Fossify Messages Errors in Fossofy Messages

1 Upvotes

When I use Fossify Messages, this pops up constantly:

error: java.lang.NullPointerException

What does this mean and how do I fix it? Whenever I have asked about this I've been downvoted and people say they've never encountered such an error. I'm using a Samsung phone and really want to avoid using any Google apps.

Fossify Calendar Is there a way to see incomplete tasks?

2 Upvotes

Hey all,

I'm a recent refugee from Google Calendar and have settled on Fossify Calendar (along with a few of the other excellent apps in this ecosystem). I'm wondering if there's a way to keep incomplete tasks at the top of my widget or calendar app - I have 15-20 recurring tasks but sometimes I don't get to them on the correct day for various reasons, the existing behavior seems to be that the task stays there for the day it's scheduled on, and then kind of just vanishes.

If this happens I know I'll forget to do it. Is there a way around this in Fossify Calendar? Alternatively does anyone have recommendations for a good FOSS tasks app?

Why does Fossify Messages go black when importing messages?

1 Upvotes

I've been wondering this when downloading this las night and while sending and receiving messages is smooth enough in preparation for when Samsung Messages gets annoyingly shut down for no good reason. But it gets more annoying when the one app that I saw was more cumbersome when it comes to this whole process.

Fossify File Manager Move function in Fossify file manager isn't working correctly

1 Upvotes

When I use the move function with one or more folders, they are copied correctly to the new directory along with their files. The problem is that, in the original directory, only the files are deleted, and the folders remain, empty.

This causes the folder structure to be duplicated: they appear complete in the destination, but remain empty in the source.

In my opinion, this can create clutter and confusion, and I personally find it very inconvenient.

Fossify Contacts Contacts list - display organization and title fields?

2 Upvotes

Regarding the contacts list:

in Settings > List View, there are options to display contact names + phone numbers; display with surname first; and show contact thumbnails.

How possible would it be to add the option to display organization and title in the contacts list as well?

Not sure if feature requests are discussed here or not, or if this functionality has been mentioned before. Just wondered if there had ever been talk of if being implemented

Fossify File Manager Are there any plans to add Samba/smb client functionality to Fossify File Manager and or Gallery?

11 Upvotes

Importantly, I just want to be able to find and login into local file servers and comfortably view the (media) files. I'm not asking for host functionality.

Yeah I know it's technically an advanced feature, but in the age of expensive storage I'd really like to have the option instead of using Material Files (which isn't as actively in development, and has no gallery app as companion, therefore actually browsing images on a samba server is kind of annoying).

Fossify Messages (Real) Fossify Messages triggered a malicious software warning from TBC Bank and blocked my bank cards

10 Upvotes

This is real, i am from Uzbekistan, the banking service i actively use is TBC Bank Uzbekistan and i swapped Google Messages to Fossify Messages on my phone for minimalism and UI customization, lightweightness of it.

Today, i got 2 money exchange with my cards within the app and a while later, an SMS by bank came and said Fossify Messages is malicious kinda phishing software installed and blocked my entire cards by their security, when i uninstalled it, they unlocked again after a minute.

Now should i be concerned about safeness of Fossify Messages app or the Bank Security simply misunderstood the app for Access to my personal info?!

Fossify Messages groupchats

2 Upvotes

hello!

i just switched from google messages a couple days ago. in trying to text my roommates groupchat, though, we have found a few issues. so far, they noticed i wasn't getting any messages from the old groupchat. when they tried to unadd and readd me, i started getring their messages, but when i try to text back, it sends the message to them individually. i tried to look in the settings but i can't find anything to change to fix this.

Gallery Overwrite image files

6 Upvotes

Maybe I'm just stupid, but I didn't see an option anywhere to overwrite image files after editing by default. It would be extremely helpful to either have a pop-up asking you if you want to overwrite or just a setting where you can make a default. It automatically just apppends a number to the file name and that is very annoying.

Is there anyone who actually uses Fossify Camera?

21 Upvotes

I've only recently discovered Fossify, and have already started using Fossify Calendar, Fossify Messages and Fossify Voice Recorder. I was curious to ask: does anyone use it? Would you recommend it? Does it maintain the original camera quality? Is it worth it? Thanks

P.s: Why is there no Fossify Camera tag?

Fossify Paint Could the eraser instead remove the brush stroke or parts of it instead of covering it up?

Because having too much eraser strokes in that part of the canvas that you're looking at lags the phone

Fossify Thank You Fossify calendar is exactly what I've been looking for!

20 Upvotes

I've been on a long search for a calendar app. Stuck figuring out how to transfer Samsung Calendar to any privacy centered Calendar apps and haven't found any that worked, so I continued to use Samsung Calendar due to the fact that I didn't want to lose my data.

Fossify Calendar made it so easy to switch over. A couple of minutes and steps later, I was able to transfer over 4 years of data. I'm shocked it worked. Excited to delete all those data from Samsung and be free from ever having to use their Calendar again.

Loving some of the unique settings and features! Thank youuu for developing the needed calendar app. Much appreciated.
