Is there a feature you've recently discovered in an app available on F-Droid that might not be obvious to casual users of the app? This is your chance to share it!

Something I'd really like is a way to export a list of apps I have installed with FDroid so I can easily repkicate them to a new phone.

As for hidden features, you can share APKs directly to another person using fdroid. It's great for when your recipient doesn't have fdroid

The Neo Store client for FDroid allows you to do this. I haven't actually used the install feature yet, but it exports a list to an .aps file and says it will load and download the list (dependent on the repos you have activated.)
