Is there any proprietary Android app for which you wish there would be an open-source alternative?
Is there any proprietary Android app for which you wish there would be an open-source alternative?
Basically, what the title says. Do you use any app, that is proprietary, but either has no OSS alternatives or they're all not good enough? If there is an alternative, what keeps you from switching?
You're viewing a single thread.
OpenCamera is good, but could do better. But I'd say video editing is the biggest void.
Also, gesture typing keyboards are an empty niche of foss alternatives. HelioBoard requires loading some proprietary blob unfortunately.
I guess the most heavy machine learning use cases are not filled in.

FlorisBoard is on the way to implement swype-typing. Unfortunately, it is unlikely to be very soon.
For gesture typing I use AnySoftKeyboard and it's quite ok. It has a lot of options that make it very convenient for me, despite it's reputation.
The FUTO keyboard has swipe tying, but it's not as fluid imo
isn't this one proprietary?
You're right, it's some FUTO license and has some limitations that make it not FOSS.
