I’ve recently decided to switch out my Playstore apps for Open Source Apps as they’re usually Ad Free and much less bloated. Can we use this thread to help people find open source android apps?

I’ll start

K-9 mail, a great email alternative that let’s you have multiple users logged in

Red Moon - A customisable night light app which lets you adjust the colour and settings including Colour, opacity and Darkness

Swift Notes - Note taking app

    Fritter as a Twitter client alternative Does fritter still work after twitter cut the APIs?

      Some of the functionality was lost, such as clicking through the trending section to see trending tweets:

      For the most part though, it works for reading tweet threads and viewing media, which is all I use it for now. If you’re installing Fritter through F-Droid, you have to install the beta- the old stable version was completely broken by Twitter’s API changes.

        Do you need to login with a Twitter account? Or is it still possible to just ‘lurk’? I uninstalled fritter when the APIs were turned off.

          You can still use it to just read tweets, but I’ve never been a heavy Twitter user in the first place so I’m not sure if anything major is broken in Fritter beta.
