We now play a sound when adjusting volume sliders for different media roles (like ringtones or notifications) to make it easier to tune them in relationship to each other (by rudra). The dialog to add shortcuts to the on screen keyboard is now also […]

#phoc gained support for the xx-cutouts-v1 Wayland protocol to inform clients about display cutouts and notches. Below screenshots shoes our video player #livi using that information to keep the video out of the cutout area:

The on screen keyboard can now keep it's size constant in landscape too which helps on tablets. We also now scale up the key's fonts and icons when upscaling. (This needs more works for the popovers, completions bars, and shortcuts to make all things look correct).

The #polkit prompt now shows more user data (by arun-mani-j) like the

We've just merged some code to automatically scale up the on screen keyboard in landscape on larger screens like tablets also allowing it to use more horizontal space.

While at that we also added the necessary bits to scale up font and icons on the […]

You can also now disable the letterboxing of the video making it use the full height (at the expense of the left and right side). This can be useful on #mobile in landscape mode to make the whole video a bit larger while still preserving aspect ratio.

One thing bothering us when playing videos with our little, mobile friendly video player #livi was that playing from video sites like #peeretube or #youtube showed very little information in #phosh's media player widget. This is now fixed on Livi's main […]

#gmobile can now handle different corner radii of displays and phoc already,
renders them correctly. We don't pick up that information in the shell yet though.

In the mobile settings app the conf-tweaks handling gained a sysfs backend completing the implementation of the #postmarketOS tweaks. This will allow to cut down on the number of settings apps in #postmarketos .

New year, new release candidate!

We've tagged #phosh 0.52~rc1 together with #feedbackd 0.8.8, gmobile #0.6.0 and #pfs 0.0.6 . pfs now ships a simple example file selector app, excuse the logo but we were thinking about a _mobile_ file cabinet:

Happy […]

Happy holidays everyone 🎄, Here's some update on how we'd like to inform client apps about display cutouts https://phosh.mobi/posts/xdg-cutouts/

That was unexpected. Thanks a lot for your interest! (Original poll at https://berkeley.edu.pl/notice/B0x5vCs5tsaoEDBJpY but that doesn't render in the web version, hence a screenshot).

While you can configure the alarm clock sound in #phosh the default isn't great atm (it's the fallback from the freedesktop.org sound theme).

If your into 🎵 music / sound design and want to provide us with a good morning wake up sound 😴 please join us on […]

Since most distributions ship stevia as default on-screen keyboard nowadays we decided to promote it to a core component. It gained several new features
in this release.

* Text auto complete automatically adds a space when inserting a word. We now remove […]

Phosh's compositor phoc gained workspace support. This is mostly useful in
docked setups with external mouse and a keyboard attached but we
intend to make use of it in the future for the mobile use case too.

We also switched to #wlroots 0.19.1.
