If, like me, you've relied on Fennec as a more tolerable version of Firefox for Android, you may have gotten some bad news in the latest F-droid update cycle.

Fennec has fallen so far behind on updates that serious security patches implemented by Mozilla in Firefox haven't been applied to the fork, and Fennec is therefore still breachable.

The developer responded two weeks ago that they were "short on time", and there still isn't a new, secure version available. This appears to be due to that recurring weak link in open source development: small teams, confronted by real life demands like time and money?

I currently use Gboard and unexpected keyboard

It's hard to switch always, I expecting a external app like Samsung have to trigger the modifier like ctrl, alt , win , meta , fn

Also I using text expanders like textexpand, typing hero

Any work around solution is also useful for me

Bonus points if it can be activated automatically for certain sites.

I'm tired to find bloated content everywhere.

I'm looking for something that "a child would find easy to learn", possibly a virtual keyboard with an obvious "start recording" button that does that, recording your keys on the selected Track, then allowing easy playback so you can listen to it.

I have a custom ROM (DivestOS); I don't have access to the Play Store.

The latest version of Honkai: Star Rail is out, but Aurora installs the bundled version of the APK which always throws an error "Not enough storage space to install required resources" (there is enough space).

In the past, I've used APK Mirror to download the standalone version of the APK. But the latest update on APK Mirror only offers the bundled version.

I've tried APK Pure and APK Combo to install an XAPK version, but that always fails too.

So, does anyone know where I might find the standalone version of the app, or how to resolve the bundled app error?

Thanks in advance.

I don't know when I'm going to be going to the store. I sometimes forget that I have a list on my phone, too.

is there an app that can have a reminder go off when I reach the store?

I am having some trouble in picking one of the habit trackers available on F-Droid/Izzy-on-droid. Which one would you recommend or maybe you know another good free/libre one (from other repos or sources in general)?

The ones in my scope thus far are:

TimePlanner has also caught my eye but it seems to be quite a bit more than a simple habit tracker

I just need one that can add up few items for eg. daily expenses etc. And should pop-up keyboard automatically as soon as I touch a cell.

No need for complex formula support or fancy graphics. Single sheet is also OK.

Edit: I am looking for something like this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.thinctank.cellcalc

This one doesn't popup keyboard so needs two touches to enter data. And I do not know how to access stored data!

Update! Newpipe is working again after an uninstall and reinstall just now!

--

I've been using newpipe for 3 years and it's never failed completely like this.

It's been a few days now that zero videos work and newpipe hasn't released an update or anything on their blog.

Cleared cache. Uninstalled reinstalled, reset phone, no difference.

Is new pipe still working for other people? I have an uninstalled reinstalled

Hi all,

I’ve recently moved to pixel/graphene and I’m looking for a more open replacement for spotify.

I installed a bunch from F-droid to test (newpipe, pipepipe, libretube, RiMusic, SpMp, SimpmMusic, InnertTune, ViMusic, etc)

I'm testing them all but I'm a bit overwhelmed with choice.

I've heard of 'cracked spotify' apks but not sure what the deal is with those or how trusted they are

I’d like to find something that lets me control the music from my desktop, either through KDE connect or a standalone app. FOSS / F-droid preferred.

I plan to start maintaining my library locally but I still need some kind of streaming solution.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts

Something to disable image loading when not on Wi-Fi, for instance? Reddit is Fun had that option, and I have very limited data so that really helped me out.

it's not open source, hasn't been updated for years (though the developer did update all the dictionaries for Android 14 recently) but its customization options just can't be beat.

I use swipe left and right for delete and space and auto-correct with a dictionary I've been adding to for years. It allows you to add custom emoticons and words, it has a тяαทรƒ๑я๓ functions to add ⓥⓐⓡⓘⓞⓤⓢ GIᙏᘻIᑥKS to text... It has an option for swiping, too, though that's instead of the swiping for backspace and space. You can also edit which letters have what symbols above it.

Here's what my keyboard looks like. Notice the handy copy, paste, home, end, undo and redo buttons, too. Which are also completely customizable. Haven't found anything that truly does everything Multiling O does.

I do wish it was open-sourced though, if only so others could update it again...

Hi. Decided to create this list of questions because every time I though I was ready for interviews I was not and sometimes failed to answer even the simplest questions.

Contributions are welcome!

Just found my new keyboard! (keyboard.futo.org)
submitted 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) by gedaliyah@lemmy.world to c/androidapps@lemmy.world

I came across this purely by accident, but it checks pretty much all of my boxes for a good keyboard:

✅ It is simple, beautiful, and customizable. (I like to use AMOLED black, and increase the height a bit)

✅ It has built in offline voice typing. I had been using sayboard for this which was not bad, but so far this is a little quicker and more accurate.

✅ It has easy to use settings (I used ASK for years despite the mess of the settings)

✅ ~~It's FOSS~~. Edit: Apparently, it's currently under a development license that limits certain types of use. The source code is open, and the stated intent is to make it fully FOSS when it is completed.

✅ It has swipe typing. I was using heliboard with a gesture typing library added, but it'snice to have it built in.

It has some interesting features like using an adjustable LLM for text prediction. It will be really interesting to see how it shapes out.

Is there an app that offers good quality translation offline? I usually use TranslateYou which is a fantastic frontend for various services. When I'm traveling, I don't always have a network connection when I want a translation.

Edit: The answer to this is RTranslator. The latest update that transformed it into the most powerful translator I've ever used came a couple days ago.

Is there a visual voicemail app that works well and is free or reasonably priced? I've been using Voxist on my pixel phone, but the charges are too much to really justify ($5-10/month for 30/100 transcriptions). I'd be willing to make a one time payment or a small subscription for unlimited voicemails.

I've been using HeliBoard lately as my primary input. It's based on AOSP keyboard and includes a few quality of life improvements over say, OpenBoard.

One feature is possible gesture typing. The setting reads: "Provide a native library to enable gesture typing." I am not sure what a gesture library is or how to get one. Does anyone have an insight on this?

I currently use Nekogram X but it hasn't been updated in a while, what is everyone else using?

So I'm no fan of cryptocurrencies, and I'm dismayed at how many crypto wallet crap apps are in the main F-droid repo. Between the environmental and social effects of cryptocurrency, I think it at least would warrant an antifeature flag.

I've looked in vain for apps that allow me to at least filter out keywords or categories that I don't care about in the first place, but no luck.

Is there a general purpose repo with regular updates that also won't promote cryptocurrency by hosting apps for that purpose?
