Here's what I'm rocking:

  • Aegis
  • App Lounge
  • AntennaPod
  • Bitwarden
  • Dicio
  • Doodle
  • F-Droid
  • FeedMe (Not FOSS. Open to suggestions)
  • Firefox
  • FNG
  • InvizBox
  • Jerboa
  • Mastodon
  • Music Player GO
  • Obsidian
  • OpenLauncher
  • Organic Maps
  • OsmAnd~
  • Proton Cal/Drive/Mail/VPN
  • RadioDroid
  • RedReader
  • Signal
  • Silence
  • Simple Keyboard
  • Tasks (Not the built in. I love this one)
  • Unit Converter Ultimate
  • Wikipedia

This is just about everything I have on my phone. I'm on a FairPhone 4 running /e/OS. What's your load out like?

I'm looking for a new keyboard. Glad for suggestions :D

Catima - for saving arbitrary barcodes and stuff that are hard to integrate into other wallets. I keep my local library card in there, and it works wonderfully

Nonocross - fun little game that has zero frills and distractions. Also very responsive on their github to suggestions and improvements

Termux - when I need to get into things from afar, this is how I do it

Box, Box! - Formula 1 news, schedules, standings, etc

Coffee - Sometimes I want to keep the display awake, so this comes in handy

We have similar lists, so some considerations:

  • Helium314 fork of OpenBoard for keyboard
  • Simple Gallery for your gallery (just purchased but there is an emerging fork I'm blanking on the name of)
  • Matrix with a Signal bridge so you can use tablets and other devices with Element, which has a wider range of devices
  • NeoLauncher is like OL, but with more configuration
  • Thunder for Lemmy. Great client, and only one with 2 column tablet support

Simple Gallery was bought by ZipoApps and will be soon flooded with ads and tracking garbage, FossifyOrg forked the whole simple mobile tools suite, and will continue development independently of ZipoApps

I use a few apps from the SimpleMobileTools suite. They aren't full FOSS, they have basic and pro versions where the basic version is GPL3 and the proprietary extended features cost a few bucks. The basic FOSS tools are still decent, if barebones.

The suite includes:

  • a calculator
  • a phone dialer
  • a music player
  • a calendar
  • a photo gallery (with basic editor)
  • an audio recorder
  • a flashlight
  • a clock
  • an app launcher
  • an SMS messenger
  • a camera
  • a keyboard
  • a note taker
  • a file manager
  • a contact book
  • a simple painting canvas

I use the gallery and file manager the most. Though admittedly I threw a couple bucks their way for the proprietary extensions. It's not FOSS, but if it was going to be proprietary, I think it's one of the fairest deals in software these days. Better than another bloody subscription model, or holding the ad-free experience hostage behind a paywall.

There's a lot of good recommendations here but I haven't seen anyone recommend Trail Sense yet. I use it to keep track of my steps without worrying about my levels of activity being monitored by anyone else. It also notifies me an hour before sunset since I actually go hiking.

Obsidian isn't FOSS. I highly recommend Logseq but keep in mind they require CLA signing for contributions

[-] jabjoe@feddit.uk 4 points 1 year ago

Seriously guys, no one saying Nextcloud?

  • The main app for photo backup.
  • Nextcloud Notes for well, notes you can also use from the desktop.
  • NC Passwords for well, passwords
  • Phonetrack to record your phone to Nextcloud Maps.
  • Deck for the Kanban.

I switched to Immich for photo backup/management. It's better by miles.

Material Files - the best files app I've ever used! Clean, material design and has everything I need. It can even run an FTP server

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I used that but it started to feel bloated after a while.

Nextcloud News I like for RSS since it fetches the full text article. Obtainium lkke others mentioned is a must have for me.

I'd recommend Mull instead of Firefox or Fennec (the deblobbed version) since it's hardened.

It's basically a Librewolf analogue for mobile

Organic Maps, Syncthing and Feeder.

[-] Elephant0991@lemmy.bleh.au 3 points 1 year ago

2FAS, Bitwarden, Firefox are my most used FOSS on Android for me.

[-] pewgar_seemsimandroid 3 points 1 year ago

megladon for mastodon

[-] wason@lemmy.run 3 points 1 year ago

What's FNG? Fluid navigation gestures? Is that FOSS? Can you share a link to the codebase? Can't find it
