F-Droid Apps List Does Not Have Search Magnifying Glass

[startac4]

I went to F-Droid.org on my backup phone (Samsung galaxy J2), selected APPS from the header near the top of the screen and it lists categories (e.g. "Connectivity""Development" et al). But there isn't a magnifying glass to let me do a search for anything. On my regular phone (LG K20) I get a list, in a slightly different format, with the magnifying glass. And also without that header.

You have to tap the 'Find Apps' area, if you are using the website.

Then tap the 'search' box.

I don't get the screen that you show. In fact it doesn't even say "Find Apps". It just has a list by area. See screenshot.

Dont select 'Apps'.

Just use this link to access F-Droid

https://f-droid.org/

or use the F-Droid app instead.

Scroll down from there.

Your screenshot looks a good deal different from the one I attached to my prior post but nevertheless I found and selected Download F-Droid , I couldn't find it because My Files wasn't displayed on the APPS screen. Had to do a search for My Files and then put it on the Home Screen. Now I have F-Droid installed.

My screenshot looks different because I use the link

https://www.f-droid.org/

whereas you were using the link

https://www.f-droid.org/en/packages/

See?

Not that it matters, because now you have the app.

OK - Thanks. I'll remember that for the future, if needed.
