I’d really appreciate it if you could take a look at the current layout and share your feedback. Are there any settings that you think would be better suited in a different section? Let me know your thoughts!

Hello!

Apologies for the late response but I'm moving to the countryside and there are so many things to do while I settle.

When 1.7.2 will be published on F-Droid I will update the app and come back with feedback.
