  • I don’t think any of the recommendations here are even close to what OP is asking for… QUIK from my understanding is just a replacement SMS app, it does not “sync messages to other devices” or allow you to send SMS messages via your phone from other devices, nor does it have a desktop/web version, all of which is what Message+ does. Pretty sure this requires a self-hosted server to do (or a third-party proprietary service like MightyText).

    SmsMatrix, KDEConnect/GSConnect, Nextcloud Talk are some examples that will do this.






  • I use the DigitalPersona 4500 with libfprint. Unfortunately, there are multiple revisions of the device with the same model number and only some of them work properly under Linux (different encryption method I believe). As far as I know this is not actually documented anywhere. Googling just shows a bunch of unresolved bug reports of people having no idea why it doesn’t work.
