Hi everyone, I’m In the need of an offline calendar and gallery now that simplemobiletools got sold off. I’m wondering what you guys use? My bad if the formatting is weird on this post, I’m trying out a new lemmy client
Edit what I found so far
Gallery replacment: gallery
You must log in or register to comment.
Gallery: Aves - https://github.com/deckerst/aves
Calendar: Etar - https://github.com/Etar-Group/Etar-CalendarTried Aves at this suggestion. Really neat!
Aves Libre for Gallery
I’ve replaced the calendar app with Etar, but I have pretty limited requirements for calendar apps. For a gallery app I use this (which is very poorly named): Gallery
That being said, if someone knows of any good FOSS clock apps (which lets you set more than one timer at a time) please let me know.
Why AOSP’s clock, and therefore most apps based on it, only lets you set one timer concurrently is such a frustrating mystery to me. Have these devs never cooked? Have they never steeped tea while doing laundry?? In what world do you code a clock app which can’t have multiple timers?
Clock you is maybe what u want

Looks like it was changed to https://github.com/FossifyOrg
I’m using their tools and now I’m worried. What happened?

The maintainer sold it off to a company called ZipoApps. Here’s the Github thread about it.
ZipoApps seems to be a company who buys mobile apps to monetize (or further monetize) them. As per their website, their mission is “to find, evaluate, purchase and grow mobile apps”. I suspect the only growth we’ll see with the Simple Mobile suite is the growth of ad-revenue lining this company’s pockets.
This : https://github.com/SimpleMobileTools/General-Discussion/issues/241
As explained sold to ZipoApps (low quality add ridden shovelware, with extremely high price /week to remove adds, from the git discussion).
From a reddit post https://www.reddit.com/r/SimpleMobileTools/comments/18929pq/simplemobiletools_was_sold_alternatives/
There seems to already be a fork : https://github.com/FossifyX
Tho not sure how trusted it can be, but seems to have some hope.
The reddit post also suggests some alternatives. The comments in that post also suggests more alternatives.
The FossifyX fork is by naveensingh, who was active in SimpleMobileTools’ development. From what I can tell poking through Github, they might not have as much time to dedicate to the project as the original maintainer.
