Publisher Description
The Linux desktop on your Android device!
Are you a Linux/open-source enthusiast? Whether you are or not, if it seems cool to be able to have the Linux desktop on your Android device, then this app is what you're looking for. Currently there is a choice between the Unity desktop, elementary OS' Pantheon desktop, and Gnome. Missing your desktop of choice? Get in touch and if there's enough interest I might just add it 😉
Features include a couple of different themes, a search feature which allows you to search from a multitude of different search sources (both local and remote), and customisation options.
An optional gesture lets you swipe to open your notification tray. If you choose to enable this feature, DistroHopper uses an Android Accessibility Service to open the tray for you — the only way a home screen app can do so. The Accessibility Service is only used to open the notification tray. It doesn't read any screen content or perform any other actions.
If you have any suggestions or feedback, feel free to get in touch. The project is open-source with the source code publicly available at https://github.com/RobinJ1995/DistroHopper. If you're less technically-inclined but would still like to contribute, you can join the project's translation team over at https://www.transifex.com/distrohopper/.
