I’d bet anyone who has ever them would agree with you.

I looked into this a few months ago. I’m just a user, not a programmer. My conclusion was No. I didn’t find any available way to make a widget. I’d love it if there was, though. Will be watching this thread.

Activity Manager

I’ve used it to launch certain parts of apps. Doesn’t always do what I want. And you have to sift through a lot of useless stuff. But it works.

On F-Droid also

Thanks for responding

Thanks for explaining

I use it on and off. I get annoyed that the swiping constantly gives the wrong words.

I know nothing about all this licensing stuff. Way over my head… But, is it possible that “futo” is using us to train their software, then when it’s working great, change it to a paid app?

You really should ask this in

It’s a very helpful community. Someone will either explain why or point you to a FAQ. I bet it has something to do with the built in reader being insecure.

Edited… I totally gave the wrong url. Sorry. Corrected.

Correct

I have been doing passive research on proton to maybe make a switch… I agree with you. At this point, i think I’d rather have my required services with multiple/different providers and use syncthing in-house whenever possible.

I use android auto and this has been killing me forever… Until about 6 months ago. I found this app on FDroid. AutoNotify. I was never able to get Signal notifications on the speakers when connected to Android Auto. This fixed that. Check it out. It works.

It works. Been using it without fail.

I’ve still got a note 3 in a drawer. Loved that phone. I fire it up once in a while.

Ditto!

Thanks. I’ll check that out

It’s been a while since I’ve had this one. Going to try it out again. Thanks

Thanks. It’s been about a year since I’ve tried this one. Just grabbed it again. Trying to find alternatives for when I ‘de-google’ my life. Hopefully sooner than later

Any way to get live traffic? I’m not finding anything very useful online

Those worked by sound. No power was needed or generated by the remote.

From the article…

By pressing a button on the remote, you set off a spring-loaded hammer that strikes a solid aluminum rod in the device, which then rings out at an ultrasonic frequency.

I THINK I even remember, way back, random channel changes from tapping on a drinking glass or something similar… Cool tech for the time
