I'm coming from Apple Mail and apparently I've been spoiled because I can't find a mail app I like. I have 3 Google accounts but I only want TWO of them to show in this app. That's why I'm not using the Gmail app. I want my two personal and my work email to be separate. The Gmail app will allow me to look at 1 at a time or all of them at the same time. Outlook lets me load two accounts but search won't sort by date so that's out the window. I just tried thunderbird and it is only letting me search the past 30 days or so? Any app that will let me do all this or do I just need to go back to my iPhone? Lol

I really hate having to switch my text app to Google Chat or whatever it's called. Is there an app that doesn't use Google accounts that I can use for texting instead?

I'm looking for one that has a good UI. I don't really care about features, playlists, yada yada, I just want a good looking player. Maybe something that looks a bit retro? also I would LOVE a good looking vinyl disc typa player. I love apple music's player and stuff, shucks that we don't have anything like that (or if there is, I'm not aware of it)

currently using AIMP

I am not gonna close the app that's using the camera if that's the answer because I need that app to keep running.

Read this first because I think I made the bottom text sound confusing: I need the flashlight to turn on while I am using a camera. I need it to be all possible on android. No pc or root. Also it has to be able to be mapped to my volume up button. I used keymapper 4.1.0 before but after upgrading to 4.2.1, it stopped working even after going back to 4.1.0. Also I don't know if it's possible but if it is, I would like it to be without wireless debugging turned on or USB debugging since it drains battery and I am using this function for work but if that's not possible, I dont care. I also did see shell command possibility in keymapper which probably will work so if there is a command for that, I can do that too but I think I need the usb or wireless debugging enabled so maybe I could that after looking at other less battery draining options. (There is a "standard" execution mode that MAYBE uses one of debugging and there is "ADB" which needs wireless debugging) Maybe there is an app that does that? I don't know but whatever works.

I am trying to enable a flashlight while another app is using the camera which I am using. Its the Walmart GIF app but I don't think it really matters since it doesn't work in any app that has a camera open. I tried before using keymapper on pixel 9a which worked with the 4.1.0 version from play store which I then copied 2 so I had 3 key mappers but then I upgraded them all to 4.2.1 and it stopped working so I went back to 4.1.0 only on the original one and it still doesn't work so I guess I can't use that anymore. any other way? I want to be able to do it using my volume up button because I have it set up at open the scanner, turn on flashlight and I do what I need to do and it turns off the flashlight by itself but I can't do it anymore. Any ways to do it?

I've been looking for an offline navigation app for some time but have not find one that does everything i need it to do.

I will use it mainly for walking and public transportation in (foreign) cities and occasionally for biking routes.

Currently I'm using OsmAnd which has al the functionality that i need/want and it would be perfect for me if it was not for the abysmal map rendering speed and the rout calculation that is very slow or not working at all for longer routes (80+ kilometers).

So basically I'm looking for OsmAnd app but then much better performance in both rendering and route calculation. Public transportation navigation/routing is a must.

And yes I've looked at Google maps but

1. It's Google
2. It's not offline, public transportation is not supported in offline downloaded maps.
3. Half the UI is filled with (sponsored) crap like shops, hotels and other stuff I don't need nor asked for.

So please suggest something that is not Google maps.

I've looked for alternatives, but the features I like from it seem to be divided among different apps.

These are the features I'm looking for:

• Text formatting options. Nothing crazy but at least italics/bold font, text size and colour, and highlighting.
• The ability to do checklists whenever, wherever, not just as separate notes, and without taking away the ability to write other text.
• The ability to draw or sketch wherever in a note.
• A note list widget.
• Also, the ability to select just bits of text to copy or cut, not necessarily the whole thing... I didn't think I'd need to list such a basic "feature", but I tried one alternative where you just couldn't do that, so I wanted to be sure...

All these things together made Samsung Notes a comfortable app to use for me. Does anyone know of a suitable substitute that doesn't sacrifice any of these features?​ Thanks.

Hi, all. I'm looking for a timer I can schedule like an alarm clock. So, every weekday at a certain time it'll automatically start. Preferably with a widget. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

My Honor 70 will not be getting any further updates so I am looking for the following apps to switch and use (they are all basic). Also, I want to avoid Google apps. (without ads)

- Clock app

- Calendar app

- Weather

- Phone and contacts

- Gallery

An app to alert me about new releases out on VoD/streaming?

ive got an android phone but theres a specific app that i want to install that doesnt have a web browser form or anything its called Unspace??? can someone help or let me know what i can possibly do?

I used to have that could play many, many live TV channels. It was called Unlimited. It was

an app actually like a IPTV but was already setup. Anyone have any idea where l can find it?

I don't even used that much other than playing some games, chatting on discord and vids that's just less than a minute

I hear it's being discontinued in a couple of days and I really hate the idea of using even more Google products. I don't really want RCS either.

Has anyone had any luck with alternative texting apps that preserve the existing texts?

Looking for app that let's you darken your brightness more than normal, letting your screen completely black

I'm currently in dispute with a company over warranty and protection plan I purchased for my Dishwasher. The company has refused to answer my questions over email so I can have "written" records. They now say I can only call them. When I did of course on their end it is recorded. My first question was "Can I have a copy of the recording" They said that"The recording is for quality assurance and for their records only." So I want to make sure I also have a recording for my use. Looking for a free or cheap app. I haven't found any that has at least a 4 star or better. any suggestions?

Im broke and i can't keep buying the premium anymore

I need some suggestions on music apps that are as spotify or better

I've been using Wispr Flow as part of my daily workflow, but I'm looking for a free alternative that works well on both Windows and Android.

My use case isn't meeting transcription. I mainly use it for:

• Recording notes while reading books, along with my interpretations and ideas.
• Brainstorming LinkedIn posts by speaking my thoughts out loud.
• Capturing ideas for content I'm writing for clients before I forget them.

What I like about Wispr Flow is that I can speak naturally instead of typing everything.

I'm not necessarily looking for an app with every AI feature. Accurate voice-to-text, decent punctuation, and a smooth workflow are more important to me.

Has anyone found a good free setup or combination of apps that works across Windows and Android? Open-source options are welcome too.
