Idk why I never heard of this one before but it got an update recently so it appeared in my Droid-ify feed and now I’m sharing it. Hopefully someone finds it useful.
you probably heard of “simple dialer”. Fossify apps are forks of simple (because simple is sold to an advertisement company)
long story short 👆
Damn, I didn’t know! When did that happen? By the way, I’ve just noticed that the Simple apps haven’t been updated for about a year.
Is there some obstacle to writing them? Special SDK privileges or anything like that? Seems like a good thing to degoogle if possible.
I have no idea but apparently nobody makes dialer apps. What’s even more weird is that SMS and contacts apps are way less rare.
Contacts and dialer should maybe be merged. It’s nice to be able to call someone and make notes in that person’s contact page during the call.
Don’t remember seeing contacts and dialer being completely merged. Maybe it’s for performance reasons idk.
There is Open Contacts which also acts as a dialer if you want it too. It creates its own database which could be useful if you don’t want other apps to have your contacts.
It works fine, I use that or Koler
iirc, out of the box android contacts was also the dialer
We have supercomputers in our phones. They can handle it.
Wrong approach, mister/miss.
What bothers me is that there is no way to answer a call using the phone when BT earphones are connected. It’s 2024, how’s that possible? It happens that I leave them in another room and I may forget that they are connected and when I answer I don’t ear anything, damnit!
By the way, even though I’ve always wandered why changing the dialer, I’m gonna try it!
Use this as daily driver, can recommend
