Jolla Phone update - Deliveries started and other next steps

Afair, Sailfish does have a built in webview, but i can’t see how this could be related to the browser’s performance

There is an emoji (not colored) keyboard, you just have to select it in Keyboards-Settings. Edit: there is/was a patch to make it colored.

You can also install the new FUTO keyboard, download emoji set and use that with it.

In the input methods section of the settings, the first item should be your enabled keyboard layouts. It might seem like a single item option first, but actually it is a list. Clicking it should open a list that you can choose multiple layouts from that are enabled, instead of the default picked by system language during the initialization of the phone. Emojis are one of the layout you can select here.

With the second option you select the default layout you want the keyboard to open to.

You can change the layout on the keyboard either by pressing and holding the space bar and selecting the language from the small menu that opens, or by swiping the keyboard to the side towards the language you want to use (I think they are in alphabetical order). Sometimes if you type too fast with letters close enough to each other, the phone thinks you swiped and changes the layout, which is known issue and Jolla is investigating :frowning:

One might think what is the difference between layouts, if you can type the words with your current layout, but it also changes the word prediction list to that language.

Oh yeah i am using the FUTO keyboard but i am surprised the default one has emojis because i couldn’t find them before. And you are right, there is an Emoji option in the list of languages. Pretty cool. Tho there is just a few of them there.

There is a WebView in SailfishOS: Sailfish Webview - Sailfish OS

But it uses the same engine as the default browser

Got shipping SMS from local delivery post center this afternoon, so hopefully tomorrow (Friday 9th Oct 2026) will be delivered to my home address.

Do you own still the other device? For me best practice is to handle the few cases at home with other device. Works great and no pain. 95% sailfish does the job very well and for the last 5% doin at home on the other device.

Yes just did the tutorial for the OS. I really like it. Still wondering which app from Jolla Store make really sense.

Depending on your needs… Android runtime and the jolla apps mail, clock and so on. I need Patchmanager.
The journey begins for you now. Keep in mind there are more stores available. Chum and openrepos / storeman. Watch out for how to start or beginner topics on the forum.

But ot now.

question: has anyone ordered JP2 accessories only since August 2026, and received their package?
if so, what date did you place the order, and when did you receive the order?

i know they are focused on JP2 fulfilment, but i’m curious if non-JP2 orders are being handled in the same queue.

i worry that non-JP2 orders won’t ship until next year.

In case you’re waiting for an ordered spare battery – according to a recent update it looks like they haven’t been shipped out yet.

Ordered some cases ten days ago. No info since then and I think they focused on jp2 - whats comprehensible

drat. thanks! i’m also waiting for other accessories, ordered separately (tpu cover and replacement lenses), so maybe those will come in eventually

I was in batch #1, received my phone over a month ago but did not receive the Inari blue cover. Instead there was a note stating that Jolla was temporarily out of stock and the cover will be delivered later free of charge.

Has anyone else in the same situation already received their Inari cover?

Got my phone today :slight_smile: The shipping label was created 3 weeks after I received the shipping email, but the delivery was very fast when it was actually shipped.

Hi.

Is it possible for you guys to share the preorder number?

I would really like to know where in the order list they currently are and when to expect the shipment of my phone. Paying 9 months in advance and then don’t here a single word from the company is really nerve-wracking…

(perhaps I should preorder more phones. Time passes much slower when waiting for the new toy…)

Hi. What can I do, when my phone has still not been delivered. I have already contacted Jolla support almost a month ago, but they still didn’t responded.
