License
dandelion* is released under GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE (see LICENCE). The translations (strings.xml) are licensed CC0 1.0.
WebApp
The app is developed as a WebApp because currently diaspora* doesn't have an functional 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 currently only WebApps for diaspora* out there. Stay tuned on diaspora* issues 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
