What are the "app dock" apps on your phone? Are they FOSS?

On GrapheneOS:
Orgzly (FOSS)
Folder with personal communication theme:
messages (FOSS)
protonmail
discord
Signal
Phone (FOSS)
Contacts (FOSS)
5 other proprietary or rarely used messaging apps to stay in touch with specific people in specific circumstances.
Folder with daily/common apps:
Fossify Calendar (FOSS)
Local transit app
Settings (FOSS)
Firefox (FOSS)
HomeAssistant (FOSS)
Clock (FOSS)
Organic Maps (FOSS)

I use CalyxOS so completely degoogled because everything passes through microG. I have the following;
Phone (CalyxOS)
Quik (texting)
Fennec (Firefox w security)
Thunderbird
Google Pixel Camera app, firewalled, and any services go through microG

✅ Firefox Beta
❌ QuickPic Gallery
✅ Little File Explorer
❌ Google Drive
✅ Iacoblonut01's Gallery

Cromite, KeepassDX, Moshidon, Phone, K9

Vivaldi - FOSS Weather - FOSS FB Reader - not FOSS but soon to be replaced with Librera FD when I finish what I'm currently reading Clock - FOSS Camera - not FOSS
- Replaced FB Reader with librera this morning, and switched to open camera so now my dock is 100% FOSS!
  
  Woohoo! Nice going. How are you liking Librera compared to FB Reader?

IronFox (web browser)
Fossify Caller app
QUIK (SMS)
Molly (Signal)
Libretube (YouTube)
Thunder (Lemmy).
Oops, all FOSS! :)
The only proprietary apps that see regular use on my phone are my banking app and Spotify.
- Why Molly? Doesn't being unofficial mean always being a step behind in security updates?
  
  If I were having high-stakes conversations, I might agree, but any slight delays in updates is unlikely to affect me. I'm not a high-stakes target of any sort.

Signal ✅
Whatsapp (for those who don’t use signal i must contact) ❌
Firefox ✅ (Which essentially serves as a webapp for an institutional website i need to always visit)
Simplenote ✅
Fennec ✅ (Main browser)

Using KISS launcher as my home launcher in minimal mode.
App dock has:
AOSP Android Dialer (I think), whatever grapheneOS ships
Molly-FOSS (Signal app)
Thunder for Lemmy
IronFox hardened Firefox fork
Logseq Personal Knowledge Management (PKM)

Well - Kind of.
Snapchat (not FOSS at all afaik)
Aliucord (Modded client for Discord, at least partially open source)
Summit (FOSS)
Signal (FOSS, I think)
- Molly-FOSS is the fully FOSS, hardened fork of Signal that is available on Fdroid via their repo.
  Here's a feature comparison on their github between Signal, Molly, and Molly-FOSS. Basically, the stock signal app relies on some google services, Molly-FOSS does not.
- Didn't know Summit had gone FOSS! Thanks mate! 💙

I use Total Launcher, and don't have an "app dock".

✅ Molly, Signal fork: https://github.com/mollyim/mollyim-android
✅ Feeder, RSS Reader: https://github.com/spacecowboy/Feeder
❌ Polar Flow (unfortunately Gadgetbridge doesn't support my device)
✅ Threema Libre, open source, free in context of FOSS, but paid: https://github.com/threema-ch/threema-android?tab=readme-ov-file
✅ Voyager, Lemmy client: https://github.com/aeharding/voyager
✅ Oeffi, public transport: https://oeffi.schildbach.de/index.html
✅ FairEmail: https://github.com/M66B/FairEmail
✅ GOS camera: https://github.com/GrapheneOS/Camera
✅ StreetComplete, OSM surveyor app: https://github.com/streetcomplete/StreetComplete
✅ OSMAnd: https://github.com/osmandapp/Osmand
I thought this was an easy one, but turns out it is not.
- open source, but not free
  Free here means free-as-in-freedom. The free software definition and open source definition are almost identical, there are very few apps that are only one or the other.
  
  Edited. Thx for pointing out.

Firefox ✅
SMS app from Simple Mobile Apps ✅
WhatsApp ❌
stock video recording camera shortcut that came with my phone ❌
OpenCamera ✅
3/5 and as I was writing this I found out I might be able to get rid of the video recording shortcut because apparently a software update exposed the full video resolution to OpenCamera… although I still have to test that.

✅ Molly-FOSS
✅ FairEmail
✅ Markor
✅ Brave
✅ Metro (music player)

I don't have an app dock, so... zero for both?
- Well i do have one, i just like to have it empty
  We are not the same
  
  @drewbelloc @noodlejetski I don't have a dock either. I do have a favourites row though, and currently these are the pinned apps (arranged in no particular order):
  Calls by #GNOME & #Purism
  Chats (#Chatty) by Purism & GNOME - supports #SMS, #Matrix, #XMPP
  Contacts by GNOME
  #Firefox web browser by #Mozilla
  #SignalMessenger
  GNOME Settings
  #Phosh Mobile Settings
  Tweaks by #postmarketOS
  #Tuba (client for #Mastodon / #Fediverse)
  #Kasts by #KDE
  #DeltaChat ( #openstandards-based, #securityaudited, fast #e2ee chats over bloody #email!)
  Files / #Nautilus by GNOME
  All #FreeSoftware /Libre, #OpenSource #FOSS / #FLOSS : )
  Note: The home screen and the app drawer / search / overview is all one and the same.
  FreedomTech #LibreTech #Librem5 #LibertyPhone #LinuxMobile #MobileLinux #LinuxPhones #gnuLinux #softwarefreedom #BreakTheDuopoly
  ![The image shows a Librem 5 Linux smartphone home screen with a dark background featuring a starry space theme. At the top, there is a status bar displaying the time as 2:39 PM, 4G connectivity, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth turned off, and a battery level of 84%. Below the status bar, there is a search bar with the text "Search apps..." in gray.
  The home screen is organised into a grid of app icons. The 1st row includes a green phone icon, a green messaging icon, a blue book icon with "@" symbol, and a Firefox browser icon.
  The 2nd row features a blue Signal Messenger icon, a gear settings icon, a smartphone icon with toggle switches,
  The 3rd row features a tuba musical instrument icon, a radio tower broadcast icon, a chat bubble icon with a "d" which looks like and upside down and inverted "g" (opposite of #Google?), and a blue file drawer icon.
  The 4th row includes an audio player icon, a timing lock icon, a lion face Brave browser icon, and a calculator icon.
  The 5th row shows a calendar icon, a camera icon, a camera under construction icon, and a carburetor icon.
  The 6th row includes a clocks icon, a terminal icon, a headphones over book (audiobook) icon, and a dinosaur icon.
  The 7th row features a pie chart icon, a wrench over hard disk icon, a document with eyeglasses icon, and a green circular icon with a white swirl.

Super Productivity
SchildiChat Next
Open Camera (installed due to this post! replacing the default samsung camera app)
Fennec
SimpleX
Fossify Phone

❓Phone
❌Beeper (Messenger)
✔️ IronFox (Browser)
✔️Aves (Photos)
✔️OpenCamera

Yep, all except for two: Crumpet and our Bank app. We can be pretty sure of this as we run CalyxOS and we have too many apps to list otherwise as everything on our 'dock' is in folders.

Phone app, which is com.Android.dialer that seems kind of (F)OSS at least(?)
Contacts app, same as phone app: com.android.contacts
Telegram client Forkgram which is partly OSS but contains unfree stuff upstream + relies completely on non-free service (telegram server +client)
Email: K9/thunderbird android full FOSS
Browser: Iceraven which is a fork of Firefox Android. It comes with the MPL (Mozilla public license) but I think it also contains non-free binaries or assets, so mostly FOSS I would say?
- @LeFrog @lemmydividebyzero
  Please, could you tell me how you made these hyperlinks, so they have the text appearing instead of the link, like how do in Markdown link ❓️
  
  The syntax is this: [some text](https://my-cool-url.com/nice) which is then rendered like this: some text
  The complete "markdown source code" of my comment is this:
- @LeFrog @lemmydividebyzero
  ⚠️You put the same link, Forkgram's, for K9/thunderbird android and Iceraven.
  
  Thx for the hint, is fixed now

I don't have a fixed bottom row.
I've got maximum two pages. Folder Cover mode is much more efficient. (I hope for an immersive (full screen) mode some day)
90% foss of all apps.
What's not foss? banking, gov broadcasters, arte, ard, zdf, german train app, magic earth, ebay, dict.cc, car sharing,
- I think they should make ard, zdf and arte open source!
  
  Yes! It's bonkers that they did not yet do it
  I also think that they should work with the same backend and similar frontend. But they rather pay 5 people do to the same job
- dict.cc is really great! And at least the German<>English dictionary used is FOSS: https://dict.zero-g.net/
  
  Nice, I didn't know that. Unfortunately, I have to use deepl/linguee in "a lot" of cases

I put all my apps on my home screen and I keep all non-FOSS apps in a single folder as a reminder to find replacements. The vast majority of my apps are FOSS at this point.
- Very nice work! That's a good idea.

here are my 4 non-Foss apps, out of 27 total on dock (yes on the dock, using folders)
🚫nordvpn
🚫obsidian (sync disabled)
🚫@voice aloud tts
🚫MS Swiftkey settings (true privacy threat i know, but Asian lang. support is essential & it runs w/o internet perm., w/o play services, and kept in incognito.)

❌ Phone - com.samsung.android.dialer
❌ Messages - com.google.android.apps.messaging (Samsung)
❌ Chrome - com.android.chrome
❌ Camera - com.sec.android.app.camera (Samsung)
The thing is, I keep them there as a "last resort", not as main use.

Phone (proprietary); Beeper (partial-FOSS); DuckDuckGo (FOSS?); Mlem (FOSS)

Well as I don't have a dock in Niagara Pro I just go on with the apps I pinned:
Telephone, standard dailer from android : ✔️
WhatsApp, eeeeh: ❌ ❌ ❌
Discord: ❌
Firefox: ✔️
Proton Mail: well not FOSS (at least the paid tiers) but OSS
Proton Calendar: same thing
Jerboa: ✔️
Tusky: ✔️
Grayjay: I guess yeah to both (with license) ✔️
M.A.L.P: check and check ✔️

Default telephone, messages, settings, mixplorer, firefox

Phone, messengers/SMS, settings, browsers, and photo/video tools, in that order. Probably mostly because that's the default location and where I'm used to them being.

@lemmydividebyzero
They are Fossify Phone, Fossify Voice Recorder, Fossify Camera, Fossify File Manager and Settings. So, 80% FOSS!
