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....

Years ago I used NewPipe but when I wanted a little more from my app I switched the ReVanced until it started giving me more and more issues. For the past 3 months or so I’ve been using a cracked Youtube Premium app, but now it’s dropping every video after about a minute. So what’s everyone using these days to avoid all of...

In Youtuber’s hand-folding test (live stream), the Razr Plus broke after 126,364 folds (hinge gave up after ~44k folds) while the Z Flip survived 273,316 folds (but lost ability to stay fully open after 223,000 folds) and is still going right now in the live stream....

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

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’m looking for an alternative to “sleep as android” as its not FOSS....

A couple of times I’ve been presented with notifications from commercial apps downloaded from the Play store that are very clearly promotional material. Thankfully, Android allows me to block particular notification channels if I swipe the notification lightly and hit the gear icon. I can disable the particular “Promotion”...

Hi everyone. I’m close to buying a Unihertz Jelly Star (this nugget here). One of the last things keeping me away from ordering is my concern with typing quality. (“Say what, on a three inch screen??”)...

Which is the best phone company in terms of consistently putting out good phone products.

The Google Pixel 8 and 8 Pro have leaked extensively in the last few months. These phones should officially debut in just over a month since Google typically announces new Pixels in early October. Leaked renders and hands-on images have already given us a good look at the Pixel 8’s design. Now, Google itself has accidentally...

I’m curious if anyone’s come across a list of “power” or “professional” apps for Android. I mean things like Termux, Audio Evolution, or PowerDirector, which provide functionality that you would normally need a computer for. I’m being purposefully broad so that I can discover more cool apps, but generally I mean...

I know that GrapheneOS has a lot of security features that make it basically impossible to compromise your phone. And that it has a lot of control over permissions and has some privacy features. But it also has a Google Services compatibility that would allow you to use Google services, which would allow Google to harvest a lot...

Does anyone know of a good privacy respecting (preferably FOSS) parental control app for Android? I’m trying to convince a friend to get a Pixel with GrapheneOS as their kids next phone but they won’t do it unless it let’s them control certain things....

Hi, I’m wondering myself is root useful or not ? In which case it can be useful ? And Root with magisk is unsecure ?
