ITT: We recommend Android apps, and call each other faggots for recommending different shit.

Games are for faggots
>>53998270
klwp also for ricing
>>53998176
Why not ... state some reasons too?
Take image viewer or keyboard, I have no idea why people aren't happy with the stock one and would love to know why using another one, without trying 1541515 apps. Also the fuck is wrong with google calendar?
>2048
+1 for that, a great time killer.
>>53998270

+1 here too, looks damn nice and should save battery on OLED.

Im out of stuff to do on android, riced and stopped playing games outside of pokemon.
One question i do have is how do i extract icons from an icon app?
>>53998176
Don't you have playstore?
>>53999422
a few amount of people escape the botnet with custom roms that dont have gapps
>Taiwanese animated motion shows
MX Player
>>53999505
Yet they have sim cards in their phone that enable them to be pinpointed at any time.
>>53999553
yes? that still beats google spyware
Why are android apps so boring? It's just the same old utilities and stock app replacements. Nothing innovative ever gets made.
>>53999608
God i hate it when my cat does this.
Anyway, what do you expect? the cool stuff is for root only and theres only so much a phone can do. What do YOU think would be a good idea?
Its the same with games
you have your bejeweled clones, age of empire clones, endless running clones and thats about it All with micro transactions (RIP Pokemon)
>>53999657
>the cool stuff is for root only
What cool stuff? Myself and most people I know of only root for the adblockers, titanium backup and miscellaneous tweaks in xposed, exactly the type of utility crap I was talking about.
>What do YOU think would be a good idea?
Frankly I'd switch to iOS's ecosystem if it wasn't my tinfoil discouraging me.
>games
lol
>>53999721
i use toor for multi clicker, for forced vr display and for setting cpu clock speeds although im not sure if you need root for that.
Why would you switch? i dont get your point.
also why not include games? i made it a small point as well, some peoeple like them.
And i meant good idea for a utility app or app in general, what do you think would be a useful one?
For navigation use Osmand~ FROM F-DROID, NOT GOOGLE PLAY.
The f-droid version doesn't have the download restriction the free GooglePlay version has and seems to run smoother on my old tablet. In general try to use fdroid apps if possible.

>Why would you switch? i dont get your point.
For their better ecosystem? I don't see what's not to get. While android users are busy looking for yet another replacement for their file manager or music player iOS get cool, fresh shit like composer's sketchpad
>>53998176
So which is the best browser, objectively. Using opera atm but ..eh
>>53999873

Holy shit, this looks cool, though probably needs iPad Pro to really use it fully.

aside from that, are you trolling or not? literaally everythings stock, you dont want people using different keyboards, dont know what ricing is
>>54000051

It's sad. I really like(d) ES file explorer and still do, but that shit is nasty. Also their recent changes are gross.

>TotalCommander, it's lightweight and has easy to understand UI. It's proprietary sadly. Haven't found FOSS file manager that is better though.
>>Image Viewer
>I just use the stock gallery app or the file browser. There is GLImager Viewer on F-Droid, which is based on AOSP Gallery app - it's barebones, but functional and lightweight.
>>Music Player
>Vanilla Music, VLC
>>Web browser
>Firefox, only browser that lets you install
proper addons. If you don't have G Play services, try Aurora build from Mozilla website: it has built-in updater.
>>Calendar
>Etar, if the stock calendar on your phone isn't good enough. Etar is better than Google calendar, but LG calendar is better than both imo.

>just use the browser. Fucking Gmail reverts to the old html layout in Fennec though, probably because Google doesn't like Fennec. (changing the user agent to Chrome will give you the normal gmail layout, lol)

If stock works fine why use others ricing senpai :^
Btw I used SwiftKey in past.
Will never use again.

Can't you just block it with adaway or something?

Why? I'm using it now seems GOAT. Is it botnet? If it is how bad is it? Do I care? I really like it.
>>54000220
It was buggy in the past.
Never tried again
>>54000220
Well, it's owned by Microsoft now.
I block the app's Internet access after downloading the language packs I need.
Where do I get dictionaries for hacker's keyboard? F-droid says there are no matching applications.

Any recommended phone apps? The wiki recommends Snap which is great but you have to buy it (or just use it offine). What about some free as in freedom and free beer ones? More than anything I just want to be able to have a 3x3 grid onscreen.
