I’m kind of new to android. F-droid is kind of hard to navigate. some apps doesn’t load their thumbnails and some doesn’t even have them at all. It’s hard to decide which ones are good other than how recent It’s updated.

What I need atm:

  • Music player
  • Writing / Note taking
  • Diary app
  • VPN?
  • Maps
  • Messenger app
  • Social media / Fediverse frontends (if it exists)
  • Peertube client (to upload and manage videos)
  • Reminders / To do list app

You can recommend me any android apps that might be useful.

      Do you happen to know the story of Organic Maps? It says it is by the maps.me founders but how come they didn’t stick with maps.me?

        Not really, is there some interesting fact to know?

        works well as audio player for me as well. The home-screen widget that it provides is very useful.

          I had VLC on my phone and used it for video. I tried a bunch of different foss audio players for local files and finally thought to try out the audio tab in VLC. Now it is my go to.

        It’s both video and audio player.
