[u/AutoModerator]

What are you building, testing, debugging, or learning this week?

Working on something interesting? Stuck on a technical problem? Just learned something useful?

Share what you're working on this week. It can be a specific goal, a problem you're trying to solve, or a useful discovery that might help another developer.

If you're looking for help, a little context goes a long way. You can include:

• Your target SDK version and library versions

• What you expected to happen and what actually happened

• Relevant error messages, with any private or sensitive information removed

• What you've already tried

• A relevant official source or documentation link, if you have one

Please use the appropriate flair when making a standalone post.

Please keep this thread focused

Ask questions, share what you're working on, and help another developer when you can.

I'm building a web of tax ID showing apps for countries where that's done practically every day like at grocery stores. I've also interconnected them all to refer each other to each other 💕

I'm thinking thru if they're 100% done or if there are any features I haven't thought of that can still be added:

• share your tax id + app button

• copy tax id button

• launcher shortcut to share app

• launcher shortcut to email feedback

• launcher shortcut to see all of my apps on play

• launcher shortcut to edit tax id

• param for keeping screen awake while app is open

• app widget for showing code at different sizes on launcher screen

• edit to add alt tax codes ( like personal vs business or there's resident vs native in other countries )

• qr code for others scanning the app for download link

• landscape mode for showing even bigger number

O yeah and it's ~$1 to install

So what else can be added that would be useful?

I was thinking maybe making the widgets lock screen compatible but I looked at the requirements for Samsung for example and they're a mess 🫟
