We are excited to announce that F-Droid has been awarded $396,044 from the Open Technology Fund’s FOSS Sustainability Fund. This grant is specifically designed to support free and open-source software (FOSS) projects in addressing long-term sustainability challenges, and we are honored to be among the recipients.

been looking for more useful apps so figured I'd ask.

Preferably something that doesn't require login or registration. An online app would work too, I suppose.

It seems Hypatia ended/paused its development. Also donations are not accepted. 😟

Found Translate You for text translation, but it uses online services. Is there any offline app for that?

Sayboard allows offline speech to text translation. It's quite cool.
It supports English and seems useful.
Was looking to see if there are models for Malayalam and other languages.

Saw a Malayalam vosk GMM model in gitlab. Tho, it can't be imported. It seems to need a chain training model.

Does anyone know any resources on that?
Or any other app that can do it?

Or is there some way using Termux or so?

IronFox is a fork of Divested Computing Group's Mull Browser, based on Mozilla Firefox. Our goal is to continue the legacy of Mull by providing a free and open source, privacy and security-oriented web browser for daily use.

The issue (June 2024) and discussion : https://github.com/daniebeler/pixelix/issues/64

It allows to launch exported activities from various apps and helps to create useful shortcuts

2 examples where I find it to be quite useful:
1. Quick Record shortcut for Audio Recorder

You can directy search for the app in Activity manager, open it and create a a shortcut for the Recording activity.

2. Shortcut to open Android/data folder in the native Files app

1. Search for and open the Files app in Activity Manager and choose the Launch with parameters option for the FilesActivity
2. Action, choose ACTION_VIEW
3. Data = content://com.android.externalstorage.documents/document/primary%3AAndroid%2Fdata%2Forg.thunderdog.challegram%2Ffiles%2Fdocuments or any other directory you like
4. Mime type, choose vnd.android.document/directory

You can then launch the activity with the parameter.
This will be recorded in History(the clock sign). You can long-press the entry and create a Shortcut.

Do you have any other cases or ideas where this would be usedul? Please do share them here.

On a tangent, Material files allows making shortcuts to files and folders. Markor, text editor app, allows the same too.

WG Tunnel seems to be missing on f-droid, does anyone know what's going on?

The only one I found by searching is way out of date and doesn't seem to work. But it feels like there's got to be one out there somewhere

If you're reading this I hope you're having a lovely day :)

Update: switch to Ironfox, the maintainer is legit and the app is now even on Accrescent.

The DivestOS developer Tavi has stopped his work on the project and all apps.

When I use my GPS app or I want to use my Bluetooth headphones I need to turn on those services, but only in those scenarios, once I'm done using them I don't want them to be always on, is there a way to automatically turn them off is they are not being used?

I tried Tasker but the "Turn off Bluetooth if not being used" profile wasn't working at all.
