Connecting the Android client app to an onion

[Constantin13]

Hi,

I am trying to setup an Android client to connect to the server via onion, not only for privacy but to remove the need to have a domain. Now the onion is not certified of course (http not https). I believe the app wouldn't entertain trying that connection just with http, would it? As a matter of fact, it fails. Could you confirm this is not an option?

Thanks a lot

Answer is written at the beginning of the project introduction: To use databag, you will need a DNS name pointing to your node with a certificate.

-> Apologies for missing it!

I really would like to support the onion router in some way. The mobile apps require https, but I should still be able to support the onion router with the browser apps.

No worries about missing that requirement; it's a good reminder for me to look into a possible solution.
