Hugo PosnicAny idea how an app can be marked as "Desktop only" and be in the "Mobile" section of bazaar? Colorway is not the only app impacted
@kolunmi @AlexanderVanhee do you have an idea? if not maybe I can report the issue somewhere?
Alexander Vanhee@hugoposnic It was a bug in the algorithm, apps that "recommended" touch input were not considered mobile friendly.
Also, both we and GNOME Software only check for touch input, while Flathub additionally checks the minimum and maximum supported display widths. As a result, apps like Bazaar may appear as mobile friendly on the app page but not show up in the mobile category.
@AlexanderVanhee Oh thanks for the quick PR, happy to have found that!
Do you think that it would be good to have a setting (optional of course) to only see mobile apps in Bazaar? I think it could make sense for linux mobile users.
LinuxPhoneApps.org@hugoposnic 100% agreed, but there's also a bunch of app metadata improvements that need to happen to make this proposed change actually super useful:
1. Not all apps that claim to work on Mobile actually work on mobile (https://framagit.org/linuxphoneapps/linuxphoneapps.frama.io/-/issues/94)
2. Even more apps that have the proper metadata don't necessarily work on mobile (https://framagit.org/linuxphoneapps/linuxphoneapps.frama.io/-/issues/100)
Lots of boring busy-work waiting to be done there ;-)
BTW: PureOS ships a GNOME Software fork that has a "Only mobile apps" toggle, so the idea has been carried out before.

@linuxphoneapps Alexander already prepared the PR 😃 https://github.com/kolunmi/bazaar/pull/1187
But yes you're right about metadata!
