It's amazing and it keeps getting better with each update. I have it set up with a number of commands to remotely from my phone lock/unlock my PC, turn Bluetooth on or off, toggle night mode, start and kill certain apps, etc. It's very handy to share links and files from my phone straight to my PC or vice versa.
I've been using it for a while as well, I love the remote commands especially. Would you have any clue why the widget for my commands stopped working? It was removed one day, so I added it back, but my commands don't show up there.
I'm not sure. Are you talking about an issue on the PC or the phone? Did you perform any updates? What distro are you using? There may have been a major update that may have wiped your settings, but without more info it's hard to tell.
I'm talking about on the phone. As far I can tell I have the latest updates. I'm able to see and run my commands from the app itself, but the widget is blank.
Ah I see what you mean. I had to tap on the widget and then I could select my PC and eventually see my commands. Strange change for the UI/UX as it's not very intuitive. A "tap to select PC" would be a lot more helpful than just a blank screen in the widget.
By lock/unlock do you mean using biometric login?
Biometric on my phone to unlock it (or PIN), but with KDE connect it's just running
loginctl lock-session/loginctl unlock-sessionto lock/unlock the PC.
