTL fixes, faster apps processing, better categories, fix CJK search, add monochrome icon, fixed mascot icon (no more cut antennas), and more.
We are also hardly working on integrating what we call "The Advanced F-Low for all users: Balancing badness and chores with sanity".
After rebooting your devices, please wait 24h for our full announcement!

2026-03-28 10:38:24 UTC

#FDroid Client 2.0 is on track, already at Basic alpha5, did you test?
Besides a plenthora of cosmetic modernisation, it gets heavy rewrites internally.
One feature for #Android distros developers is the ability to "add a default repository".
Want to know how that works? How that changed? Read @nprofile…jzdh 's post here: https://f-droid.org/2026/03/28/how-to-include-repos-in-rom.html

We seek an enthusiastic, collaborative and diverse board that can support our community as effectively as possible.

Not sure where #Google asked for feedback about their developer verification program, but they surely didn't talk with #FLOSS devs, civil society, privacy organisations or their #Android users
#FDroid did since September, and interacted with folks in the Fediverse, forum, email and in person
They all voiced one opinion: "developer verification must be stopped"

We took for granted that at least our tech bubble would understand what the Google Decree means for Android, #FLOSS and freedom. Unfortunately we never saw the uproar we were expecting and people just shrugged it off taking for granted that "nothing changes".
@nprofile…gvrr great #FDroid post brought the issue into the light, waking up developers, users, media and (we hope) concerned authorities to the immense danger the newly proposed gatekeeping controls Google wants to add.

PSA: If you haven't updated #K9Mail to 12.0, please don't update it. It will crash on start if you use the unified inbox. The bug has been fixed in 12.1 and will be available in the next #FDroid update. #Thunderbird is not affected, kind reminder to consider switching as K-9 will go away in the future anyway.
Workaround for now: Make a widget for a single mailbox, then you can open K-9, you can change accounts and disable unified inbox.

Just in time, the #EUCommission has opened a public consultation on the revision of the #DMA effectiveness, with a deadline for Sept 24.
It's a great occasion to propose actual adjustments to the DMA text, like some to tackle the pre-install advantage, the systematic blocks of #Google Play Protect/Play Integrity, etc.
We believe we can achieve stronger impact if the Commission receives this kind of suggestions from many fronts, and not just from #FDroid.

If you feel that #FDroid downloads are slow just press ❎ to cancel the download then press Install/Update again so it picks up some other mirror.
There's no unified "F-Droid server" but several and a dozen or more mirrors.
Each time you try again it will use a different one. Hopefully the next one will have better bandwidth.

Update #1: A user tracked this to having #PrivacyBadger or #uBlockOrigin or #Ghostery extensions installed.
Testing with disabled #uBO made Fennec load pages instantly, but let's be honest, we can't use the Internet without uBlock... 🙄

#Fennec #Firefox 142 is live in #FDroid and we're having fun already!
Yes, swipe it away and be amazed how on reopen pages won't load. 😢
We got tricks for you:
1️⃣ Instead of swiping the app you use the ❎ Close option. The button appears if you enable "Delete browsing data on quit" in Settings. eg. keep only "Cached images and Files" toggled ON
2️⃣ *No joke* when the page loads and drags on, you just lock the screen. 🤷 On device unlock the page will load. 🎇

Back in April we asked you for a helping hand regarding legal matters. We got plenty of people willing to help or at least to guide us towards other like-minded projects that might have the experience we were looking for.

"Hey Google, what is Android?"
* "Android is... quarterly source-code over the wall called AOSP"
* "Android is... not GMS or Play Integrity"
* "Android is... not the device trees or driver binaries of Pixel phones"
* "Android is... not part of the monthly security reports"
And today, we discover, "Android is... not `system-images;android-36;default`" per https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/432143095
The F in #FDroid stands for "freedom", but there's no "F" in Android... nor any promises.

The #EU #DMA compliance workshops exist to regulate gatekeepers powers, yet both #Apple and #Google treat them like "product launches" where non-engineers show slides and can never answer questions.
The Android play-field, instead of taking steps to respect the DMA, Google shrinks what Android even is. If Apple can own its closed iOS, Google figured they can privatize Android?
Maybe it being #FOSS for 17 years was just a glitch and now Android is out of the famous Google betas?

The last index update triggered a bug in the official F-Droid client, and Basic: you'll see a toast with "not nullable: icon" and the index won't update. We have reverted the related change and working on fixing the bug. The fix will take about two build cycles to be deployed, so about one week. You can get the latest index now by cleaning app data or reinstalling the client, but you'd have to setup your 3-rd party repos and their priorities.
We are tracking this in: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroidclient/-/issues/3054

We're starting a sprint to look at all the issues preventing #ReproducibleBuilds in all the apps we ship. Most of the issues are simple fixes in the upstream code, like unsorted outputs or timestamps included in the build.
You can help make the #FreeSoftware #Android ecosystem be more reproducible! See the failures here and help us report them upstream: https://verification.f-droid.org/failed.html

Unlike Google, F-Droid does not force developers to publicize their name or address information.
We understand that people have many reasons to develop under another name than their legal one and to keep their personal information private. And that what matters is the trust between user and developer, not private details of their lives.
For more information on how we designed F-Droid to protect your privacy, see https://f-droid.org/2022/02/28/no-user-accounts-by-design.html.
