@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.

For offline non-tracking maps:
@organicmaps or #osmand@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.
@fdroid
@kirschner @fdroid ImagePipe to strip off Meta data from images and öffi since years one of the best apps for German public transport
(It’s hard to share links to f droid apps from the app itself…)
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.

@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
@fdroid@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 ;)
Ever hear of KiwiX? You can use it to browse Wikipedia articles without data. It also works with some other sites as well
@kirschner
#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.
My favorite:

@brokenix @kirschner @fdroid @delta @AntennaPod A keyboard app that encrypts messages which you can then send with any app.
https://github.com/amnesica/KryptEY@islamicaudiobooks @kirschner @fdroid @delta @AntennaPod vi music , rethink is amazing. Kryptey is cool too , except that idk how to disable vibration for tapping ut. Thats a drain , is there a clear reason to why is this tricky? Ir i should just recheck settings?
@brokenix @islamicaudiobooks @fdroid @delta @AntennaPod Thanks. Did not know (or forgot) about rethink.
@kirschner @islamicaudiobooks @fdroid @delta @AntennaPod there too
what ll your firewall be to access <sup>this</sup> from a country which the admin has blocked
@islamicaudiobooks @brokenix @fdroid @delta @AntennaPod Thanks for pointing out KryptEY
@kirschner @islamicaudiobooks @fdroid @delta @AntennaPod yes except that I ve no contact , who want to do an encrypted chat with me outside #signal
This could be on my for not using it in a way, which is convenient for others.
It has happened , when I encrypted my twitter DM , emails with #gpg , without fully understanding gpg and I had to step back from that. #keyoxide has brought some hope , but I am yet to get there, where I can use it efficiently even for work
