According to you, which one is the best for downloading with thumbnails? I mean the picture that comes with audio file.

Back in the day, I used Seal, ytdlnis, NewPipe, PowerTube. Currently, I'm using ytdlnis, but sometimes I face the "could not download" problem. It's kind of annoying. Although there is an option for cookies, I have never used it before. I feel a bit lazy to use it hehe.

Anyway, according to you, which one feels the best? Which one do you use?

Seal, SealPlus, ytdlnis, NewPipe, PowerTube, or anything else? Feel free to suggest apps or solutions.

Hi everyone,
I built a completely free and open-source alarm app for heavy sleepers who instinctively swipe away normal alarms. It's called Android-SSTV-Alarm. Plz give it a try and provide some feedback using the issue tab.

Instead of playing a standard ringtone, this app forces your brain to wake up by making you decode a Slow-Scan Television (SSTV) signal to turn it off. (to human ear it's just some random noise, but don't worry you phone will handle it)

I haven't submitted it to F-Droid just yet, but you can check out the source code, see screenshots, and download the APK directly from the GitHub Releases page:

*Some of my friends said this app really helped them wake up in the morning.

GlassWire unfortunately does not count data usage of apps it cannot identify which includes stuff like work folders, samsung's "Secure Folder" thing and many other similar features. That unfortunately makes the data shown quite misleading. While the app, Traffic Light, cannot link that info to specific apps either, imo it's important to be transparent and still show that that data has been used.

Also, the app has a bunch of other features such as a persistent network speed (live-)notification, extensive data plan tracking and widgets.

Actually, the title is a bit of a lie, as that was not the core intention of making the project, but I've made previous posts attacking Internet Speed Meter and the app does much more :D

Posting my own thing. Roam is a GPS speedometer I made mainly so I could leave it running in the car without slowly burning in the OLED. It shifts the readout around the screen every few minutes, the background is properly black, and the colour drifts slowly over time instead of sitting on one hue.

Figured this sub might like the internals. It doesn't even declare the INTERNET permission, and there are no ads or analytics anywhere. The only permission it asks for is location, for the GPS fix. No AndroidX, no Play Services, and the dependency list is empty. Release APK is about 33 KB. AGPL-3.0.

I thought Reddit backed off on this, but honestly it's worse than ever now. Literally 20-30 seconds after opening a page in my mobile browser, this massive full screen pop up blocks EVERYTHING.

I genuinely do not want to install the official app.

Even after wiping my browser data and trying a brand new browser, it still pops up and covers the whole f*ckig screen.

I’m stubborn and I refuse to download the app, but this is getting unusable. Is there an extension, reddit client, or literally any workarounds to bypass this?

This aggressive pushing is honestly about to make me quit the site entirely.

I customized my keys and the bottom row keys do not evenly fill the space. I'd love to know if there is a way to fix this and have them either automatically fill in the space evenly or manually adjust it.

Last year I started my fitness journey and so far have lost 40kgs, found out how important following your progress in terms of lifts, calories and weight trend is. I was doing it across excel sheets with some custom scripts or heavily paywalled apps which just give you very basic features and have privacy concerns (I don't believe an app like this needs accounts, telemetry or data on cloud).

So I built Kilo, its a FOSS android app for tracking your weight, calories and lifts (primarily). Provides muscle heatmap, tonnage/sets per muscle group with different date filters, PR numbers, 1RM, saving routines, logging workouts, exercise breakdown.

It supports imports from strong and hevy, if you use another app let me know and I can look into adding imports for that app too so your progress isn't lost.

Would love for people who use some other workout logging app to try this out. Its open source and requires no account and no internet connection. Let me know any feedback you have or issues you find, on github or comments here. Download the latest release(recommend installing via obtainium): https://github.com/ShayanAbbas1/kilo

>*"Hey everyone! I got tired of switching between 5 different apps just to calculate a bill, generate a UPI payment QR, take quick notes, or translate text.

So I built QuickDash — an open-source floating bubble & widget hub that brings 12 on-demand tools directly over any app: • 🎯 120Hz Radial Bubble Wheel (Customizable 4 favorite shortcuts) • 📱 1-Tap Home Screen Glance Widgets & Control Center Quick Tile • 🔒 100% On-Device & Zero Telemetry (No ads, no tracking) • 🔐 AES-256 Encrypted Local Backups

Every receipt app I could find was a subscription that uploads photos of my shopping to someone else's server, so I wrote one that can't.

Point the camera at a receipt and it reads the shop, the date and the total, picks a category and adds it to your monthly spend. You don't type anything.

**The privacy part is structural, not a promise.** The app holds no `INTERNET` permission. ML Kit's Play Services dependencies try to pull it into the merged manifest, so it's stripped back out with `tools:node="remove"`. Android won't let the app open a socket even if it wanted to. `CAMERA` is the only permission it asks for. Don't take my word for it — `aapt dump permissions` on the APK will tell you.

OCR is the bundled ML Kit Latin model, shipped inside the APK and run on the phone's own CPU. No first-run download, works in aeroplane mode.

**How the detection works**, since that's the actual work:

- *Shop* matched against a dictionary of ~150 chains. Failing that, scored by layout: large text, near the top, mostly letters, penalised for looking like an address, phone number, VAT ID or a price. Every chain on the page is collected and ranked by prominence rather than taking the first one read, because a photo usually catches other text too and the receipt's own name is the one printed large.

Every field carries a confidence, and anything uncertain is flagged for you to check rather than quietly saved. If a photo loses the amount column which happens, since labels are bold and figures are small it reports the total as unreadable instead of reaching for some other number on the page. Correct a shop name once and it remembers that till's layout next time.

Also does budgets, monthly category breakdowns, and CSV export through the system file picker.

**Honest limitations.** It's v1.0. There are 57 unit tests covering the parser against realistic layouts, but it has been tried on only a handful of real tills, so it will meet one that confuses it I'd genuinely like to hear about it when it does. No line-item parsing yet, no cloud sync by design, Latin script only. The APK is debug-signed, so it sideloads fine but won't update over a future release-signed build.

Not on F-Droid: ML Kit is a proprietary Google dependency, so it isn't eligible for the main repo. IzzyOnDroid submission is next. For now it's GitHub releases.
