Hello,

Does someone know how to add an app as "Device Administrator" on the Jolla?
In Android, there is a menu in Settings for that, but i am unable to find my way to do this on the Jolla.

Best regards.

Hi, I'm interested to know if anyone can get the Official F1 App to work with Jolla. Does it require Google Play services or some other bells and whistles? Can you generally use the paid features of an Android app on Jolla?

It hangs at the intro splash screen for me. I've used it on my ThinkPad laptop with Genymotion Android emulator, but it's a resource hog and I couldn't get it to work with Genymotion's latest version at all.

Of course for 10 years I enjoyed using the official Java web Live Timing on PC, but they couldn't just offer that for a premium price, no they had to intentionally cripple it (no sector times) so people would have to buy some Android piece of a junk instead.

Actually from my experience it's quite rare that an Android app doesn't start at all with Jolla. I remember one game that didn't start.

Has anyone tried the new premium version of Sports Tracker? It has some really cool features such as " Ghost target" where you can compete against your best run on a route etc. It also has Openstreetmaps now which might make the maps function properly on Jolla (the standard one didn't).

Hi everybody,

I installed Tapatalk from APK and everything is running fine except notifications which get never fired. It looks like it does not subscribe correctly to the push notifications services of the forum or something.

Has anyone a working setup with Tapatalk at SailfishOS?

Yes, you can. There is an app from Coderus in Openrepos called Superuser.

I couldn't install Viral anymore, it gives some error about the package. So I found a new app for streaming videos: TubeMate.

The great thing about it is that I can launch HD videos straight into the Sailfish Browser's native player which has perfect audio sync and plays also in cover mode and with display off.
