The problem is that for example, Android is not available in Occitan, so the application won't show in this language.
Could we add a menu in the setting to set the language one wants?

* Both devices support Bluetooth, but neither device knows its own Bluetooth address (Android 8, see #1147)
* Both devices support wifi but they're on different networks (see #1223, #1178)
* One device only supports Bluetooth, the other only supports wifi
If the user declines to activate Bluetooth and there's no wifi connection, we can tell even sooner that we won't be able to communicate.
We should detect these situations and explain the problem to the user in an actionable way.https://code.briarproject.org/briar/briar/-/issues/1225Improve setup UX2018-06-13T10:09:16ZakwizgranImprove setup UXReport from user testing:

There are really two bugs here:
* The username and password aren't passed from the old SetupControllerImpl instance to the new one
* The result of the first account creation is returned to the old SetupActivity instance
The second bug is covered by #725, so this ticket is just for the first bug.Android 1.0akwizgranakwizgranhttps://code.briarproject.org/briar/briar/-/issues/1230Adding contacts remotely2023-02-23T10:15:44ZakwizgranAdding contacts remotelyUmbrella ticket for adding contacts remotely (sponsor 1, objective 1).Umbrella ticket for adding contacts remotely (sponsor 1, objective 1).Android 1.4https://code.briarproject.org/briar/briar/-/issues/1231Design protocol for adding contacts remotely2023-02-22T18:15:44ZakwizgranDesign protocol for adding contacts remotelySubtask of #1230.Subtask of #1230.akwizgranakwizgranhttps://code.briarproject.org/briar/briar/-/issues/1232Implement protocol for adding contacts remotely2019-06-10T14:15:56ZakwizgranImplement protocol for adding contacts remotelySubtask of #1230.Subtask of #1230.Android 1.2akwizgranakwizgranhttps://code.briarproject.org/briar/briar/-/issues/1233Design UX for adding contacts remotely2019-04-25T15:28:10ZakwizgranDesign UX for adding contacts remotelySubtask of #1230.Subtask of #1230.Android 1.2Elio Qoshielio@ura.designElio Qoshielio@ura.designhttps://code.briarproject.org/briar/briar/-/issues/1234Implement UX for adding contacts remotely2019-05-13T09:04:25ZakwizgranImplement UX for adding contacts remotelySubtask of #1230.Subtask of #1230.Android 1.2Torsten GroteTorsten Grotehttps://code.briarproject.org/briar/briar/-/issues/1235User testing for adding contacts remotely2022-11-18T17:24:07ZakwizgranUser testing for adding contacts remotely### Workflow Prototype Testing

Briar wants to add support for adding contacts remotely without them having to meet face to face. Before implementing this feature entirely, Briar wants to test an early design prototype to see if users would understand the workflow.
An APKs for testing (which can be installed along-side the official Briar) is available here:
* https://grobox.de/tmp/briar-add-contacts-remotely-user-test.apk
Test Setup: Two testers both install the same test APK on their Android phone. Without being in the same room, they try to add each other as contacts in Briar. The test finishes and succeeds when a new contact was added on both phones. Note that the contact that will be added is fake and purely for testing. While it will appear to be online, you will never be able to exchange messages until the feature is fully implemented.
Please finish the test **before** reading and answering the questions below!
---
### Questions (for after the test!)
1. Did you understand the difference between the two options for adding a contact and which one to choose?
1. When seeing the 'Add a Contact' screen, did you know what to do?
1. How did you exchange the links?
1. Were there any issues when exchanging the links?
1. After entering your contact's link, did you understand what happened?
1. When testing the full version, did you understand the QR code button? Did it confuse? Did you use it?
1. Were you confused about the delay before the contact was added?
1. Is there anything that would have helped you to understand the process better?
