Is there any closed source android app that you wish had a good open source alternative? (programming.dev)

I'm currently looking to develop an open source app that can help somebody. I'm currently out of ideas, so I'd like to heard if from you guys.

Sorry if it seems to lazy to ask for ideas like that, I just thought that I could do it since the result will be a free app.

This is not an answer to your question, but I would love if somebody would make InputStick software for platforms other than android if possible

I'd be happy if Voiply would just work without GMS and could be downloaded from F-droid.

File Explorer

I haven't checked in a while, but I am still using CX File Explorer because I didn't find a FOSS alternative I like. Maybe it is just because I am used to it, but one thing I really like is the network feature that you can access local shares of a NAS.

It’s not an Android app but ServerCat is the best multi device monitoring/ssh software for mobile that I’ve come across. Sadly none of the alternatives on iOS or Android compare. Totally room for a proper competitor that fits a lot of information in an intuitive and clean ui.

AnyType , AppFlowy, Affine - alternatives to notion LibreSpeed - alternative to Speedtest.net And Penpot - alternative to Figma
