Is there any closed source android app that you wish had a good open source alternative?

federino@programming.dev to Open Source@lemmy.ml – 207 points –

I'm currently looking to develop an open source app that can help somebody. I'm currently out of ideas, so I'd like to heard if from you guys.

Sorry if it seems to lazy to ask for ideas like that, I just thought that I could do it since the result will be a free app.

Have you tried the fossify dialer?

Their whole set of apps is nice.

I tried it back when it was under the simple tools developer. I couldn't get in to his apps (aside from the calendar) for some reason. They all felt half-baked. It's nice to see that the fossify forks are getting some love, I'll check it out again.

I like the fossify forks much better than the simple tools, I used to only use the gallery (and even for that I switched to Aves) now I have many of them as default. Dialer is nice, though the integration could flow better.
