Corvus for mobile 0.2.0: your bookmarks, reading list, history and watched pages on your phone. Android only for now.

Install

Platform File
Android 7.0 or later corvus-mobile-0.2.0.apk

Download the APK on your phone and open it; it installs over 0.1.0 and keeps your pairing. Check the file against SHA256SUMS.txt; the signing certificate's SHA-256 fingerprint is 62:68:03:EE:6A:63:DF:26:E3:7D:64:AD:E1:20:A6:AA:15:D7:B4:83:7C:45:FC:B9:46:02:D8:F3:30:3C:47:E9.

It needs Corvus 0.12.0 or later on your computer for everything below (0.11.0 for pairing, tabs and sending pages). If you host your own sync server, update it to the one in Corvus 0.12.0 so the phone can show your watched pages.

New

  • Library: a new tab with your bookmarks (browse folder by folder, or find one by title
    or address), your reading list (unread first; Mark read / Mark unread, synced with your
    computers) and your history from every computer, grouped by day, with search.
  • Watched pages: from the home screen, the pages your computers watch, with the freshest check,
    what changed (the AI summary) and whether your "Notify me when…" condition holds. Watch a new page
    from the phone, with a condition and how often to check it; your computers monitor it.
  • Share to Corvus (Android share sheet) now offers four things: send the page to a computer,
    save it to the reading list (a computer with Corvus fetches the article), bookmark it, or watch
    it for changes.
  • The phone keeps its copy of your synced data in files instead of app storage, so large
    histories fit; after the update it is fetched once more.

Preview notes

  • This is a preview: expect rough edges. The interface is in English for now.
  • iOS: the app is built to run on iPhone too, but there is no iOS build yet.
