I accidentally my whole phone. I do have a Titanium Backup of Simple SMS Messenger, from which I can extract the conversations.db. However, when I launch the app, it replaces the conversations. I do not have an export. I would like a method of merging / importing the old conversations from the database. I'm techy and can write SQL, Python, etc. I've had a quick look at the exporter to see if I can replicate the JSON format of the exported conversations. But I thought I might ask in case anyone here has already solved this or has better advice. Cheers!

Simple SMS Messenger (version 5.16.1): SMS messaging and MMS messaging app for Android, send messages fast, nice UI

There is an open-source implementation of an RCS stack that these apps (QKSMS and Simple SMS) might be able to use.

I wasn't impressed with Simple SMS, the devs are a bit slow to fix issues such as the one i reported.

I take about sms app...QKSMS (https://github.com/moezbhatti/qksms) seems dead...But there is an active fork, PartisanSMS (https://github.com/wrwrabbit/Partisan-SMS), cons : it's not on f-droid...Simple SMS (https://github.com/SimpleMobileTools/Simple-SMS-Messenger/) not a huge fan of Simple apps... but on f-droid.Sad about all of this... It was a pro to migrate some people...

Grocy: Self-hosted Grocery Management (version 3.4.2): ERP beyond your fridge, now on your phone – An awesome companion app for grocy

Not using them personally, but I guess Barcode Buddy and Grocy Android both do exactly that (and more).

I know there is Grocy but it requires a self hosted instance... I just want a normal heading and list app (reminder is bonus), Currently i am using Lists it does all except it no longer actively developed and doesn't have Material You theme...

Seems like there wasn't a release/tag made for 3.0, but the android build manifest was updated with a new version. That is what's being checked by fdroid in case of the grocy app. There seems to be a changelog (raw), but I'm not sure it's complete, since no official release was being made. Since nightlys seem to exist now, maybe fdroid needs to adjust their auto-update mode, but that's just my observation.

Grocy: Self-hosted Groceries Management (version 3.0.0): ERP beyond your fridge, now on your phone – An awesome companion app for Grocy

Even with https://github.com/patzly/grocy-android?

I wanted to run grocy on my phone (android) without running my own server and being able to use it completely offline. The devs of the android-app mentioned that implementing offline transactions is a lot of work and therefore, understandably, not a priority and in this issue someone advised to use termux to set up grocy locally, so I made the attempt to run grocy through termux. Eventually I succeeded but termux has some peculiarities in comparison to a proper linux terminal, so the Installation guide was only a rough guideline.

If you're using an older version of app there was an issue when scanning grocycode with an external scanner or manually entering grocycode (https://github.com/patzly/grocy-android/issues/472) that was fixed in version 2.1.0.

Just stumbled upon the Android app[1] while randomly browsing F-Droid and thought I'd share the project as a whole. Kind of a bummer that the Android app doesn't support having a local database, but it's a very cool concept regardless.
