@kirschner #AntennaPod for Podcasts, #Fedilab for Mastodon and Fediverse, #Transistor for my daily #Dlf radio needs, #Aegis for #2FA, the recent version of #AnkiDroid for learning via flash cards, #SimpleGalleryPro for media management. #Auxio as a simple yet nice looking audio player. #OrganicMaps as an simple alternative to the mighty #OsmAnd. #NewPipe for my video streaming needs (even though #LibreTube is a very fine alternative when it exclusively comes to #YouTube), #Quillpad for taking notes, #KeePassDX as password manager. #DAVx5 to get stuff synchronized, #FairEmail as email client. #Feeder for my RSS feed needs. And finally the still new #FDroidBasic client allowing automatic updates of installed apps.
Recently tried out #SimpleX messenger and like it quite a bit so far. @fdroid
@cryptgoat
Thank you for the great list. Did not yet try out Aegis and Auxio. And one question in case you use it: Is the #nextcloud sync for quillpad working reliable?
@fdroid@kirschner @fdroid Sorry for getting back to you so late, haven’t been trying the Nextcloud-Sync yet but will do.

Not an everyday favorite but a potential life-saver: EtchDroid for creating bootable Linux USB drives. Allowed me to fix a laptop which wasn’t booting in the middle of a holiday.

Is it better than DB app?
@salman Öffi can navigate you through all public transport and doesn’t track you, so in a way, yes. It’s amazing - try it! @guerda @kirschner @fdroid
@datenritter @guerda @kirschner @fdroid
Cool! I will give it a try.
@salman
#oeffi and #transportr are really great apps I have used for many years.
@datenritter @guerda @fdroid
@kirschner
My Expenses, NewPipe, Open Note Scanner, Catima, ConnectBot, Earmouse, FairEmail, KeePassDX, SicMu Player, Street Complete, Termux, VLC, Wikipedia and those are just my favourites
@fdroidEver hear of KiwiX? You can use it to browse Wikipedia articles without data. It also works with some other sites as well
@kirschner
To use the smartphone’s camera as a scanner, with the convenience of having pictures converted into 1bit depth (B/W with no grey scale), lightening them a lot.
@fdroidCiao Gabriele! Thank you for this suggestion, the only problem is that this app, I’ve seen, that has no longer been updated. Does it still work fine?
@toketin
Yes, I still use it ;)
@kirschner
Tor browser, due to heavy traffic, sometimes becomes slow & due to security reasons could not load the websites. Mull able to load such websites quickly.

@kirschner@mastodon.social @fdroid@lemmy.ml Not just one app but the group of apps from simple mobile tools. No unnecessary permissions, easy to use, good functionality and a clean uniform UI makes then really usable.

#Satstat will show how well your GPS works, and all the sensors in your phone. Like, I used it to check magnetic fields when fixing some electronics
@fdroid@notsoloud
Interesting to hear about that use of Satstat. Thanks.
@fdroidAlso, Phyphox for access to various sensor data in graph form.
@kirschner
For offline non-tracking maps:
@organicmaps or #osmandMy favorite:

NewPipe
https://newpipe.netAll Pro versions of Simple Mobile Tools are also available free of charge on FDroid.
@kirschner @fdroid Unciv. There are other apps of course, but that one is my most favorite.
@rvansleen
Have not seen that before. Looks nice (also interesting to read the FAQs there)!
