Hi,
Let’s start a thread where everybody can report possible bugs in /e/ to fix in future updates.
I’ll start, maybe some are not bugs and can be discarded later.

  1. The standard calculator in /e/ is too simple. So I downloaded google calculator from “Apps” (the app store). But now I can’t update it (it says update available, I can download it but install does not work) (try it for yourself if you want)
  2. CCleaner app works great the first time. The second time it does not work anymore.
  3. Latest security fixes from android or lineage OS take too long to be implemented in /e/ imho.

Please report more bugs if you found any and discuss a fix or if they are really /e/ bugs at all, thanks!

How about reporting bugs to the GitLab set up for exactly that because that’s where the developers are and perhaps fix them :wink: … https://gitlab.e.foundation/e/backlog/-/issues.

Pl use the Gitlab as mentioned by @AnotherElk …that is where the issues can be assigned to developers and close them.
To understand how to report an issue follow this guide

Hi all,
I found another bug and a workaround.

Bug: Sometimes the App Lounge app can’t be started again. It will give an error and automatically shuts down when you try to launch it.
This is probably because App Lounge installs apps automatically and autonomously in the background, and I sometimes install apps manually on other “App stores (F-Droid, Aptoide)” as well. This is what probably causes the error/bug. So the user is actually at fault here, but App Lounge can’t handle it correctly.

Workaround / Fix:
Go to:
Settings > Apps and notifications > App Lounge > Storage & Cache > Tap “Clear Cache” and especially “Clear Storage”.

Now you can launch App Lounge normally again.
