Fossify Phone | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository
f-droid.orgcross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/11117839
Fossify Phone (fork of Simple Dialer) has been released on F-Droid.
Fossify Gallery (fork of Simple Gallery), Fossify File Manager (fork of Simple File Manager) and Fossify Calendar (fork of Simple Calendar) are also available for download on F-Droid, with more to come.
(ICYMI: Simple Mobile Tools suite was acquired by an adware company and their apps on the Google Play Store now contain trackers and unnecessary permissions. This report from Exodus shows that the old version of Simple Gallery had 0 trackers and 10 permissions, whereas the app, after sale, contains 9 trackers and 21 permissions!)
About Fossify: Fossify is all about community-backed, open-source, and ad-free mobile apps. A fork of the SimpleMobileTools, which is no longer maintained, and we’re here to continue the legacy, bringing simple and private tech to everyone.

It has 1 downvote…
Every post that gets even a little traction is going to get some downvotes because people like to troll.
But this could even just be a misclick - I’ve done that before.
It’s really not worth worrying about.
