[Qgis-psc] QGIS for Mobile (Android)

[Andreas Neumann]

Hi Saber, 

This was indeed discussed but is pending approval by the QField
contributors. Up to now it is only a suggestion. 

It wouldn't be "the official" QGIS mobile app, but rather "the official"
QGIS mobile app on Android. There could be an "official" mobile app on
iOS and on Windows as well. At the same time we would like to
"retire/depricate" the old "QGIS on Android" project that hadn't been
worked on for a long time. We would like to encourage other projects
(such as "Input" and "QGIS Roam" to do the same, if there aren't any
license or technical barriers. 

He haven't discussed your option "2" yet. It would be nice to have the
same synchronisation service work for QField, QGIS Roam and Input. 

Thanks for reaching out about this, 

Andreas
