  • syncthing-android

    Wrapper of syncthing for Android.

  • Not exactly an android-only app, but Syncthing. Set and forget file sync service! I have dedicated folders in documents, music, picture folders specifically for those files i want to sync across devices and let the app handle the rest

  • medito-app

    The Medito app is a 100% free meditation app built with flutter. The app is available on Android and iOS.

  • Here's the source code https://github.com/meditohq/medito-app/tree/develop/android I'm not familiar with building.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • AndrOBD

    Android OBD diagnostics with any ELM327 adapter

  • AndrOBD - highly recommended. The only good functioning FOSS app that connects to the car's diagnostic system through an OBD2 adapter, if you want to diagnose your car for problems, sensor information etc. Also has a demo mode (if you deny adapter connection) so you can see what it sees from your car without needing anything. See project page for more info

  • aves

    Aves is a gallery and metadata explorer app, built for Android with Flutter.

  • Metro

    Best material design music player for Android (by MuntashirAkon)

  • This is where Metro comes in.

  • SyncTrayzor

    Windows tray utility / filesystem watcher / launcher for Syncthing

  • One thing to understand about Syncthing: The application itself acts like a service on desktop, not an app. To interact with it, you will need to use a browser, which isn't bad, but most rather there be some kind of app. On windows, use SyncTrayzor and there are other options on the download page of the site. SyncTrayzor handles installing everything it needs

  • muzei

    Muzei Live Wallpaper for Android

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
