### License
|
|
Diaspora for Android is released under GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE (see [LICENCE](https://github.com/Diaspora-for-Android/diaspora-android/blob/master/LICENSE.md)).
|
|
|
|
### WebApp
|
|
The app is developed as a WebApp because currently Diaspora doesn't have an API that can be used to create a native interface to retrieve the user's data, publications, direct messages and so on. That's why there are only WebApps for Diaspora out there.
|
|
[Stay tuned on Diaspora* Issues](https://github.com/diaspora/diaspora/labels/api) about API.
|
|
|
|
Why is a WebApp better than using the mobile site on a browser?
|
|
Basically it provides better integration with the system (events coming into and going out of the app), notifications, customized interface and functions and a nice little icon that takes you directly to your favorite social network :)
|
|
|
|
### Device Requirements
|
|
The minimum Android version supported is Jelly Bean, Android v4.2.0 / API 17
|
|
|
|
### App Permissions
|
|
Diaspora for Android requires access to the Internet and to external storage to be able to upload photos when creating a new post and for taking screenshots.
