Re: [Commons-l] [WikimediaMobile] IEG proposal: Improve Upload to Commons Android app

Hi folks, I've been working on the Upload to Commons Android app[1] for the past few months as an Outreachy project (which was recently completed successfully[2] :)). A few changes were made to the app to make categorization of pictures easier, via suggestion of nearby categories and more flexible category search. However, there are lots of improvements (documented on our GitHub page[3]) that we couldn't fit into the scope of the Outreachy project. I would love to be able to continue working on the app to improve it further - hence an IEG proposal. My IEG proposal for the app involves: - Fixing long-standing bugs and looking into old crash reports to try and prevent them from recurring, to provide a smoother user experience - Making several enhancements to the app to make it more user-friendly and newbie-friendly, new location-based features (e.g. a list of nearby articles lacking pictures), and further enhancing categorization. - Increasing awareness of non-Wikimedians about this app to grow the contributor base Several of the proposed features are based on previous suggestions by users, and I would very much appreciate more feedback and suggestions! If you are interested, please do take a look at the current proposal[4], feel free to ask questions and make new suggestions on the Discussion page, and review it as you see fit. If you would like to be part of the project, volunteers and additional advisors are always welcome. Thank you so much!
