Hey it would be nice if we could have rich text support in the application descriptions on Jolla store.
For my recent application cpr metronome I use OpenRepos rich text support extensively to allow the store page to be a source of information about CPR with links to instructional videos while the application itself can remain 100% functional, I would really like to have the same situation on the store if possible.
(OT - It would also be cool if we had a way to present links in the store to places people can go to sponsor).

So urls and such are already automatically detected in the store app pages, or are you asking for ability to link specific words without exposing the url target? If you just want to offer the links or sponsorship places, just list them with some description?
For comparison checked google play on android and appears like they do also explicit urls. There’s some rich text, though, like bolding some words, but fairly limited. Didn’t go investigating what’s actually supported, just what the real apps use.
Generally I’d be a bit careful on what rich text should be supported. Bolding type of small things should be fine but beyond that it’s nice if the content remains relatively simple text.

In CPR metronome I use headings, lists and words as links, I basically leverage the page as the information page about CPR.
While I have played with the idea of adding a pull-down “about cpr” page to the app I’m trying to have it be with as little distractions as possible.
