  • kdeconnect-ios

    Native iOS port of KDE Connect

  • They acknowledge the GPL conflict in [the license file](https://github.com/KDE/kdeconnect-ios/blob/master/License.md):

    > …we have committed not to pursue any license violation that results solely from the conflict between the GNU GPLv3 and the Apple App Store terms of service, including the FOSS-specific policies as outlined in sections 3.3.22, 5.1, and 9.1

  • Mosh

    Mobile Shell

  • Looks like it is based on the Mosh waiver https://github.com/mobile-shell/mosh/blob/master/COPYING.iOS, which went in about ten years ago. Blink Shell (which is of course also GPL'd) uses the Mosh code and is available on the App Store.

  • mconnect

    mconnect - KDE Connect protocol implementation in Vala/C (by grimpy)

  • Also reminder that it works with mconnect [1], an implementation in vala.

    I'm linking a fork since the original repo hasn't seen any recent commits (at least in master, looks like the owner has been trying to rewrite it first in Rust and now in Go)

  • ancs4linux

    iOS/iPadOS notification service client for Linux desktop (notifications on your desktop, over Bluetooth Low Energy)

  • I implemented a daemon for reading notifications (including SMS) on Linux https://github.com/pzmarzly/ancs4linux

    Adding support for sending SMS shouldn't be hard, but I don't have time recently to work on that. https://github.com/pzmarzly/ancs4linux/issues/10
