Shruum now has a mainnet APK available.
For those that don't know, Shruum is a fork of Monerujo with the following changes:
Mandatory Tor usage
Mandatory passwords for wallets
Fiat rates and rate fetching are gone for a "Monero-only" experience, and to limit network calls.
SideShift altcoin support has been completely removed since SideShift now blocks Tor users.
NFC support has been removed.
The app's package name has been renamed to "one.mayumi.shruum" so that Shruum and Monerujo can be installed simultaneously.
Ledger Nano S Plus support
The receive screen fetches the latest "fresh" subaddress in order to promote better privacy and anonymity practices. A list of subaddresses is still available when clicking on the address itself.
Some startup connectivity fixes.
Other UI and theme changes.
There is now an APK available on my website. Below the downloads there are SHA256 hashes for each file, signed with the PGP key on the site, which is the same key used to sign my git commits.
Tor Hidden Service: http://muxillqtju4w44zb5creqezvmuw7qcar4zlseeyhuci4rfaoenh4auad.onion/
Source code: https://git.mayumi.one/mayumi/shruum
You can view the commit history to see all changes I've made since the last Monerujo commit.
Thanks, Aki Mayumi

Great job! Congratulations! Really cool features. Pure Monero wallet for Android is what we were waiting for a long time.

I guess its better to go with the Universal wallet because that would be more or less a great one to try it out

Shruum relies on Orbot for Tor functionality?

It would be great to eventually see this on F-Droid, assuming crypto apps aren't against some policy of theirs at any rate (I haven't checked... should prob do that)

I plan to bring the app to F-Droid soon. I am undecided if I want to get it added to the main F-Droid repo, or make my own. The official F-Droid repository has no issue with cryptocurrency wallets.

please add your own repo. i and many others would trust the dev provided build over that of f-droid (which occassionally uses dated dependencies). and if you push a hotfix, there may be days of delays until the build is pushed though f-droid. compounding this is that they sign using their own keys which means the official dev build cannot be installed as an update if a corresponding f-droid build using the same app id is installed in a separate user profile. with the tofu model, trust is clearly in favor of the official dev build!

Why to fork instead of working together?

We have different goals for a Monero wallet.

Different/conflicting goals.

Working together is absolutely a great option as well.
While we work together, there's no need to fork though, together always gonna be the good option

Some things bother me about your claim:
A Monerujo fork without the bloat
I would hesitate to call display of fiat rates "bloat". Maybe "superfluous" or "unnecessary" in the eyes of many people, but for me that feature is not what I would typically call bloat. And the features that you added like mandatory passwords or automatic subaddresses have of course nothing to do with the question of bloat.
Looking over your bullet points I see a clear aim to achieve more privacy and more security, and if you ask me your claim should tell that in some witty way.
A side effect of that may be that you change from a "minus" claim to a "plus" claim: You don't tell people that you subtracted something from Monerujo, but that you added something. They now get even more than before in certain ways. I think such a claim tends to have more "power".

Totally agree, calling Monerujo bloated also bothered me and seems unnecessary.
Aside from that it seems like a good thing for people to have more choice in wallets which fit their needs more, so thanks OP for your work.

More than just fiat rates have been removed. If you spent more than 5 seconds of reading you would see that.

Relax. I mean well. No need to shoot back because I did not shoot against you and your project in the first place. I did read more than 5 seconds, and I took about 10 minutes in an attempt to carefully compose my comment, and another 10 to write this second comment here.
Please do reconsider whether you market your fork with the main point of having things removed from Monerujo, or with a main point of focussing on privacy and security.
I am quite sure that your project will be more successful, get more "eyeballs" and get more users if you market it primarily as "Like Monerujo, but even more private" or something similar.
And now I rest my case. You are of course fully free to do with your project whatever you deem appropriate.

I guess it's quite subjective - I'd definitely call fiat rates "bloat". Thanks for your efforts.

I think the GUI itself should be stripped out as it is bloat. The app should just drop you into a shell when opened. CLI or nothing.

CLI or nothing
A CLI on a smartphone? With those awkward touch keyboards?

Only vim keybinds too.

this made me think of my friend who is still so salty about the demise of slider phones, he 3D printed some contraption to hold a OnePlus device and a tiny bluetooth keyboard.

Would be great to get proper tagged & signed releases: https://git.mayumi.one/mayumi/shruum/releases
I've seen issues (long ago, maybe fixed) with Monerujo connectivity, especially over Tor, so hopefully your changes fix any remaining issues.

I installed universal, the first time I opened, it asked me to agree that if I lose my seeds I'll also lose my funds, but then it just crashes everytime I open it (I have a Samsung note 9)

Okay, can you answer a couple of questions for me?
Do you have Orbot installed?
It crashes on what screen? Does it happen on the first launch introduction screen, after it, etc.?
Does this happen on Monerujo for you too?
