I use Android as my secondary phone, my primary is an iPhone. Though for the past six months, my use of Android has surpassed iOS as the latter is now only for calls, messages and reading emails. For replying to emails, I use a computer.
I have removed as many Google apps as I could using Canta, as long as the phone is able to boot and function.
The apps, in no particular order (read: the order in which I can recollect):
App Notes Droidify F-Droid client HeliBoard General keyboard Unexpected Keyboard Programmer’s keyboard Fossify Calendar, Gallery, Music Self-explanatory Voyager Lemmy client, although not a native Android app Eternity Native Android Lemmy client, although not as good as Voyager Tubular PeerTube and YouTube client with QoL niceties Calculator++ Calculator with QoL niceties Cromite Chromium based browser with QoL niceties Termux Terminal emulator Rethink DNS + Firewall To block ads and monitor network activity Orbot For accessing TOR Emacs Still setting it up on Android, only to browse my Denote repository (which seems the only way I can browse it on any mobile device) Aurora store To install Apple Music Apple Music To use the music subscription from my primary phone Proton VPN Self-explanatory Bitwarden Password manager P.S.
I finally found a chance to use tables on Lemmy.
The tables are actually helpful
I am kinda of curious, why do you use heliboard over swiftkeys?
Not original commenter, but I got the hell off of Swiftkey after Microsoft bought it for privacy purposes. That could be why.
What do you use instead? Autocorrect is a very big issue with the other keyboards
It is the only decent AOSP-like keyboard I could find.
I am just not comfortable using a proprietary keyboard when I know that I have other options. On iOS, I do not have an option, at all!
Having said that, I do miss the better swipe gestures and autocorrect ability of the proprietary ones from time to time.
You can try FUTO keyboard
Thank you. I did come across it, back when I was looking at alternatives. Though I don’t remember why I didn’t try it out.
How is your experience with the keyboard? How does it compare with the alternatives?
Better than Heliboard by a mile. Privacy oriented Keyboard The autocorrect works well and the crazy part is the voice keyboard. Everything is offline
Thank you. I shall try it out as a secondary general keyboard.
