Komoot - great bike route planner and gpx recorder.

Mapy.cz - great hiking navigation with trails colors/indications. Mosty Europe I guess.

Fdroid ->Catima - simple loyalty cards / barcodes instead of supermarket apps

Fdroid -> StreetComplete very easy contributing to osmMaps. You know your neighbourhood? Answer questions if that trafic lights have sound indication for blind people or about the type of surface that bike line has.

I've never heard of StreetComplete before but I'm always up for another crowdsourcing app. It looks like it's this one on GitHub and I think this is their website?

Really dumb question, but do they have an anonymous/unregistered mode or do you also need an OSM account?

[–] feecoomeeq@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I checked right now and I'm logged in and I think it's necessary to contribute. But it's a simple form to register and you should try. It's pretty addictive to answer questions about your surroundings :)

Moshidon is a fantastic Mastodon Client. Kotatsu is my personal favorite Manga reader on Android. Image Toolbox is a great choice for an open source mobile image editor with a good amount of features.

Just a few of my personal favorites right now.

[–] poside@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Any reasons why you chose Kotatsu over Tachyomi?

[–] xfts@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I like that the extensions on Kotatsu aren't seperate APK files. No other reason in particular :)

I'm looking for a Mastodon app. The official app and website really sucks for viewing threads. I prefer the comments to be nested like on Lemmy, but the official one stacks them all. Are there any recommendations?

[–] jerrimu@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Not 100% sure it’s on an android, but toot I like more than ivory.

[–] afk@ttrpg.network 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I don't think I have seen the UI you want on mastodon clients, but another good app is Tusky

[–] falkerie71@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

Yup! One guy in this comment section recommended Tusky, and it does nest comments! So I think I'm going to use that for now Thanks!
