Even though the android version of it has been discontinued, Syncthing remains my top FOSS app. Not sure how it will behave in the future but v1.28.1 works well for now.
Markor - markdown notes that just works
Organic Maps - someone found a way to make open source maps not terrible, and it isn’t.
K9…derbird - mine still says K-9 even though it updated, good mail client.
OSS Weather - tells you the weather, and literally nothing else. Perfection.
OP, thank you so much for Weather Master! I was using Clima but they lack so many things I would always check websites.
My list:
- ExifEraser - Erase metadata from pictures
- Catima - Loyalty Card & Ticket Manager (alternative to Google Wallet)
I can’t totally remember when I found these, but they’re relatively fresh on my phone. Couldn’t live without them now.
- Audile - song recognition
- Findmydevice - lost phone recovery
- Metro - visually pleasing music player
- Paperless Mobile - manage and interact with paperless-ngx servers
- Photok - secure photo storage for sensitive media
Thx for the paperless mobile share, didn’t had an idea about it’s existence!
Fossify gallery, FreeOTP, Markor text editor, and maybe Jami if I can get it to work on other phones. FreeOTP might have been late 2023 when I got my current phone, but close enough. I’m not sure whether I used Termux before that, on my old phone. Oh yes, Flash Alert, I’m surprised if that isn’t standard in Android. It flashes the camera led when the phone rings. That makes it much easier to find the phone if you’re not sure where it is, and it is face down. It would be great if it also flashed the screen.
I’m not switching to Thunderbird I’m sticking with K-9
Aren’t they the same now?
Yes and no
Power Ampache 2 + Ampache/Nextcloud. It’s a client for the Ampacheb music server, looks gorgeous, works great and has excellent support.

I’m late but thank you so much for making me aware of Obtainium! I’m trying to pull away from Google as much as one can on a Samsung device, which means apps from all different sources.
