For everyone still using Simple Tools apps, switch to Fossify it's a fork that has all that crap removed
So far I only see Gallery, File Manager, and Calendar on IzzyOnDroid. Hopefully SMS and Contacts will be added soon.
dialer app is released too.
They are still being worked on
You can use Obtainium instead of F-droid. You can install Izzy, FD, or even better, direct from GitHub and other repos instead.
Not removed, it was just never added.
True
Wait what happened I am lost? Are they bad apps now?
Yea. They got bought by a bad company.
Rather it was sold to a bad company.
The dev will have hard time getting anyone trust him anymore.

Disable updates has never been a solution. It's a bandaid to a gaping wound.
True, but in this case it might be a good option until the corresponding Fossify app is available.
