Chargie promises to prolong the quality of your phone’s battery life....

I hate how every phone uses biometrics as a bypass to a pin/password instead of being used in conjunction with a pin/password. With biometric + pin, someone needs both your pin and fingerprint. And there can be a prompt for a longer “fallback” password if there is X number of incorrect attempts or at restart. Is there such a...

I’m tried of how terrible Gmail is. Id like an email client with folders or categories. If it can sort them automatically (like how Googles now defunct inbox app used to) that would be even better....

Basically the title. I would rather not get scammed… :) The idea is to move to GrapheneOs as my next step, but I don’t necessarily need the newest device....

Would be nice to see what Android apps you use for self-help 😁

Apologizes in advance for the wall of text....

Last night in my area we had a bad storm when we were sleeping, and because I keep my phone in DND mode at night I didn’t receive any sort of audible alert despite having the “Override Do Not Disturb” checked....

I feel that it would be a waste if the Pixel’s hardware capabilities related to AI aren’t being utilised in a privacy-conscious way. Are there features/avenues in GrapheneOS to make use of this?

I was up late last night and we know how that goes - rabbit holes. This time I was trying to find some ways to make my phone feel a little snappier and possibly eliminate the issue I was having where my recent apps button stops working until I restart the phone. On Android 13 I found that if I changed to gesture based navigation...

I am wondering if someone know some trick about how to “tighten” the broken android screen?...

Hi folks,...

The other day I installed v13 of the AOSP as an update over v11. I don’t recall if this was from play store (unlikely) f-droid, or apkmirror. When I attempted to run it, it flashed and crashed. No worries, I thought, I use a different keyboard anyway....

Is there any app for filebrowsing / up and downloading files to a selfhosted MinIO server or any other S3 compatible object storage? Most apps only work with AWS 🫤

Any recommendation for an 8-inch tablet? I currently have a Samsung A7 Lite and it’s a decent enough tablet for light tasks but wouldn’t mind getting something with more – everything, other than screen size.

I’ve had a Pixel 4a for ~3 years at this point. I had to replace it some time last year because I had lost my original in a lake. T-Mobile gave me whichever lower-end Pixel there was at the time and I immediately gave it back because of the offputting amount of warmth it produced doing very little. When the time does come to...

Screen is completely black, so good luck with the USB OTG mouse trick. Phone is a Galaxy A8 (2018).
