~~This is a collection of basic applications for Android that are, of course, free software and quite polished. For example they have a music player, a calendar, a contacts app, a file manager, a voice recording app, a dialer app, a camera app, a gallery app, etc.~~
SMT was recently sold to ZipoApps, a company known to make proprietary mobile apps that contain deceptive advertisements for overpriced subscriptions. A fork of all the apps is currently being developed, it's called Fossify. Currently the F-Droid versions of these apps won't recieve any more updates and will stay at the last "safe" versions, however if you got them from Google Play, you might consider to get rid of them as they may be updated to any future proprietary versions that contain ads and stupid subscriptions.
This is a collection of basic applications for Android that are, of course, free software and quite polished. These are forked from Simple Mobile Tools after they got acquired and ruined by ZipoApps. For example they have a music player, a calendar, a contacts app, a file manager, a voice recording app, a dialer app, a camera app, a gallery app, etc. For now not all of their apps are up on the Play Store or F-Droid, but whatever's missing you can get it from their GitHub repositories.
