* Unable to set lock pin for Android apps (10 mins -- CLMA31)
  (rainemak, 16:05:08)
  * <CLMA31> This is for sure well known topic for Jolla. And this has
    (rainemak, 16:05:17)
  * <CLMA31> probably been asked already more than once… But hey, one
    (rainemak, 16:05:17)
  * <CLMA31> more? :) I raise this topic again as it might be
    (rainemak, 16:05:17)
  * <CLMA31> problematic/shock for many new comers with the Jolla phone.
    (rainemak, 16:05:17)
  * <CLMA31> There has been some finding done by the community which
    helps to  (rainemak, 16:05:17)
  * <CLMA31> mitigate problem in some apps: Unable to set lock pin for
    (rainemak, 16:05:19)
  * <CLMA31> Android apps requiring it - #77 by nick8325 & Unable to set
    lock  (rainemak, 16:05:20)
  * <CLMA31> pin for Android apps requiring it - #61 by nekron . You
    have  (rainemak, 16:05:22)
  * <CLMA31> probably seen these already, but I wanted to raise this
    topic  (rainemak, 16:05:24)
  * <CLMA31> again in case there is some plans regarding this? I am
    (rainemak, 16:05:26)
  * <CLMA31> personally in high hopes that fixing this would allow me to
    use  (rainemak, 16:05:28)
  * <CLMA31> for example Microsoft Authenticator, but for many this
    could  (rainemak, 16:05:30)
  * <CLMA31> make it possible to use more banking apps etc.  (rainemak,
    16:05:32)

    (rainemak, 16:05:37)
  * <Jolla> Thank you CLMA31. Yes, this is well-known by Jolla.  Let's
    see if  (rainemak, 16:05:40)
  * <Jolla> & when we have a chance to work on this. As you may
    understand,  (rainemak, 16:05:42)
  * <Jolla> there are a lot of different kind of things that we
    could/should  (rainemak, 16:05:44)
  * <Jolla> be working.  (rainemak, 16:05:48)

* New customers vs. returning fans on the Jolla Phone (10 mins -- asked
  by rubdos)  (rainemak, 16:16:01)
  * <rubdos> The Jolla phone sales are a great success, and the second
    batch  (rainemak, 16:16:01)
  * <rubdos> seems to fly out of the window like hot cakes as well.
    (rainemak, 16:16:01)
  * <rubdos> Congratulations! I’ve seen various mentions on X today of
    new  (rainemak, 16:16:01)
  * <rubdos> people joining the Sailfish OS community, through buying
    the new  (rainemak, 16:16:01)
  * <rubdos> device. This is great news! As an app-developer, I want to
    be a  (rainemak, 16:16:03)
  * <rubdos> bit prepared for the influx of new users. It made me
    wonder:  (rainemak, 16:16:04)
  * <rubdos> what is the fraction of returning Sailfish OS fans versus
    new  (rainemak, 16:16:06)
  * <rubdos> Sailfish OS users?  (rainemak, 16:16:08)
  * <rubdos>  (rainemak, 16:16:10)
  * <rubdos> I suspect that the existence of Whisperfish (sub for any
    popular  (rainemak, 16:16:12)
  * <rubdos> app!) could be a driving factor for the new influx. If
    there are  (rainemak, 16:16:14)
  * <rubdos> approximately (lets say) 5000 new Sailfish OS users, and
    they  (rainemak, 16:16:18)
  * <rubdos> all start using Whisperfish the minute that their phones
    arrive…  (rainemak, 16:16:20)
  * <rubdos> I’m going to have to take a month off of work for support
    (and I  (rainemak, 16:16:22)
  * <rubdos> probably will), and another month before the first
    shipments to  (rainemak, 16:16:24)
  * <rubdos> polish the app (to thwart the bug reports, and I probably
    will).  (rainemak, 16:16:26)
  * <rubdos> So my question: can Jolla share any estimates with the
    (rainemak, 16:16:28)
  * <rubdos> community?  (rainemak, 16:16:30)

* Plans for Treat Mobile as WiFi for 10 III AAS (10 mins -- asked by
  teleshoes)  (rainemak, 16:29:53)
  * <teleshoes> This crucial feature fixes a very long-standing, painful
    bug  (rainemak, 16:29:53)
  * <teleshoes> /defect, but only for C2. The new Android13 AAS finally
    (rainemak, 16:29:53)
  * <teleshoes> coming to 10 III in 5.0.0.73 sadly did not include this
    (rainemak, 16:29:53)
  * <teleshoes> feature, which was a surprise at least to me. Fixing the
    (rainemak, 16:29:53)
  * <teleshoes> network detection and the IP/routing issues in android
    would  (rainemak, 16:29:54)
  * <teleshoes> be wonderful of course, but as a stop-gap for the next 4
    (rainemak, 16:29:56)
  * <teleshoes> years, this solution is nearly ideal. This topic is
    purely  (rainemak, 16:29:58)
  * <teleshoes> about asking when this feature is coming to 10 III, or
    making  (rainemak, 16:30:00)
  * <teleshoes> the case for the importance of it if it is not planned.

    (rainemak, 16:30:04)
  * <Jolla> “Treat mobile data as WLAN” requires more work on the
    AppSupport  (rainemak, 16:30:06)
  * <Jolla> integration side. Hopefully that is not too overwhelming
    amount  (rainemak, 16:30:08)
  * <Jolla> of work and we get it to all supported devices  (rainemak,
    16:30:10)
  * <Jolla> eventually -- crossed fingers.  (rainemak, 16:30:12)

* Unified Attestation (5 mins -- asked by Cryx)  (rainemak, 16:41:51)
  * <Cryx> see linked topic… Is Jolla aware of this new initiative, may
    it be  (rainemak, 16:41:51)
  * <Cryx> possible to implement that in AAS, would Jolla participate in
    that  (rainemak, 16:41:51)
  * <Cryx> initiative?  (rainemak, 16:41:51)
  * LINK: https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/unified-attestation/28249
    (rainemak, 16:41:51)
  * <Jolla> Thank you for asking. We are very well aware :-).
