Google didn't let us publish the app anymore with that usage of the accessibility permission. I tried reaching out to Google to understand why but failed (I just got generic "this is not allowed" responses, from the various people I managed to talk to), so I had to remove that functionality from the app to be able to publish it. It sucks, because I think we are not doing anything against the policies, but speaking with Google is impossible in my experience. Hi! Thanks for the Reply! Is there any workaround, like installing an older version, or the version from F-Droid? I love this feature. Cheers The KDE Connect app available in F-Droid may work for you. I have this installed through Neo Store (which is a front end to F-Droid), and I can control my phone with the mouse on my Linux system. This is on a Sony Xperia with Android 12. kdeconnect on Android 12 - 1.30.1 Operating System: Solus 4.5 KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.1.0 Qt Version: 6.6.3 Would you mind trying the F-Droid version to see if that works? |
