      I like his Retro Music Player app as well! Both of these are very well designed and beautiful looking apps, so much so I can't believe they're free and open source.

    We need more FOSS apps, no tracking, no shady data collection, no unexpected IAPs... just make sure to donate to the projects you find useful!
    Here are some of my favourites:
    Infinity for Reddit - lightweight Reddit client
    Organic Maps - Offline GPS maps with navigation based on OSM
    NewPipe - Lightweight YT client with a ton of features
    Open Camera - Hands down the best camera app for manual control and tinkering
    Grocy - Self hosted home ERP (stock manager, shopping list, organization, etc)
    Element - Clean and modern Matrix client
    AntennaPod - Podcast client with a really nice UI and lots of features

    Worth considering that if users of open source apps paid for them they would have more and better open source apps. They are free as in free to see the source code and free for anyone skilled to customize, but they costs to develop and keep up to date in an ever evolving tech landscape.

  • @FlammableB

    Opensource apps offer the source code you often don't understand as a common user, but it makes you feel safe because it says an opensource. :D

    I'm keeping my GrapheneOS phone lean and mean and mostly use the provided apps. I added a few that I need to check in on my 91 year old Mom who has dementia, GPS track my motorcycle if it's stolen, etc. These only get privileges when running and GrapheneOS doesn't auto start them at reboot. One open source app I use is OSMand - the Open Street Maps offline GPS navigator.
