The basis of the current app design is very old and was extended over the years with new screens and dialogs implemented by different volunteer developers without always following a strict style guideline.
Recently we needed to change the target Android version, causing multiple UI failures and broken dialogs. We fixed it as good as we could, but due to a lack of contributors experienced with Android UI and style guidelines we are unable to make it consistent again.</description><content:encoded>&lt;div style="margin-bottom:1.5em;padding:1em;background:#f8f9fa;border-radius:8px;"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Organization:&lt;/strong&gt; c:geo Open Source Geocaching App for Android&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Status:&lt;/strong&gt; filled&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Compensation:&lt;/strong&gt; gratis&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Role:&lt;/strong&gt; App design&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;c:geo an open-source, full-featured, always ready-to-go Geocaching application for Android devices.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The first goal would be to fix the existing design and make it look consistent again over all screen and dialogs in the app.&lt;/p&gt;

We would love a material design but as coders we&amp;rsquo;re bad designers.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We would love designed screens from the following things:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Setup app (enter the nextcloud server settings)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Display vault list&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Login to vault&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Display credential list&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Display a single credential (nicely formatted)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Search credentials&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Page to change settings&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A &amp;ldquo;PIN&amp;rdquo; screen to unlock the app&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Edit credential
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Bear in mind that passman allows users to add custom fields (text / password /file)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Passman allows users to save their one time password token for generation&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Should include a password generator&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
