RULES

Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on [email protected]
Keep it clean and SFW
No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

Kinscreen - Nifty little app that uses your phone's sensors to control the backlight and screen locking. So the screen will never dim as long as you're holding your phone in your hands and will lock itself about 10 seconds after being put onto a flat surface. It cost about as much as a cup of coffee years ago and I feel like smartphones aren't quite as 'smart' without it.

Mixplorer - Great file manager that was free for years on XDA. I didn't have to but I bought the Play Store version just to support the dev. Highly configurable UI, capability to add network drives, Google drive etc. Its own in built text editor, code editor, pdf / ebook reader, video player etc. It's like the crown jewel of Android apps in my opinion.

Poweramp - I prefer having my own mp3 collection to using streaming services. Especially when I'm on the move and using mobile data. So this music player app is one of my most used apps of all. I love the absolute sea of options to play with.
