KStars Lite issues

[Jasem Mutlaq]

Hi Aleix,

So The KStars Lite QML works fine when compiled and test on the desktop,
but the settings do not get saved on Android for some reason. Is there a
way to find out? On the desktop it creates ~/.config/kstarsrc, where does
it keep the same file on Android? I looked under org.kde.kstars (in Samsung
S5) but couldn't find any file. Is there anything special we need to add to
KStars to make it save settings on Android?

Regards,
Jasem
