Not just another reminder app

I am working on building a reminder sharing app, where I and you can literally set reminders for each other on the opposite phone or device.

I already built a prototype, but I am not sure if this app even makes sense to anyone or is there even any market demand for it ?

Am I using Android right? (After switching from iOS)

Question might sound confusing, so let me explain.

Summer 25 is when I switched from iOS to Adroid, after being a iOS user since 2010. I now have a Nothing Phone 3 and I like the Android platform. What I don't know: am I taking advantage of Android compared to iOS?

What apps do you guys use after switching systems, so you get a better experience? I have this idea that, when leaving Apple, you have 10x more options for basically everything. But I see myself using mostly entertainment apps like YouTube, Reddit, Instagram. Nothing Android specific that improves the user experience.

I know that this is a very vague and open question, but I'm sure y'all can give me some good inputs.

Question | Bug? Cx Explorer (no hidden files shown)

I have been using Cx Explorer for years and it's my favorite File Explorer for Android, but recently I need access to hidden folders, but I can't show them.

Even with the Option "Hide/Unhide" checked..

The created ".filename" are just disappearing and I can't get them to see again.

How do you manage bookmarks and links across multiple platforms?

Hi everyone,

Quick question for Android users, who also use Apple, Linux, or a desktop during the day.

How do you currently manage links across devices?

For example, if you come across something on Instagram on your phone and later want to share it with a friend on Slack from your laptop, what does that flow usually look like for you? Do you send the link to yourself, rely on browser sync, download the app on both devices, or something else?

Feel like there are a few different ways to do this, but none of them feel particularly smooth. (Used to use airdrop when I was on iPhone)

Notes

Does anyone know of a note-taking app that can add videos besides Notion? The ones I see only allow YouTube links; I wanted one that could upload videos from my own gallery.

Is there a similar alternative to 1dm+?

I love 1dm+, however the browser freezes up sometimes and the app becomes useless until I clear it.

So I'm looking for an app alternative that is a browser with a block and internal download manager, and can fine tune settings.

If it's paid, I prefer something that is buy once, not a subnoscription

Thanks for your help

What’s a paid app you bought that vanished from the Play Store, had development stopped, or got region-blocked?

Mine: ES File Explorer Pro.

I really felt bad losing it, and of course the money I paid for it. It was the best file manager at that time.

Ways to take screenshots of protected apps

Are there any apps or other ways that allow a screenshot to be taken even if it's been restricted by the app developer? Medical apps, bank apps etc.?

Looking for a NON workout/training interval timer app

I want an app that can set timers for intervals like this

- "Create a timer that goes off every 2 hours from 8am - 4pm on Monday - Friday only"

I cant find anything that does that. All these interval timer apps are built around workouts and training so there is sets and reps. I dont want that.

Can anyone recommend anything?

**UPDATE:** NM I found one "repeat alarm"

Is there a "Tinder-style" swipe app (just like Photoswooper) for cleaning up document files?

I've been using PhotoSwooper to clear out my phone's photo gallery and it's actually made a chore fun. Now I'm looking for something similar but for documents (PDFS, Word docs, old downloads). Does anyone know of an app that lets you swipe through file previews to quickly delete or keep them? Thank you for your time.
