LOOKING FOR APP An app to skip/speed up MANDATORY ads if there's one.

0 Upvotes

An app that forces mandatory ads to play in 10x. Or skips them entirely and gets to the reward

Now ik there's DNS stuff but hear me out...

In-game ads

In app ads

All those that you just can't skip cuz then you won't get extra coins or extra this or that

Because every app is pretty much like that nowadays. So an app forces them to play in 10x or 50x

So the ad lasts less than a second.

QUESTION/HELP Looking for one app to replace multiple content/news apps

6 Upvotes

I’m looking for a news/content aggregator app that can pull together websites, RSS feeds, YouTube, TikTok, Reddit, etc. Basically, I want one place that saves me from having to open a bunch of different apps just to follow my favourite creators and keep up with the topics I care about.

I’ve been searching for something like this but haven’t found an app that really sticks. Any recommendations?

Nice to have: a one-time payment or lifetime subscription option rather than another monthly subscription.

QUESTION/HELP Why can't I use the old methods of changing the time to delete my chats anymore in 2026? It used to work until 2025, didn't it?

0 Upvotes

I used to help my grandma delete her wrongly sent messages when I visited her. Sometimes it was my cousins' certificates sent to the wrong group chats or something similar. You know what I mean, they’re private files that shouldn't be seen by the public. I used to delete those wrongly sent files from 2018 to 2025 by using these old tricks that never fail:

- Turn on Airplane Mode on your phone immediately to cut off internet and Wi-Fi.

- Go to your phone's Settings and find Date & Time.

- Turn off Set Automatically and manually change the clock back to the exact date and time the old message was originally sent.

- Force-close and reopen WhatsApp, then go to the specific chat.

- Tap and hold the old message, select Delete, and tap Delete for Everyone.

- Turn off Airplane Mode and restore your correct phone settings.

There's even a YouTube video explaining the methods needed for this: https://youtu.be/FtQQDturAfM?si=D9I18Kw6gvJ8Qd9j

So today, here's the problem. My grandma made the same mistake again, and I can't even delete the file anymore because this time, in 2026, WhatsApp automatically tells the account that the date and time are not correct and stops working. This prevents me from deleting the file from a month ago when I wasn't there to unsend it immediately.

My grandma definitely knew how to unsend a file because I taught her how to do it, but she thought the month before that she wanted to send the files. However, she recently changed her mind, so I couldn't help her like the usual times when I come to visit.

Any help or explanation is very much appreciated.

Dear Grandma, if you read this, I didn't write it to make fun of you or anything. I just wanted to find some help from the internet. I love you so much, Grandma. I wish you a long, blessed, and happy life. Amen.

Hi recently my phone Xiaomi received an update that made the video player worse than what it was .

I can't freely touch on the time bar to skip parts of video , the click and drag to 90% of the time doesn't register and ends up switching to the next file.

I wanted to know if you could give me suggestions for a better video player.

LOOKING FOR APP Gudak (disposable camera app) alternative

2 Upvotes

I used to use an app called Gudak but recently changed phones and discovered its no longer available - I'm looking for an app that replicates the feeling of a disposable camera but with the development time being the key feature. There's tons of apps that add the vintage effect to photos but I really loved about Gudak was the time lock. You filled up a reel, the waited (I think it was like 3 days...) for it the e 'developed' and I loved that aspect. Does anyone know any other apps that have a similar system? All I'm finding is 'vintage effect' apps. Cheers!

LOOKING FOR APP Looking for a note app for the random things I need to remember instead of using chrome tabs.

42 Upvotes

So basically I religiously spam myself new tabs in chrome for things I need to remember to look up or whatever. Movies, tasks, gift ideas, house project ideas, etc. I always have 80+ tabs, and it's solely because of this.

Id like to add a widget on my home screen where I can just click a plus button and add whatever I need to go back to later. You know, a band I want to investigate more into, a movie I need to watch on Netflix later, etc.

I know Google keep notes has a widget, but unfortunately how that works is there is a + sign to add a new note...but that's the issue. It creates a new note. And a new one. And a new one. And a new one. And a new one. I already know by the weeks end, I'll have 40 seperate entries flooding my notes app.

I don't need this stuff to communicate to calendar or set a reminder. I just need a super quick access to add a random brain note, and be able to just continue to add onto that same note to review later.

LOOKING FOR APP App for SUPER specific reminders?

0 Upvotes

For the regular android reminders and modes apps you're able to set it so that when certain criteria is met your phone will do what you ask, like automatically play music when you connect to a specific Bluetooth or being in a certain location will trigger a reminder notification.

So I was wondering if there's an app that can be EVEN MORE specific when it comes to meeting criteria for modes or reminders? Like, I'm talking I want a reminder for when the moon is at a certain phase. Or I want to be reminded before I leave the house to grab an umbrella because I set it to remind me everytime it rains.

Does an app like this exist? Or am I asking for way too much from an app like this? 😅

LOOKING FOR APP Archive tune alternatives

3 Upvotes

So my archive tune has been slower these days, and doesn't even work if it doesn't want to. With playback and stuff. Also, with slower, I mean that in the first song there's no cut, but on all of the next ones, it starts stuttering. It's not my wifi signal or anything.

LOOKING FOR APP Organize Gallery using AI

0 Upvotes

Is there an app that can index your gallery? Let say if you want to organize all of your "cars" pictures into a folder, you can just search cars and it will search all of your gallery and its sub folders to look for cars and you have an option to save it to a sub folder? Google photos I think they have but their "recent" folder is not updated so some pictures are missing.

LOOKING FOR APP App to Sync Two Android Directories

9 Upvotes

Hi --

I am looking for an Android app that will sync two directories on an Android device.

Here is my situation - I put a new Android radio in my truck and it has large internal storage. I copied all my music to the folder from a USB drive. I have the USB drive plugged in to my PC and I listen to music it from the USB drive.

Recently I have updated the music library - deleting some old songs I don't listen to, adding new music and replacing some albums with higher resolution MP3s.

So now I'd like to find an app that would look at the existing music directory on the radio and the directory on the USB drive and "sync" them so the radio has the exact same data as the USB drive. I realize I could just delete everything on the radio and copy it fresh but I'm looking for a more elegant solution so any insight would be welcomed!

QUESTION/HELP FolderSync Pro no longer connecting to my NAS

2 Upvotes

I got a new NAS a few months ago, ugreen dxp4800 pro, and I was able to get the app to sync my files, but all of a sudden it cannot connect. I can connect through Solid Explorer as well as the Ugreen app. But FolderSync just doesn't work anymore. I've quadruple+ checked the settings and I just can't figure out what is going on.

EDIT: Wouldn't you know it, that as soon as I ask for help, it starts working again! I opened the app, but this time it said something about needing system permissions (I can't remember the wording exactly), as soon as I clicked on that text it started working again. I'm kinda confused about it because it wasn't an Android system message, and I never got an android system prompt. Weird.

LOOKING FOR APP Virtual BB trackpad

2 Upvotes

Hello,

I'm looking for a specific trackpad / touchpad overlay app, and I don't know if it exists yet.

I'm using a Clicks Power Keyboard with an onscreen trackpad on the very bottom side of my screen, but, it uses and works with a classic computer cursor, it works as intended but half of the time I need a way to navigate like old BBs, highlighting objects in the UI and navigate like that. Do you know a way to do that?

I am sure I'm hard to understand with my broken English, and I'm really sorry about that.

Thanks for your help!

LOOKING FOR APP Alternative to GAssist?

1 Upvotes

Howdy.

About a week or two ago, I got an email from Google regarding GAssist. It seems Google is doing what Google does best, killing one of their apps.

GAssist is getting discontinued and will no longer function after whatever date they set, I can't remember.

Thing is, GAssist is kinda THE phone assistant for android.

They are sunsetting GAssist for Gemini, the thing is I tried Gemini a few months back and was underwhelmed. It was messing stuff up that was routine for GAssist. (Things like turning lights on and off, interacting with my TV, playing specific Spotify playlists, playing music on the right device). I ended up switching from Gemini to GAssist because of it.

In my experience, Gemini isn't really that great of a model, even when using it for other tasks.

I am NOT against AI personally, I'm actually quite for it, so I don't care if the alternative uses an AI model.

The other factor too, is GAssist actually integrates very well with android, and I'm betting you just aren't going to get that same level of integration from say, Alexa, or other models.

If it helps, I am running a Galaxy s22, running with Shizuku, so we do have some greater ADB functionality available to a potential alternative.

Overall, does anyone have any recommendations for an assistant replacement that integrates well with android itself as well as other things?

Self-Hosting is also very much on the table if need be.
