20 bucks is definitely not the amount you’d likely need to offer. Though if you’re talking to current project maintainers you might be able to contribute that towards a feature bounty.
Picking a random dev off the street and asking them to contribute to a code base they’ve never seen before is going to be a multi-day ask at minimum and, if you’re looking to actually attract someone with money that’ll be a few hundred dollars minimum.
There are usually kofis or similar for projects you can contribute to and you can always create or upvote a ticket to create the feature.

Agree, but before any one else takes the time:
github.com/search?q=repo%3Ajarnedemeulemeester%2F…
Function is already in place,just TODO, and a 30 second code scan shows clean, standard code base. Anyone who’s worked on Android could probably do this in a few hours including set up time.
$20 is still nowhere close, though. Feature donation is def the way to go.
