on What are in your opinion "essential" android apps that aren't as popular/talked about? · c/asklemmy · 13 pts · 2yI'm not sure if they're popular or not but I didn't see them mentioned in this thread and I rely on these fantastic open source apps daily: AntennaPod -- podcast app Orgzly -- Todo lists / reminders / notes via org files. Can be synced via syncthing. Aves -- gallery app KeePassDX -- keepass client Prognoza -- weather app Olauncher -- minimalist launcher Honourable mention: Harmonic -- hacker News app. Not "essential" by any means but it's quite good. Edit: added prognoza and olauncher
