In my countries, we have about 9-10 days of oil left in this Iran war crisis. Next oil shipment is supposed to come at May first week. So I am looking at multiple long hours of load shedding, internet outage (both of which were uninterruptible for as long as i can remember).
Appreciate your help! Kudos.

so I used that app to backup my world before updating.

It used to work fine. But recently, it says "access denied". I haven't found any way to backup.

I know my phone isn't rooted and I'm on a newer version. But it used to work perfectly.

What can I do? Can I backup using a computer?

Any help will be accepted.

Some time back an unlocked cell or even some tablets came with an FM Tuner radio app. You needed to connect the earphone wire for the antenna. This would be broadcast FM and not stations streaming over the internet needing a WiFi source or cellular connection. Yu would be pulling in broadcast radio over the FM airwaves.

Of course most "radio" apps are just streaming sources these days having monetized the otherwise free FM radio signal.

Are apps of this nature still available for download anywhere? I know they may not work on all devices, but if they are still out there I'd like to try one to see if it works.

Suggestions?

something like audials that would let me record but also share it.

audials doesn't let me share what I've recorded.

Over the last 2 months or so i have had 3 apps appear on my phone that i did not put there. Prism? Ocean Sniper? and something else. Is the any way to track down what is installing these? My suspicion was either smart launcher or good lock.

I’ve been using the Google TV app mainly as a remote for my TV, but lately it’s been a bit unreliable/laggy.

I’m looking for alternative apps that can work as a remote. Something stable, responsive, and easy to connect over WiFi.

My phone doesn’t have an IR blaster, so I’m specifically looking for apps that work over WiFi or similar methods.

Any recommendations you’ve personally used and found reliable?

Thanks!

On Wednesday, I woke up to the "reply" being on the left and "silence" being on the right, and today is back to "reply" on the right and "silence" on the left. Did it happen to anyone else?

suggest apps for customizing lock screen

sorry, just a broke student who don't have enough money to buy pro in capcut ✌🏻

I've been using Microsoft's SwiftKey for years but I'm thinking I don't want Microsoft reading what I type. I'm looking for an app that learns from me but doesn't store what I type anywhere but my phone.

I took a picture of a typed out list. Is there a way to convert this to a pdf or text file for my phone? I don't want the picture, just want all the text converted to a note type document for easy reference.

Google says you can do this in Docs, but the picture upload limit is 25kb, so you can't.

I've tried a couple of pdf apps like Lumin and have had no luck so far. They simply convert the picture to a pdf file.

im looking for just a simple app to keep track of how much money I've loaned and how much has been paid back.

free is best obviously, willing to pay some but not a subscription.

I bought a OnePlus Ace 5 a few days ago which is converted to global by changing its rom from ColorOs 16 to OxygenOs 16. I wanted to convert it back to coloros but according to my research they both are almost identical, the only issue is I won't get updates on oxygen os and it's a fixed android 16 rom.

This is my first high-end phone, my previous phone was Samsung Galaxy J7 core. So I don't know much about foss apps or other fun apps, So can you guys suggest me apps of anytime to make my experience better. I am using Revanced YouTube and metrolist. I wanna try other apps too, and also can somebody tell me the solution of not getting updates on my current fixed rom?

Thank You 🤍.

Hey guys,

I’m facing a really weird issue with the Google app on Android.

Sports notifications (like live scores) have suddenly stopped working on my main account. The strange part is:

- All notification settings are ON (Sports, News, etc.)

- Discover feed still shows live matches and updates

- I’ve already tried clearing cache, re-adding the account, and checking battery restrictions

- BUT notifications tab stays empty

Here’s the confusing part:

If I switch to my second Google account on the same phone, notifications work perfectly fine.

So:

Same phone

Same app

Same settings

Different accounts → different behavior

Has anyone else faced this? Is this some kind of account-level bug or server issue from Google?

Would really appreciate if someone has a fix or experienced the same thing.

Thanks!

I always have multiple web browser windows open (brave browser). Is there an app or method for me to switch through those windows apart from other apps?

I downloaded an APK. Then I went to install an APK, but it didn't finish installing, because I closed the install by accident. I deleted the downloaded APK. My issue is now I have storage filled up but can't seem to find where to delete the half installed APK. I know the half installed APK is the issue.

Actions:

Storage Used 40GB, Downloaded APK>Install APK>APK Install Not Finish>Deleted Downloaded APK>Storage Used 48GB>Restarted Phone>Storage Used 48GB

There is no APK installed, no file or folder, but something from that half installation is taking up space.

Is there an app or website that will find duplicates?

Tey should have been added this feature

(why don't we have a suggestion tag?)

For those of you with no built-in screen recorder, a good FOSS app is finally here.

I never liked the XRecorder or AZwhatever... this thing is as good as your built-in, if not better. (and very light)

you can actually record with a higher quality and record the internal phone audio without using your microphones.

We seriously needed more screen recorder foss apps.

Good job!
