Ah got it. Must be because I’m using the Simple Gallery app and it does have issues when cropping PNGs.

One of the devs has already forked it and plans to maintain the project.
Contact YOU app has SMS inbuilt. The SMS support is in very early stage so buggy but the dev is going on at an amazing pace. Just give it a few more months.
For dialer, I’d keep using the simple app for now. There’s Koler with material you theme but it hasn’t seen dev in 5 months and doesn’t have all the feature like regex-based call blocking.
Here’s why I bought the Phone (2):
Didn’t want to buy a Chinese smartphone because of privacy issues, shitty UI, bloatware, ads, update policies and the lack of any brand value really. I know Google isn’t any better but tackling a single devil is easier than two. OnePlus, RealMe, Xiaomi, Oppo, Vivo, Motorola are out.
Pixel with GrapheneOS looks ideal but the G2 chip has some serious thermal efficiency issues leading to poorer battery life. I’ve seen my friend’s phone stop video recording due to overheating lol. Heat aside, it isn’t even powerful enough to beat the older 8+ Gen 1, let alone competing with Apple’s A-series chips. Plus, no 120Hz or LTPO.
Around this budget, you’ll get Samsung’s A73 not their flagship S-series. Apart from the plasticky back, a snapdragon 788 processor?! No 4k 60 fps recording? Ads and bloatware?! Sorry.
Went with Nothing because it checked all the right boxes for me. Good software, good build, good hardware, good update support, some party tricks. Degoogled it the old fashioned way. It’s something different and a head turner. They’ve really managed to create that brand value somehow in such a short time. I’ve had 3 people ask me to check my phone in just a week.
FYI, there’s a fork of OpenBoard that enables swipe/glide typing! Literally was a game changer for me!
There’s a fork of OpenBoard that enables swipe/glide typing. It’s pretty darn good!
I know there’s a lot of hate on the crypto stuff that Brave pushes in their browser. Heck I don’t use their browser because of it (and also because I don’t support Chromium). But I’ve been using Brave search as the default on Firefox since a few months now and it is honestly pretty good. Much better than Google and Bing/DDG most of the time (for the other times, I do switch to Google). I really really like their AI summarizer and the discussions tab. With them now serving images as well, Brave search is feature-complete as far as I’m concerned. Just happy to see a real competitor to the big tech search, not even leeching off of their index like most others do.
Exactly. For a multimillion dollar company, their app sure is shittier and buggier than 3rd party apps maintained by single devs. It lacks absolute basic features like text formatting shortcuts with Bold/Italics/Quote/List/etc options that should pop up over the keyboard while typing. Every 3rd party app I’ve used has had that.
Detroit: Become Human fits the bill perfectly! It’s a great game with some of the hardest choices you’ll ever make in a game period.
