Debian is the Universal Operating System and we want to run it on our mobile devices.  What are the apps a mobile user needs, and what is the state of readiness in Debian of these apps?

Things to look for:

* Works well on small screen (main window, but also dialogs such as preferences)
* Works well on low-resolution screen (such as 480x272 [[https://nextthing.co/pages/pocketchip|pocketCHIP]])
* Works well with only left clicks (single touch screens)
* Works well with no keyboard (some devices need to use precious screen space for onscreen keyboard)
* Supports gestures where appropriate (scrolling or dragging/swiping)
* Supports multitouch gestures where appropriate (pinch zoom, etc)
* Resource efficient (low-RAM devices)

Things to document:

* Configurations that make the mobile experience better
* Work still to be done

== Apps ==

* EBook Reader: fbreader -- works well on small screen, even with low resolution
** {{{~/.FBReader/ui.xml}}} for [[https://nextthing.co/pages/pocketchip|pocketCHIP]]: [[attachment:fbreader-ui.xml]]
** Maemo platform config: https://github.com/geometer/FBReader/blob/7abc80d12fab06b05ea1fe68a0e73ea5e9486463/zlibrary/core/data/default/config.maemo.xml
* XMPP: gajim -- works decently on small screen. Low resolution all windows fit except for the "account settings" window
** {{{~/.config/gajim/config}}} for [[https://nextthing.co/pages/pocketchip|pocketCHIP]]: [[attachment:gajim-config]]
** {{{~/.config/gajim/pluginsconfig/roster_tweaks}}} for [[https://nextthing.co/pages/pocketchip|pocketCHIP]] (for use with roster tweaks plugin): [[attachment:gajim-roster_tweaks]]
** Snags: without a keyboard, there is no way to show/hide the roster in single-window mode, or to show/hide the menu bar.  The menu bar is quite small on a low-res screen, so it is best used with a keyboard.  Tabbed conversations can become hard to navigate if you have many open.  Need to double-click, click+enter, or right-click to open a chat -- usable on single-touch, but not ideal.
*** Auto-join MUCs you have left are re-joined on connection blip: https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/issues/8361
*** No way to show/hide the participants panel in a MUC: https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/issues/8352
* Bible: Xiphos is probably our best bet, if you hide all optional panels it seems fine for small-screen use.  Currently all windows will not fit on a low-resolution screen, though at least the main window can (https://github.com/crosswire/xiphos/issues/812) with a very small patch
* Web browser -- [[https://nextthing.co/pages/pocketchip|pocketCHIP]] uses surf and you keyboard heavily.  Works ok.  Maybe firefox?  They had a Maemo build back in the day, but it's been abandoned.  I see reports online that at least basic touch gestures can be set up with it.
** Update: I am using both surf and firefox on PinePhone now.  Both work great with touch, since I guess GTK can tell when it's a real touchscreen vs just a mouse and change gesture support accordingly.
** Midori? https://bbs.nextthing.co/t/another-way-to-browse-the-web-from-your-pocket-c-h-i-p/17550
** UBPorts browser?
