Glad Obtainium works now! Fair point on the share sheet, a button that only lists the apps that can open that file type would be nicer.
Obtainium already works with the GitHub releases, and the README has a one-tap link for it.
There's no edit feature, but the viewer's Share button hands the file to any app that accepts it so that should work for what you said.
Thanks! The F-Droid request is here if you want to follow it: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/rfp/-/work_items/4138
Until then, Obtainium can install it from the GitHub releases and keep it updated.
Haha, thanks! If you set it up on their phones setting it as default should open most files that they want to opened without having to install another app 😂
Thank you, that means a lot!
A lot of it was written with AI, yes, under my direction, and every push runs the test suite in CI.
The no-permissions part doesn't rest on trusting the code, though. The build fails if a permission is added, the About screen shows what Android says the app requests, and it's MIT, so the code is there to read.
If anything in it looks wrong, open an issue and I'll look into it: https://github.com/mokshablr/gander/issues
Glad the pptx worked!
The name is from "take a gander" which is like slang for "take a look". A gander is also a male goose hence the icon. 😛
Gander treats every file as untrusted. Documents render in a WebView that runs only Gander's own scripts and loads nothing except Gander's own code and the file you opened. With no internet permission, a file that got past that still couldn't reach the network.
Nobody outside has audited it yet, and you're right that it wouldn't hurt. SECURITY.md lists what a file should never be able to do, and how to report one privately: https://github.com/mokshablr/gander/blob/main/SECURITY.md
well no more of that now, glad i got to share 😄
It's a good one. It installs apps straight from their GitHub releases and keeps them updated. Gander's README has a one-tap link to add it.
Yes! I opened a request with F-Droid in July and it's waiting for a reviewer: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/rfp/-/work_items/4138
Until then, the GitHub releases work with Obtainium.
Done, thanks! The README's install section now has a one-tap link to add Gander to Obtainium: https://github.com/mokshablr/gander#install
