Been using smart launcher for a while. I like that the pro version offers blur.

Except for being on a Chromium base, I appreciate that Brave isn’t sneakily turning into Chrome 2.0 like a well-known Fox is.

I just found Futo keyboard. Works very well and has offline voice input that works great.

So it might be that Fairphone is not aware how to make the notification bar transparent. It’s a setting in android development they can enable. (Disclaimer: I’m not a developer.)

With that in mind, they seem to be saying it was intentional to hide their lack of knowledge. It’s simply unreasonable that any developer would want such a hideous defect permanently at the top of the home screen.

On a positive note, I believe android 15 is supposed to correct this when the developer does not.

Try a different launcher like Nova Launcher or Smart Launcher.

It seems to be how apps can link themselves to a URL. This service just verifies the link is good.

Here is a writeup on it: https://grapheneos.org/usage#app-link-verification

Google fails that hard on QA all the time. Perhaps iOS would work for you?

While you’re at it, check out their other product, Icon Pack Studio. It’s the last icon pack you’ll ever need.

Google loves to merge apps into one so you are forced to use the rootkit virus that is the Google app.

It’s a consequence of Android, but you can use GrapheneOS if you want to break away.

It’s sad that Microsoft insists on such a dangerous idea in the name of profits.

Do you pinky promise?

Thank you for recommending this. Gesture typing works great with the added library, and text suggestions are working nicely too!

It’s so Google can keep tracking you via Bluetooth and WiFi, which they hope you forgot to turn off said tracking option in settings, and they are making it difficult to turn off all the way.

Unable to install it on pixel 8. It keeps crashing package installer. Tried direct apk install and through Fdroid. Latest version of app version 2.4.0.

Why would anyone want a brown keyboard that has had a red tint overlayed across the whole thing (as in OP)? It looks like a graphical glitch.

For me, I used to love Sync for Reddit for a long time, until he switched to Material You without a real option to go back. Material You is just plain ugly.

Now that I’m on Lemmy, I stumbled across Summit, which looks good and performs good.
