I'm currently looking to develop an open source app that can help somebody. I'm currently out of ideas, so I'd like to heard if from you guys.

Sorry if it seems to lazy to ask for ideas like that, I just thought that I could do it since the result will be a free app.

@federino
I would like to request a feature vor my prefered gallary app Aves.
I would like to have a protocol agnostic tool for Offline files.
I wish to work with my Images storred on a Server at home. It would be nice if I could Sync files with it and descide if an Image should be storred localy or only on server.

Storrage agnostic means, that i'm able to use either other saf integrations or been able to etablish a connection inside aves to smb or ssh-ftp.

I miss such an app also for my Linux laptop. Currently, such a way of managing files currently exist only on Windows ( OneDrive, Dropbox)

It’s not an Android app but ServerCat is the best multi device monitoring/ssh software for mobile that I’ve come across. Sadly none of the alternatives on iOS or Android compare. Totally room for a proper competitor that fits a lot of information in an intuitive and clean ui.
