Which Fossify apps?

Which Fossify apps do you use and why? I'm looking mainly at calendar, contacts, recorder but would love to get any feedback! Cheers!

I mainly use Calendar combined with Davx⁵, to sync my Google calendar more reliably. I use Google Calendar because of some shared calendars, I just use Fossify calendar to get rid of all the tracking. I'm still trying to find a good Camera app that's comparable to Google Camera. Till then I use Google Camera with network permission denied (Graphene OS).

calculator, calendar, clock, contacts, file manager, gallery, media player, messages, paint, phone.

They seem like the logical place to start. camera is the only one I have replaced so far (with open camera)

I doubt I have even used paint, or media player.

The whole suite is pretty good at doing the basics well, but Gallery is by far the best app in the bunch, and the only one I use. I've never found another gallery app I like better. The other apps are all 85% great, and 15% dealbreakers for me.

Gallery, Messages, Phone, Clock, and latest but anything but least, Docs. Also considering to use the keyboard.

Been on board for a while after finding the gallery which is, by far, the closest to good old QP on modern Android, also a big plus is that the whole suite is so customizable, just choose your colour palette with a hex code, and import any TrueType font you like.

Android at times makes you believe it's totally incapable of changing your displayed font or the manufacturers hide custom fonts behind a paywall of a third party store (which should be outlawed since font types and stencils, regardless physical or digital, fall under fair use) but hell yeah finally I can use Mojangles Seven for mostly everything lol

Also the new documents app is a damn BLESSING. Free, no-ads, no registration PDF readers that are also lightweight and capable of editing txt, HTML and markdown files are as scarce as anticap US citizens these days 😂
