How do I tell Phosh that my app is mobile friendly?

[Barugon]

I'm writing an app using egui but the launcher only shows up if I click "Show All Apps". How do I get the launcher to show up when only mobile friendly apps are shown?

looks like you need to add this to your .desktop file

Code:

X-Purism-FormFactor=Workstation;Mobile;

Do you happen to know how to prevent the on-screen keyboard from popping up when the app starts?

I know you can disable the OSK through Settings > Accessibility, but I think that disabled it all together, probably not your use case of hiding the OSK when your app is started from the Phosh drawer(?)

I don't want to completely disable the keyboard but for some reason, it pops up when my app starts. If I press the keyboard icon in the lower right to hide the keyboard, bring up the app drawer and then return to my app then the keyboard is back again.

Turns out that it's an issue with egui: https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/3057
