 Now that we split between Signer (Amber) and Nostr App (Amethyst), who wants to develop the local Relay App?  

It's basically the same structure: Use Android's Content Resolvers to communicate between apps in the background. Nostr filters are translated to queries. The goal is to save all posts from the author or to the author on the phone and have some db management actions in place to clean things up here and there. 

In that way, we won't have duplicated databases for each Nostr app.  
 I think it's a bit too early for this. But I may be wrong. Not sure there are many people that are meaningfully using different nostr clients.

Also being asked to install 3 apps to set up one app correctly might be overload. 
 Things will always work on a single app. However having multiple apps will significantly increase the performance, reduce data usage, and improve the safety of the private key.  
 We intend to have this in Spring browser for web apps  
 It should be a separate DB app, though.  
 Our focus is on letting web apps access db, if there is a usable external app we'll bridge it 
 Interested in contributing. Where dev discussion at? 
 Here :) 
 How would this work? The relay app would connect with relays or the other apps would just use it to store and retrieve data? 
 is part of your thought chain this might go p2p? 
 At some point, yes.
