Criteria:
Kvæsitso is a launcher application for Android which replaces the device's default home screen. It has been built from scratch, meaning it is not based on the AOSP launcher (like many other third party launchers) nor does it try to recreate this launcher.
- Good device / app search. + Tags do the job of folder function. + Quite intuitive once you get used to a different approach of sorting & launching apps. - No multiple screens for Home. - No horizontal stacking of widgets.
We are building a modern keyboard that respects your privacy and security. 100% offline and 100% private, the FUTO Keyboard is equipped with all of your favorite features including but not limited to swipe typing, offline voice input, smart autocorrect, theme selection, and...
Still in alpha. + Includes swipe function unlike few other well-known alternatives (Heliboard / Fossify Keyboard). + Voice input included. + Support many languages. - Swipe accuracy needs a lot of improvement (when compared to GBoard). - No transliteration function for Indic languages. - Huge app size, due to the need for locally downloading the models. Still a huge gap from being an easy alternative to GBoard.
Fossify Messenger is your trusted messaging companion, designed to enhance your messaging experience in various ways.
- UX is close to Google Messages. - 'Mark as Read' needs individual messages to be selected, and takes a while to reflect.
Amaze File Manager is an intuitive, open-source file manager for Android that's both free and ad-free (no upgrade offers, no popups, no ads at all). It's based on Material Design guidelines so it sits very nicely alongside the stock Android experience from Google and...
- Good & fast UX. Would be even better if Amaze File Utilities was merged into it (as a one-time paid option), instead of having 2 separate apps.
Aegis Authenticator is a free, secure and open source app to manage your 2-step verification tokens for your online services.
- Well designed. + Grouping available, if list is too long. + Can schedule auto export / backup of apps configured.
Free open-source tool offers secure, end-to-end encrypted file and message sharing over local networks across major desktop and mobile operating systems.
- Simple UX. + Good option for sending files to PC quickly, without need to connect via cable. - Relatively new, so not sure about verification of the code by the community.
Breezy Weather is a weather app with a strong focus on design, with a simple, clean UX, smooth animations, and Material Design all over, plus lots of customizability.
- Good UX. + Location / GPS permission is optional, if manually entering city info is preferred. + Good options of Widgets, which are informative and minimally designed.
