This is a kinda fun polyphonic musical note generator app; good for wasting time, relaxing, or mesmerizing a child or cat. It’s controlled by the keys, and sounds like a xylophone. The names of notes are generated as you type.
I actually don’t see a way to change the ringtone. I even looked around in the file system to see if I could find a place the ringtone might be stored, but no luck.
purism@pureos:~$ ls -la /usr/share/sounds/librem5/stereo/
total 492
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dec 4 17:56 .
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Dec 4 17:56 ..

And the name of the file simply matches the emitted event (phone-incoming-call in this case). It is played by the GSound as system event.
You would need to change the scheme
purism@pureos:~$ gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.sound theme-name
'librem5'
purism@pureos:~$
or override it locally in .local/share/sounds.
but I don’t have anything to test the ringing.
U2F as such works (on my Dogwood, but I assume on any L5)
Gnome Web does not support U2F, at least not on the L5
Firefox ESR does support U2F on the L5
I haven’t tested any of the other modes (i.e. other than U2F) that some Yubikeys offer.
Edit to add:
So, “installing a web page as an app” doesn’t work if U2F is required for login - Gnome Web can install but has no U2F, while Firefox has U2F but can’t install a web page as an app, to my knowledge
Imagine you’re at your usual Friday happy hour or Sunday afternoon beer bust and a sufficiently buzzed friend is oohing and aahing over your cool new Linux phone, and they now have a sudden interest in trying PureOS on their laptop when they get home.
“Well,” you say, “check it out…I’ll burn a bootable image for ya.” (Just so happens they have a spare USB-C drive in their pocket. And you just so happen to keep a downloaded PureOS image on your microSD card.)
I installed pyTrainer (pureos-amber) for testing. It has to be scaled down to a very tiny state to even see it all, but then it’s much too difficult to use, unfortunately. At larger scale it doesn’t scroll or drag to touch, which prevents you from getting to the off-screen parts.
I found and tested a couple of different converter apps, but they either didn’t launch or weren’t very usable, so this web app is a good option and has any currency rate you are likely to encounter.
Pro tip: Practically no disk space used.
There are lots of other conversion calculator websites, of course.
As far as I can tell, the installed calculator doesn’t have a way to switch to financial mode, although there is a setting for exchange rate interval (daily, weekly, etc.). Maybe there’s a plug-in to add that…?
I tested Mate Calculator, but it doesn’t fit the screen, unfortunately.
Mastercard and Visa are a great direct source for exchange rates, of course. Especially since we’re probably using one of their credit cards or ATM cards for the transaction.
