Context about these threads: https://lemmy.ml/post/10307932
This thread is ONLY to talk about Calculator, Camera and Calendar FOSS apps and too share your best ones and thoughts.
Probably I will do an edit on the lists I made about apps to talk, because I forgot to add some options when I build in my mind the future threads.
If you want to talk about Contacts, SMS and Dialer FOSS apps, is here.
As I said, I will read (and read it) all comments in all threads to build the final megathread. (Sorry for not reply all comments. even though I read everything).
Your opinions about it are CRUCIAL and FUNDAMENTAL, because your opinions is the main-base to build the megathread.
Have a nice day for everyone. (and sorry about my english, I hope everyone can understand me)
Camera: GrapheneOS’s camera app. Have been my camera of choice ever since I’ve discovered it. Never had an issue, offers all the basic features you would expect from a camera
Meta: just making sure that anyone that reads this comment is aware of the existence of Obtainium!
Obtainium allows you to install and update Apps directly from their releases pages, and receive notifications when new releases are made available.
obtainium should be on the list as a neccessary app
Calendar
I use num++ from fdroid because it’s the only one I found able to represent expressions in “richtext” instead that a plain text line of numbers, because it is much easier to double check for errors
Any calculator app that’s similar to Numi on Mac (https://numi.app/) for Android or Windows? I like the running history and simple conversions.
I use https://numbr.dev/ as it’s web based and everything you type is encoded into the URL so it’s easy to create templates. it’s replaced my numi usage and it’s pretty seamless for my small usecase.
I use Calculator++pretty good scientific calculator app. For camera I use Open Camera pretty lightweight and have all features that I want. I didn’t use any Calendar app. So, I can’t suggest any calendar app.
My suggestions.
Calculator:
OpenCalc - Very simple calculator, just how I like.
Calendar:
Shiftcal - Is a very, very simple calendar. I use it because serve my needs, and I just need a calendar to see future days.
Camera:
Graphene OS Camera - Im using this because I know is from Graphene and I know how their respect privacy. Has QRCode too.
Do FOSS camera apps (on Android) support “live pictures” - the type with several frames from which to choose your favorite? I really like that feature in Google’s camera app. I do wish I could figure out how to export them as GIFs or something.
