Abandoned, still connects to Sentry. Upstream PR for that still open & no response from the Owner, which is why F-Droid team fixed it from their side.

Looks modern with reasonable size. @shuvashish76: Opinions? If everything is right, we can replace Binary Eye with it. The UI/UX of Binary Eye hasn't been improved in the past few years.

I think the only issue I have with this app is that the Internet features are enabled by default (ie. “Query remote API automatically” is enabled by default) which shouldn't be for any reason. Let me explain a bit in case you haven't actually tried the app:

The app has “Open Food Facts” API enabled by default. It's not like that people only scans for food-related barcode. In a super shop, you can scan barcodes related to food, beauty, music — anything. So, it's not ideal to have it enabled anyway. Besides, after scanning the barcode, there's already an option to fetch results using one of the APIs. So, I don't see why this option should be enabled or query automatically by default. If it's intended to be one of the primary or highlighted features, it should be highlighted/featured during the first run (and prompt user to enable it) instead of enabling it by default.

OK. There are a few other minor issues:

  1. Backup allowed but it didn't specify the contents to back up
  2. No network-security-config present in the manifest (possibly with PKP)
  3. Non-exported/private activities aren't marked as so

Root

  1. AccA (inactive) : IMO probably the best manager. Everything works as expected, doesn't need frequent updates. Feature complete? Front-end of acc & djs which are being activity developed.
  2. BCL : In maintenance mode, works as expected. Muntashir knows which one is better for general users as he is the maintainer of it.
  3. Battery Tool : Save battery by stopping apps that are running in the background. I don't think this should be the function of a Battery manager category app especially with root access.

No root
We don't have many choice when it comes to battery managers without root for obvious reasons.

  1. Batterybot Pro (inactive) : shows temperature, voltage.., conditional alarms, notifications, battery state logs, estimate approx. time remaining etc features. It has lot of useful features for non-rooted device but it's not truly a battery manager.
  2. SaveTuner : This is probably best for non-rooted devices as it works with ADB permission. I'm not sure what it does with "Firewall" feature.

I would suggest BCL for root mode. Battery Tool is like Greenify but not really that effective.

I've used BatteryBot Pro. Good for statistics, but as you said, it doesn't really manage battery. I've never used SaveTuner, so I'm not sure how it works. I'll look into this.

I think yetCalc is the best among the candidates. But I'm yet to find a calculator capable of replacing my favourite Calculator++ (I wish somebody will continue the project).

Etar supports multiple offline calendars though you don't get as frequent updates as SCP. SCP paid on playstore vs Etar free. Both project active & stable enough for daily use. SCP is their 2nd popular (based on GH stars) app from SMT, so I know a lots of users use it. Need to use it for longer time for proper review. Give us your review @DodoLeDev

Etar calendars are visible to other apps e.g Tasks, no such feature for SCP. SCP events visible to that app only.

This wasn't considered because this is not something the app should do. It should be managed by a separate calendar provider (e.g. DecSync). Calendar, contacts, etc. in Android is divided into providers and clients for giving users the freedom to choose their favourite clients, and ideally, these clients should never be installed in the system partition (should be installed as user apps during initial setup). There was such a minimal OS called Magma Moonshine (only 4/5 launcher apps) which, unfortunately, was discontinued due to lack of time.

So... Should we keep both apps, or remove Etar from the list?

I think Etar should be removed in favour of SCP. Etar has some good features but it's still less appealing than SCP in terms of features that a typical user's looking for.

AFAIK, Simple Dialer is the only dialer app which is able to disable proximity sensor, and that was a game-changer for one of my smartphones which has a broken proximity sensor!

  • React-native app, heavy size
  • Nunti uses system webview vs Feeder phrases web texts/images into the app.
  • The welcome wizard suggests Topics & News in other languages. @DodoLeDev What's the source of their suggestions?
