    I think I had already noticed the existence of that app. But it is
designed for an older version of Android than the one on my phone, so
that there is a warning that it can't be upgraded. This is why I didn't
install it in the first place. But maybe I can install it anyway and
give it a try. Specially interesting is that the package manager is apt.

    Thanks for pointing to it.
