Fossify Contacts (fork of Simple Contacts) and Fossify SMS Messenger (fork of Simple SMS Messenger) have been released on F-Droid.
Other Fossify apps available for download on F-Droid:
Fossify Gallery (fork of Simple Gallery)
Fossify File Manager (fork of Simple File Manager)
Fossify Phone (fork of Simple Dialer)
Fossify Calendar (fork of Simple Calendar)
(ICYMI, Simple Mobile Tools suite was acquired by an adware company and their apps on the Google Play Store now contain trackers and unnecessary permissions. This report from Exodus shows that the old version of Simple Gallery had 0 trackers and 10 permissions, whereas the app, after sale, contains 9 trackers and 21 permissions!)
About Fossify: Fossify is all about community-backed, open-source, and ad-free mobile apps. A fork of the SimpleMobileTools, which is no longer maintained, and we’re here to continue the legacy, bringing simple and private tech to everyone.
If the phone app doesn’t have call recording, I’m not interested. SimpleMobileTools were nice, I’m glad that they’re still continuing on in spirit through a fork, but there are plenty of FOSS apps to choose from - pick the ones you like most.
Saying that though I understand the appeal of having a set of apps that look the same.

That’s what I always use.
I think in some regions it’s illegal to even have the function to record, as such many apps shy away from it.
I think the AOSP one announces that you’re recording the call to the other person. You can get non-announced call recording if you’d root your phone, but I’d understand if you don’t want to do that.
