Label for apps which use realtime chat

I suggest adding a label to apps in the xstore which use P2P realtime chat so that users who want to avoid this or who have realtime chat disabled can easily identify which apps will or won’t work for them and not waste time into apps which do use realtme chat.

Expected behavior

Apps which use P2P realtime chat are clearly labeled in the xstore

Actual behavior

Impossible to dinstinguish between apps which do or don’t use P2P realtime chat in the xstore

Some apps are hybrid. That’s also relevant for labelling.

True. You could have one label to indicate that realtime chat is needed and another to indicate that it is optional, and no label to indicate that realtime chat is not used at all.

Or you could have three labels:

  • P2P Realtime Chat: Needed
  • P2P Realtime Chat: Optional/Hybrid
  • P2P Realtime Chat: None

notice that just having a good app description mentioning the use or need of the feature then you can simply search for “realtime” and see what apps use or depend on it

However it seems to me that many apps do not clearly mention this. I agree, it would be nice if all the apps have a good description but this isn’t always true.

Also I think searching for “realtime” and trying to remember which apps do or don’t show up in the search is not very efficient, but maybe if the xstore will include a filter option to filter for realtime apps, this would be much more efficient.
