Here is a list of my favorite android apps. Feel free to post your own.
- F-Droid (app store)
- RethinkDNS (firewall/dns)
- KeePassDX (offline password manager)
- NewPipe or FreeTube (YouTube)
- Ghost Commander (file manager)
- Heliboard (keyboard)
- Termux (linux terminal emulator)
- AntennaPod (podcasts)
- Aegis (2 factor authentication)
- Mull (firefox based web browser)
- OsmAnd (offline navigation)
- Trail Sense (hiking companion)
Anyone heard of grayjay? Great multi-platform video player.
I love it and payed for it.
Same!
How did you configure the RethinkDNS. I tried it but I don’t know how to configure the DNS not to block all my internet traffic.
The dns only option can be selected by tapping the arrow icon next to the start/stop button.
Firewall -> universal firewall rules. Or you can run it in dns mode only if you dont want to block any apps.
I tried the universal firewall rules and apart from block port 80, I didn’t manage to configure it in a way to not lose connectivity. I also use Adguard DNS, which I set manually on my phone, so the DNS only mode isn’t very beneficial for me either.
- NewPipe
- Breezy Weather
- Secure Camera GitHub / Google Play
I’ve stopped using Mull because always seems to have issue on my phone + it only gets update once a month if you are lucky.
Try Tubular instead of newpipe There are more functions like sponsorblock
Whats wrong with regular firefox?
Nothing wrong with Firefox, it’s my main browser
On Android, Mull offers more extensions, unless that’s changed recently
I think they offer the same But you can install any extension you want https://www.androidpolice.com/install-add-on-extension-mozilla-firefox-android/
I just found Futo keyboard. Works very well and has offline voice input that works great.
How does it compare to HeliBoard?
I did use F-Droid, now I use Obtanium. I use Mull Browser as well, but I really like Fulguris Browser better
I love Fulguris
You didn’t specify open source so I’ll post a mixture…
GrayJay (YouTube and other streaming video) RiMusic (YT music streamer) Easy Noise (white noise for sleeping) Peristyle (wallpaper changer)
