0.0.13-alpha - 2026-09-21

Version code 13.

  • Home screens: inkOS and ThinkLauncher in place of CLauncher. The build
    for direct install carries inkOS v0.6 and ThinkLauncher v3.0, both made for
    e-ink, both GPL-3.0, each the release file of its maker and not changed.
    ThinkLauncher has the internet permission of its own. Rebind still has
    none.

  • Change a button from the Done step. "Change what it does" and "Change
    how you press it" go back to those steps with the button kept. Back on the
    Done step goes to the actions too. Tests: Route.back.

  • Show or hide the button bar is an action (build for direct install).
    Android 16 has no auto-hide for the three-button bar, so a button does it.
    It uses the shell commands of the Navigation screen and keeps the gestures
    as they are. The allow step asks for shell access for this action and for
    the light actions.

  • AI voice prompt is an action of its own (Viwoods). It is what the
    firmware does on a hold of the AI key: the Viwoods AI screen, told to start
    its voice prompt. It needs the Viwoods AI account, as the stock hold does.
    A component launch can now carry text extras (pkg/class?key=value).
    Tests: ComponentPayloadTest.

  • Ask when the user tries it. The first run asks for every grant once.
    After that the app asks at the moment something is missing: after a menu is
    saved, after the Power switch on the Navigation screen, when a Power press
    arrives while button remapping is off, and when voice typing starts with no
    microphone grant. Before, those places showed a short message or nothing.

  • Fix: system Back always closed the button setup. From Android 13 the
    system does not call onBackPressed for an app with this target version.
    The setup now registers the Back callback, and Back goes one step back.
    Checked on the reader: Done, actions, how to press, main screen.
