A big button application for those with fat fingers and small phones.

Universal crypto password for all applications.

Licaon_Kter · January 6, 2025, 6:59am

Explain how that works?

weizer · January 6, 2025, 7:24am

I’m still thinking through the details, it’s not easy.

I use many aspects of Total Commander. Is there a FLOSS app that comes close?

Licaon_Kter · February 24, 2025, 2:41pm

Ghost Commander | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository in theory

spreadsheet app / app for making tables (LibreOffice Viewer has experimental editing, but the UI adapts badly to smartphones)
sqlite editor like sqlitebrowser for linux
offline translator like Google Translate

petit.boeuf · April 1, 2025, 8:54am

Have you tried Collabora Office ? You have to add that repo to fdroid and then you can download it.

If you search for sqlite in fdroid, you find that app. Doesn’t seems to be able to edit, but it’s a start.

For the translator I don’t use any so I can’t recommand you one among that list.

Licaon_Kter · April 1, 2025, 9:41am

Fennec does that, offline

petit.boeuf · April 1, 2025, 12:00pm

But Fennec can only translate web pages, right ? It cannot translate random text I would write in an input somewhere ?

Licaon_Kter · April 1, 2025, 12:46pm

Open about:translations and use it

Lol, thanks !

Hi. I’m looking for an app to plan intermediate fasting.
I’ve found Interfast on IzzyOnDroid, but it doesn’t seem to work on my end.
Do you know any alternative?
