Although an Android app is very popular with the users, it has never quite been a first-class citizen in the Syncthing ecosystem. Mainly because it was not built from the ground up as an Android-native application, but rather a pretty neat way of running the unmodified Syncthing background service on that platform. We've seen over the years how much trouble this has caused, trying to force the square peg into the triangular hole. Android is just going in a different direction, targeting their functionality for a specific expected usage pattern from apps - and not trying to provide a general-purpose operating system as known from PCs.
Now that the official Syncthing app has been discontinued because of too limited developer time and effort, that situation hasn't changed for the better. I don't think we want to put too much pressure on the remaining Syncthing-Fork app developer by prominently directing users towards it. Unless of course he (@Catfriend1) would like the app to be advertised on the homepage more prominently.
Although Syncthing's official Android app has been discontinued, an unofficial fork is still actively maintained.
Should the "Downloads" page link to it?
