Antes he compartido un link a la web de #SimpleMobileTools con apps sencillas para Android sin publicidad y sin permisos innecesarios (Calendario, Contactos, Archivos, Galería y Mensajes)
Lo he borrado y comparto el link a #Fossify, que es un fork de esas apps y que es mejor porque 1) Simple Mobile Tools tenía vinculación con Israel y 2) Las apps ya no tienen actualizaciones, y las de Fossify sí.
Gracias a @kurio y a @atmuntenas por las advertencias.
Is there a modern Clock / Alarms app anyone can 100% vouch for wont have its background service nuked on #android ?
Havent found any that request this Alarms & Reminders "special app access" (attached image)
#foss #fossify / SimpleMobileTools Clocks seems to have failed me (or I didnt wake??)
#fossdroid #android #floss #degoogle #freesoftware #SimpleMobileTools #fdroid #alarmclock #androidbattery #batterylife
The irony of needing something to not fall asleep so I can wake up.
Wow, looks like someone picked up the ball with #SimpleMobileTools — a decent suite of Android apps:
https://www.fossify.org/about/
(And they are using fscking WebPee images on their website! 
Well, what did I expect, they are Android app developers, once you dabble in cancer, you might as well go all the way)
Today #freesoftware let me down.
I just ran into a bug on my phone while trying to call emergency services.
I'm running the #microg build of #LineageOS on my #fairphone3 and am using the #simplemobiletools Dialer app. After calling 110 (German emergency services), the phone app kept crashing in a loop.
Software has bugs and I'm not blaming the developers, but if bugs happen in such critical situations, it is not acceptable :(
Who do I need to give money to to prevent such things in future?
@FrugalGamer
#SimpleMobileTools was long taken over by some other company. Please don't install any of their Apps, even from #F-droid. They no longer maintain those apps. Alternatively, you can install it's fork, available on #F-droid, called #fossify Apps.
ma che aspettavate a dirmi che le #SimpleMobileTools sono state forkate?
@PC_Fluesterer Ich bin da übrigens etwas skeptischer geworden. Ich war auch optimistisch, dass es den Fork gab, aber meine letzten Erfahrungen sind nicht gerade positiv. Da hängt eine tolle Erweiterung für den Kalender jetzt schon seit dem 29. April, weil Naveen keine Zeit hat, sich das anzuschauen:
https://github.com/FossifyOrg/Calendar/pull/200
Wenn das bei den anderen Tools auch so aussieht, wird sich das irgendwann todlaufen. So schreckt man potenzielle Helfer ab 
Remember the "Simple Mobile Tools" suite of Android apps? It used to be a great collection of basic apps that didn't slurp up your data, clog up your apps with advertising, or charge exorbitant prices. It isn't anymore.
At the end of 2023, the suite was sold to ZipoApps, who proceeded to do all of those things. (This appears to be their business model: buy an app with a large install base and squeeze every last bit of monetization out of it while destroying its usefulness, fun, and credibility.)
Seriously: They replaced the $2.99 one-time payment for the Pro version of Calendar with a $15/week subscription.
Fortunately the apps were all GPL, and there's a complete fork called Fossify. They're still slowly rolling apps out to F-Droid and Google Play, with about 10 out so far.
I use the calendar and contacts apps all the time, and the voice recorder is good for taking quick notes. I've also used the files, gallery and music player apps occasionally, but not enough to have a solid impression of them, and I haven't yet tried the phone or SMS apps.

Android's "Simple Mobile Tools* may be effectively discontinued (after being bought out my a marking company), but Fossify is alive and well.

@Cyb3rrunn3r @lamitpObuS der entsprechende adfreie #SimpleMobileTools Fork #Fossify ist auch schon da:

@Cyb3rrunn3r @reticuleena #Simplemobiletools° sind das nicht die, die an ZipoApps verkauft wurden?

Fossify is a continuation of the "simple Mobile Tools" suite which recently was sold to ZipApps who then promptly ruined them all.
One of the devs who originally worked on Simple Mobile Tools has forked the code, and released it under the name Fossify.
The tools are available on F-Droid, Google Play or directly from their GitHub repo
Anyone that uses #WiFiCalling (does it matter if I specify on #ATT or a comparable network?) on #Android : If you get #spam calls from random numbers, does the #Fossify / #SimpleMobileTools dialer app work ok with the feature to only allow calls from your contacts through (as the SimpleMobileTools dialer app's description on #FDroid mentions) if using Wi-Fi Calling? I mentioned both SMT and Fossify as not everyone might be aware of both, and the feature is only mentioned on SMT dialer's page.
We now have a fork for the Simple Mobile Tools
