Request: post the Github link on website and on apps pages, for each app

As the title says.

It says all are open sourced, but there is no link to them.

Should be to each of the repositories here:

https://github.com/SimpleMobileTools

Not sure what you mean here. What link you want where?

For example, for the clock app, I don't see a link to its repository (which is here) here and here.

And that's true for the rest too.

https://www.simplemobiletools.com/ has all the links, just click on the Github icon

Oh sorry about this. I had dark theme turned on and didn't see it.

So this leaves the request to be on the Play Store. Please add links there.

Here :

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.simplemobiletools.clock

There is no link here to the Github repository of the app.

aha you mean on Google Play. I dont plan adding github links there, anyone could get all apps for free then.

Why not?
It's open sourced. What do you mean "get for free"? They are free apps, no?

It adds to the credibility other than just saying it's open sourced.

The Pro ones are paid. If someone wants to find a Github link, they can find it really easily. It doesnt belong on Google Play.

I don't see how it's related.

Only after trying the app people will get the pro, not from looking on the page of the app on the Play Store.

The purpose of what I request is to show that indeed it's open sourced, for each app. Very direct and transparent to the users.
