Standard Notes just joined the Proton family. It’s open source and many say it’s pretty good.

Nice list, thank you.
As for myself, I have a couple of Simple apps such as gallery and calendar.
For example, I used Simple Gallery, because I can’t open gallery folder using gcam while I can with Simple gallery.
And I use Session Messenger, which is not on the list.
Other than that, I use most of what most people here use.
*Can rarely watch video on LibreTube on peer, so I figured out that it’s easier just using NewPipe or PipePipe (NewPipe seems to be having issue with showing comments).
Are you aware that ‘simple apps’ changed ownership?

Yes. As long it’s on F-Droid, I’m not too concerned about that.

But the F-Droid version won’t get any more updates - see here and here - and no longer appears to be available on F-Droid.
Fossify have made forks of the last free versions of the Simple apps. Their fork of Simple Gallery is here
I would recommend replacing any apps you have from SimpleMobileTools and replacing them with the Fossify versions

True, Thanks for reminding me about that.
Yeah, the one I have is the fossify one; my bad, forgot to mention about that.

Send and receive files between Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, and Windows over ad hoc WiFi. No shared network or cell connection required, just two devices with WiFi chips in close range.
Don’t have a flash drive? Don’t have access to a wireless network? Need to move a file larger than 2GB between different filesystems but don’t want to set up a network share? Try it out!

Just wondering about some app like that recently. Thx

Hi, Jim2. My Proton Drive on e/OS doesn’t do that by default. I would like to configure my e/OS to use Proton Drive for images and for backups instead of using Murena for that. Do you (or anyone who reads this) know where there’s a tutorial on how to set that up?
Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.
I’ve been recently looking at why davx/accountmanager webdav mounts have 0 bytes file writes, and saw rclone wrappers work the best.
Rclone is very versatile and speaks Proton Drive too. So the advice goes for most storage services, from S3 / backblaze to murenas or any nextcloud webdav too:
- Round Sync - Rclone for Android | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository (setup task/schedules for sync transfers + behaviour. Supported by seedvault too)
- GitHub - chenxiaolong/RSAF: An Android Storage Access Framework document provider for rclone (gives you the bare SAF mount - as in can be targeted by other Apps, I think Seedvault implicitly)

Hi @luthen25
In the Proton Drive Android app, go to
Menu > Settings > Backup, Photo Backup
Then set Photo Backup to on, and turn on the folders that you want it to back up under the “Upload from” list.
I have it set so it does not use mobile data to backup, and I think I had to disable battery optimization for it to work.
It feels like a win, one of the things that just works, no compromise needed.
Oh man, thank you ! I was looking for that so badly ! Save the UX.
If you’ve got any similar app for dialer, please tell me.
I used QUIK for a while. Currently I use Replify (from App Lounge, Aurora).
