Preparing a megathread about android FOSS apps - Part Four (Keyboards, Notes, Maps and Music Players)

dez@lemmy.ml to Open Source@lemmy.ml – 207 points –

This thread is ONLY to talk about Keyboards, Notes, Maps and Music Players. I add video Music Players because probably some people want to know about good FOSS alternatives.

Little context

::: spoiler spoiler Why not build a megathread with the best and most reliable FOSS apps too help someone who want to join on the bright side of open source?

We (because this is not from me, this is from us) need to share thoughts, ideas and all things you want to say. Dont be shy. Upvote the comments you like and agree; disagree and tell why you disagree. This is will be different from others threads because this need a proper user opinion, and your opinions will be VERY important to build this. In short, your opinions and thoughts will be the fundamental source to build this.

I will read ALL comments to build this. Even if this has a million comments, I’m going to waste time reading it. Whatever it takes.

Your opinions about it are CRUCIAL and FUNDAMENTAL, because your opinions is the main-base to build the megathread. :::

Please, consider share your ideas and thoughts about apps on previous threads. Your opinions are really important to build final megathread. You can upvote or downvote posts so that comments gain strength and agreement between the community.

  • Keyboard: OpenBoard (works great, support anonymous mode, my layout, emojis, paste, move cursor using finger over space button, longer deletes using finger over backspace)

  • Music Player: Odyssey (I don't rely on ID3 tags but directory structure instead - there is too little of those players who use it)

  • Music Player: ViMusic (FOSS interface to Youtube Music)

  • Music Player: RadioDroid (for online radio stations)

RiMusic is a maintained fork of ViMusic

I actually have both and experiment with RiMusic. But it seemed less stable for me. Still trying though.
