What are Reddit's favorite android apps in the category productivity?

I use this app to unmute my phone by sending a SMS(with a custom phrase) from another phone to my phone.

I use this app to ring my phone at full volume even if it's in silent or vibrate by sending a SMS(with custom phrase) from another phone to my phone.

Will these be impacted?

Another approach is to replace your home button swipe up gesture with AppDialer. This way I can access any app or contact from any screen.

AppDialer

A small pop up window which lets you open apps on your phone very quick. You search for apps with T9 or a normal keyboard. It replaced the app drawer for me. I only have a short cut to AppDialer on my homescreen.

Swipe gestures (Nova)

• If I swipe on Inbox, it launches Gmail. If I swipe on Phone, it launches contacts, etc.

• Two-finger swipe down displays my Notif Log notifications.

• pinch-in launches Nova settings

• Two-finger swipe down launches wifi settings

• single-finger swipe down expands notifications

• swipe-up launches Google

Think about it this way: If you were not ripping your hair out and burning effigies of Steve Jobs when you were using iOS, you may not be someone who wants or even needs customization at the launcher level. But for those who demand that their mobile devices work for them, alternative launchers make sense. When I was using iOS, it took 2-3 times as many clicks and actions as it would in Android. Customization and launchers are a big part of that.

As a side note, you may come up against this question ("why?") again once you hear about Tasker. For many of us, it makes having a mobile device tolerable. For those who don't need it, it won't make any sense.

I highly recommend you to try AppDialer.

I have Nova configured so that it pops up when I swipe up from the drawer icon. And because you can use ABC search instead of full a QWERTY keyboard, it's extremely fast to search for apps just using your thumb.

This doesn't use your universal Google search though, will only show apps + contacts.

Still way more practical IMO.

I like to use Trello to structure my tasks. I keep a tab open for each month's "Done-tasks", and one for my Todos.

This way it's easy to look back on achievements, and easy to keep track of, and prioritize what I want to do next.

Trello is usually used as a project management tool for software projects, but I found it translated quite easy to "life management" :)

linkme: Notif Log

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.dvdh.notiflog

A little app to keep a history log of notifications in case of accidental dismisses. Also snoozing notifications!

Note: shameless plug I'm the developer :)

If it could have a simple and elegant calendar widget too it wouldbe much welcomed. But not as bulky as Google's or Samsung's one, but something more like https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=sk.mildev84.agendareminder

>my examiner will be picky with that

That is often true, but it isn't in the ACS, and there are not FAA standards on flight computers, mechanical or otherwise.

I use a flight computer on my HP Graphing calculator, which I can also run on my phone, in an emulator of the calculator itself. I rarely directly use my graphing calculator for anything, because I use the emulator on my phone, but I do keep the physical calculator in my flight bag, because if my phone dies, I can use something with multi-month battery life that has the same interface I've been using on my phone.

During my check ride, I brought the graphing calculator with me, and planned to use it primarily, because of the negative stigma phones still have, but I ended up doing all of the math in my head, because I was flying a 152 that burns 0.1 gal of fuel per minute, at a cruise speed of 1.5 nautical miles per minute, making the math easy. My DPE didn't seem to mind that I gave the answer without pulling out a flight computer. I did work out the problem out loud, so she knew I wasn't just guessing.

Using a slide rule in an airplane, especially during exams, comes down down to tradition more than anything else, but if you use an electronic calculator that is marketed as a flight computer, most every DPE won't think it out of the ordinary.

The only thing I liked about Windows Phone was the home screen look. The rest, I much prefer Android, so Windows Launchers on Android is perfect for me.

Instead of the terrible app drawer scrolling list, I just use AppDialer as a link on the home screen.

AppDialer. When you launch it, it pops up a 9-digit dialer that lets you search your apps using T9 typing and predictive search. On Nova Launcher, I set it to the swipe-up shortcut on the app drawer icon. I can launch any app on my phone with a swipe and a couple additional taps, saving me from scrolling down a lengthy app drawer.

One tip - unless you want to search contacts as well, be sure to disable that functionality to make the app search much cleaner.

edit: oh, and I think there's an annoying persistent notification you'll want to disable as well.

Set the time using http://time.is and then check it again at the same time tomorrow.

Or there are several apps out there for iPhone / Android. I use WatchCheck on Android.

Son útiles. Si las usas continuamente, es mucho mejor que una app en el celular (la respuesta es instantánea y el comportamiento es más confiable). Si sos estudiante, usar un teléfono puede que no sea una opción.

Yo no la uso tanto (y no conseguí arreglar el teclado de mí HP 48GX) así que uso una app:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.ab.x48

I know this isn't an actual calculator, but you could get an emulator for your phone. They have an awesome hp 48gx emulator for android phones (not sure what they have for iphones): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.ab.x48

The following two automation apps have a free version that can do what you want.

• AutimateIt
• Automate (by LLama Labs)

Haha I'm only being sarcastic/tongue in cheek ;)

It does amaze me though why people downvote someone's choice of homescreen setup. I like it, so why does anyone else care? Some people really have issues!

I use my phone primarily for work, hence all the information, and access to lots of apps from the home screen. Even when I'm not at work, I prefer quick access to apps, rather than it looking pretty and minimalistic. I've never been a fan of "nothing on the screen" :P

Nova launcher (obviously :P)

Agenda Widget

Pocket Weather (Australian weather only)

Cool, so create a gesture so that when you double tap, it launches this app Check out "App Dialer app/contact search"

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=name.pilgr.appdialer

Or, just the Google app and it'll be possibly dual purposed, but not as fast getting apps.

If you have > 100 apps. AppDialer helps you use your giant phone in one hand. It has simple T9 or regular keyboard as a widget for very fast app/contact search.

Root Explorer

Been using it since Android started, love it.

Network functions work great on Phones & AndroidTV.

Also, if you're not rooted, Explorer is the same app without Root access for free, networking functionality included/works too!

Engineer here with a few years old. I really love Droid48. An emulator of the mythical HP+ 48g. I was used to the original, and now is my default calculator.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.ab.x48

Millennial here

I love RPN, because it is more or less the only reasonable way to work with multiple variables on a calculator. Without it, I'm usually writing things down, to type in later. I view the need to use a piece of paper, with a calculator, as a design failure.

I also use an HP-48 emulator as the calculator on my phone. Apple will not allow it on an iPhone, which is why I do not recommend them to co-workers.

I have been owning a Zenith El Primero Classic Cars for about a month, and I decided it's time to test its accuracy.

I used WatchCheck to compare the watch reading to GPS time. What you see in the chart are some of the latest measurements that I took. Each dot corresponds to a 12-hour measurement, where the watch was resting with vertical dial with the 12, 3, 6, or 9 mark up.

As you see, different resting position consistently gave different errors (always less than +/- 5 seconds a day). However, when the watch is worn, it becomes extremely precise: +0.1 sec/day! I like how wearing the watch keeps it in different positions so that at the end of the day most of the error cancels out. This watch really wants to be worn!

Loosing 3 second or - 3 seconds and gain 3 seconds and + 3 seconds are two of the same things. This means that in 24 hours (approx) the watch will gain 3 seconds or loose 3 seconds. Mostly in reference to mechanical watches as quartz watches are more like +3 seconds a month or something. You can check your own over a couple of days by using WatchCheck app for your android.

As the watch adds seconds you will have to set it back or forward to keep it relatively accurate. Most watch enthusiast like doing this as it's a quest time to spend with our beloved time pieces.

TL;DR:

1.) Widgets > Settings shortcut > Notification Log

2.) Notif Log

>you’ll need to be running version 74 or higher of the Chrome Android app. You can check your app’s version and download the most recent update from the Google Play Store.

I'm only seeing version 73.0.3683.90

*edit - ok found it, you need to look up Chrome Beta

The rule should be:

com.chrome.beta|*|53

You just have to change the package ID to match the app. An easy way to find the package ID is to look the Play Store url:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chrome.beta&hl=en_US

I'd recommend app dialer

I have it mapped to open if I hold down my home button. I can go from any app to any app in seconds with a few taps

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=name.pilgr.appdialer

I have used Calendar Widget by Milan Sillik for quite a long time now. It contains two widgets (Calendar and Agenda) to display the Google Calendar information.

I liked it so well that I bought the Calendar Widget KEY to unlock and support the developer.

AutomateIt can give you similar results for those that want a less complex userface. There is a setting that allows it to detect when and where to connect to a WiFi.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=AutomateIt.mainPackage

Sounds like they just gave you a generic answer to sell you a service. Use watchcheck to check it for yourself. Then you can regulate it. I can never remember which way demagnetizing works. My thoughts is to rule it out but I guess if you have one then you'll know more about it then me. Good luck. If you decide to throw it away because it's no good, contact me. ;)

Root Explorer is for me the best app for that situation. I was using a few others before I came across RE its such a nice app and is full of features. I've even managed to modify my build.prop with it to remove some things and add other. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.rootexplorer

I'm in love with my SARB, a belated 21st birthday gift. I've been wearing it on a Hirsch Highland brown leather strap daily since receiving it. I love the contrast of the brown leather and cream dial. It came with a stainless steel strap, but I am just not a fan of metal straps in general, hence why I ordered a couple of leather straps with the watch.

While waiting for the watch to be delivered I was worried that it would not suit my tiny wrist, but it seems to be a perfect fit and I doubt I would look at getting anything bigger than 38mm in the future. I don't like the idea of having a huge chunk of watch banging around on my wrist. My dream watch would be either a Nomos Tangomat/Orion, or a vintage Seamaster De Ville (or both!).

The photos were taken during a recent trip to Cape Town. The view of Table Mountain had been obscured by the mist rolling in from the Atlantic Ocean and I was glad to have a few minutes of clear sky to take these photos. Apart from the mist, this was about 12 stories up on the roof with a strong wind blowing. Glad my phone did not grow wings and take off out of my hand!

On a side note, I got an awful watch tan after spending a day taking the cable car up Table Mountain and walking around on top of it. Better get used to it though I guess, because I think I won't be taking the watch for any extended period of time.

According to WatchCheck (great app for logging watch accuracy over time, if you haven't heard of it), the SARB has been gaining less than 3s per day which I'm very happy about. I did not expect to have to set it so infrequently.

That's cool. I wonder if there are any third party solutons similar to this.

I use the WatchCheck app for Android but it's very reliant on how fast I can press a green button.

Calendar Widget Month+Agenda is not too bad. Unfortunately, they don't hook into reminders, so I'm stuck with stock still.

I Still find Chrome Beta works best for me. But if you don't like Chrome, Slimperience is a nice browser.

Sure thing. If you want a far more complete & customizable log of all your notifications, give this app a try.

It's functional, light on battery, receives regular updates, & has a very communicative developer. I've been using the pro version for 3-4 months now & haven't encountered any issues thus far.

You need three things.

First, you need a calendar app, which you already have with every smartphone - Google's calendar app works fine.

You'll probably also want a to-do list app. Right now, I'm using GTasks, which you can install from https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.dayup.gtask

Finally, you need the widget, Pure Calendar Widget, from here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.koxx.pure_calendar&hl=en

First, make sure Google Calendar and Gtasks are working, and you've got your calendar and to-do lists working.

After that, you just set up the Pure Calendar Widget. Go to your home screen, then long-tap (hold your finger on the screen) to bring up the home screen options. You should see a "Widgets" icon on the bottom. Tap on it, and scroll through the available widgets, until you find "Pure Calendar widget. Select your widget size of choice. After that, you'll get the widget on the screen. You should have a gears icon on the widget that you can then use to set up how it displays your calendar items and to-dos. There's a million options to choose from to set up how it looks, and how it displays your stuff, so spend some time playing with the options until it looks good and works for you.

I just made an app to do this! It keeps history of notifications, and the notifications are all functional, you can see exactly what it looks like in the status bar and click on them :)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.dvdh.notiflog

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=name.pilgr.appdialer&hl=en

I use this one, configired to pop up after a double-tap on my homescreen. It supports T9 or Qwerty input, and is fast.

Lets me have a real minimal homescreen with no icons needed whatsoever.

> I can't do the work now, since I don't have a stats calculator on me.

A computer with an internet connection can stand in for a statistics calculator. If you've prepared by installing the right software, you won't even need the internet connection...

Alternatively, you could be browsing with a tablet, in which case there are tablet apps that could be useful. If you're using android, then Droid48 is a great calculator app.

Trello - Trello is now my daily task/life-management app using the GTD philosophy.

After YEARS of trying task lists, reminders, etc., nothing comes close to Trello for that.

Gtasks is my single favorite Android App.

You can add a checklist widget to your home screen, and it syncs to PC through Google Tasks. You can create new tasks by saying "note to self..." in Google Now.

I use AutomateIt for this and it works pretty well. Just set the trigger to connected to [your WiFi network] > Disable screen lock. Link me: AutomateIt

Link bot posted the paid version, but AutomateIt free can do this action fine: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=AutomateIt.mainPackage

Do you mean you just want to see a blank calendar? With Calendar Widget, you could uncheck all of the calendars to show appointments from and it will show a blank calendar.

edit: Or if you leave the calendars checked, they just show dots, no text.

Personally, I use Moon+ Reader for reading e-books on my tablet, but I do not use it for organizing them. Rather, what I do is I use the actual filesystem to organize my books. I organize them on my computer in whatever layout I want (e.g. with all of the books in a particular series in the same folder), and then I use syncthing to sync the files between my computer and my tablet (which is something I find useful to be doing with my mobile devices in general anyway). That way, I can do all of the file organization on my computer rather than my tablet, and my e-book files don't just live on my tablet. Then when I want to read a book, I use a file browser app (specifically root explorer, but there are a variety of file browser apps on Android to choose from) to actually navigate to whichever book I want to read and tap on it to open it in Moon+ Reader.

So, that's what I would suggest doing, but obviously, you'll have to figure out what works best for you. Either way, I can't help you with how Moon+ Reader organizes books, because I actively avoid that functionality. It's not functionality I even want in an e-book reader.

Definitely not ES File Explorer. If it still works, I've used Root Explorer for years. Caveat... needs a rooted device, but they have another file explorer which doesn't require root.

For Australian Surveyors BENCHMRK is an app useful for finding State Permanent Survey Marks.

I use Droid48 all the time. A HP48 Emulator.

Weather Apps (I use our Government BOM app)

CASA Open Sky (Lets me know if there are restrictions for flying our Drone)

Compass. Just for basic orientation starting an unconnected job.

Tinder. Because, well, Tinder.

If you use Nova it's really simple. Just create a widget, Find Nova launcher - activities. Place it on the home screen. Select it and go down to Settings and scroll until you find Notification Log. The only only downside is it only goes backs so far.

If you have no clue wtf I said then just download this:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.dvdh.notiflog

LMT + AppDialer are the best combo. Even on P, you have to back to the homescreen, and if the app that you are looking for is not on it, you have to go to the app drawer, scroll or search for it. Still slow as fuck.

With LMT you can open AppDialer from anywhere.

My favorite feature of AppDialer is that if you install an app, and later you open AppDialer, the first app in the 'result section' will be the newly installed one.

I use GTasks (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.dayup.gtask) and if you pay $5 it should sync with Google Tasks. I don't need/want this so I don't use it, but I love this task app. Has all the options I'd want. Worth a try (free version) and a one-time fee of $5 to sync ain't bad.

Been using GTasks for a while now and I love it. It has all the requirements you are looking for and doesn't require a subscription like many newer apps.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.dayup.gtask&hl=en_US

A major reason I stick with it (besides it just working well for me) is that I can have the tasks show up in Pure Calendar Widget so I can have all my calendar items and todo items in the same scrollable widget. (It has it's own widget, but I prefer this and having 1 widget for calendar and tasks is just great for me).

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.koxx.pure_calendar

The Calendar widget can be found (for free) in the playstore: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=sk.mildev84.agendareminder It is quite configurable and free, worth a try

The weather widget is the stock Samsung one

its safe as long as you are careful. mechanicals are pretty delicate pieces of machinery.

nudging the regulartor will probably take some trial and error. its VERY sensative, even the slightest movement will set it off quite a bit one way or another. might take a couple weeks to get it running +/-5 seconds a day.

so, you can do this...but I'd do it as a last resort.

you can try setting your watch in different positions over night to help regulate. leaving it dial up, crown up, or crown down will have some impact on the accuracy. I'd use an app to help keep track of all this. For an android app, I can suggest this app just use it, and keep track over a few days with the watch in different positions over night and you'll see over ~5 days which way works best.

7 seconds a day is pretty good, though it CAN get better.

if you REALLY need an accurate watch, I'd sell the bambino and get a quartz watch. if you like the look of the bambino, look into the Orient Capital. its a similar style watch (case and high domed glass) but a couple of more traditional dress style dials. but $100 with the same great quality of an Orient in a somewhat similar style and size.

You can have AutomateIt or Trigger do this, as well as a myriad of other things ;)

Reinstall Chrome.

On an unrelated note, I recommend Chrome Beta. It’s mostly just as stable as the regular Chrome app, and it gets the newest features faster than it. I’ve never encountered any crashes or bugs.

I understand, I looked for something like that for long time and it was the best solution I found.

Here is another app that doesn't require root: notiflog

I have quite a lot of apps and like to test different icon packs so I change them often. This makes it kinda hard to find the apps in the app drawer. Looked for an app to quickly launch apps and came across AppDialer T9. Very solid free version and works wonders for me.

Here's the link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=name.pilgr.appdialer

Well, there's Notif Log which, as the name kinda suggests, keeps an interactive log of all the notifications you receive, so even if something accidentally gets swiped away you can just refer to the app to see what it was.

It Is more of an "after the fact" type of interaction with notifications than a different means of dealing with them as they are received, but I think it's in the ballpark of what you're looking for.

I use the original Root Explorer: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.rootexplorer

Any file explorer which supports root should work though, even in the default CyanogenMod one root access can be enabled.

Use a Trello board, one day per column and you should be fine. I use this to do my shopping list and plan daily meals.

GTasks: Todo List & Task List - From same developer but lists the calendar integration in free version

Tasks - minimal google tasks app(not from google). Only 1 time payment. Integrates seamlessly with google's task chrome extension. There is a free version with ads.

• Google Tasks + GTasks (android). Lo uso constantemente para tareas, anotar ideas y organizar mi día.

• Google Calendar para todo lo que tenga fecha. Con diferentes colores para diferenciar tareas, recordatorios, fechas importantes, etc.

• Google Docs para metas y proyectos.

Download the app Root Explorer.

Then in the app go to the left tab and navigate to the top level. Navigate to the folder System and build.prop should be there. Mount R/W and long-press build.prop and hit the menu to open it in text editor. Scroll to the bottom and add the line

net.tethering.noprovisioning=true

Then hit the menu to select save & exit. Restart your phone and you should be able to use the wifi hotspot from android's settings! :D

Also automate it as should do the trick.

>Like when I hop on the subway, I want to turn on airplane mode for only an hour so it automatically turns off after that. Any ideas?

Easy with this app

Trigger = fitbit app opening

Action = Enable bluetooth

Trigger = fitbit closing

Trigger = disable bluetooth.

I have exactly that set up with my in car music app, when the app opens, bluetooth comes on and auto connects to the car. But I have power disconnect set to disable bluetooth after a 5 minute delay, in case I just unplug it for what ever reason and then plug it back in again.

You could use something like this and just access it with a tap or swipe on your home screen, or access it from the Google Now gesture. That'd let you use a full featured launcher but still use the app search.

There's an app on Android called notifications log, that I just put on my far left home screen. It shows all the notifications that the phone has received, regardless of whether the item was cleared or is still there.

It has the options of left swipe to remind again (snooze) and right swipe to dismiss

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.dvdh.notiflog

man, I must have gotten lucky with my watch. I have the orient Mako and its within +/- 1 second a day. I have been tracking the watch with an watch check and while its not a perfect way, its accuracy is probably within a half second.

for the entire month of Feb it averaged -0.3seconds/day...maxed out at +3.1, and -5.7...but most were under half a second off from the previous day.

I think SQLite is the standard answer. I'm looking into https://github.com/pilgr/Paper which looks sweet and easy.

Snooze Notifications!

Notif Log is an app that let's you snooze notifications, plus a lot more:

• material design
• customize snooze times: exact time or relative from now
• swipe gesture driven like the status bar
• functional notification history: clicking on a history item performs the same notification action
• app widget
• choose apps to exclude from history log
• Pin important notifications
• Rearrange to your liking
• Theme customization - Define your own Dark Theme :)

We made a lot of improvements thanks to the wonderful feedback from an earlier post.

Thanks! KiwiT.

If you need to use another browser, but also want Chrome, give Chrome Beta a try. Same syncing functionality as Chrome and it might bypass whatever weird Chrome issue you're having.

You should check out Droid48. It's an emulator based on the X48 project. It's been on my phone since the HTC Magic days.

I've not seen it mentioned yet.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.ab.x48

They fixed that in the Chrome Beta so I'd hope it should be fixed in Chrome soon. If it's driving you crazy you can get the beta build here.

There was a webGL texture bug in the latest mobile Chrome release. Mobile Chrome beta seems to work very well on my Galaxy S6: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chrome.beta&hl=en

This app can do exactly what you want without root. I use it for all kinds of stuff. It's free, has ads every now n then but it doesn't affect performance.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=AutomateIt.mainPackage

I like GTasks for Android, it is a pretty simple app that syncs with one's Gmail tasks pane, basic and functional, that does it for me.

Wow on second thought that's way too complicated. Lost on the second screen. Time for option 2.

Edit: Found this now that I knew what to look for. Thanks!

Also if your schedule is the same every day you can schedule to turn airplane mode on and off automatically. I use an app called automateit for that stuff.

Hello, welcome to the sub. I think it's unnecessary at this moment if you don't see anything wrong. You can check it's accuracy using a time grapher or a WatchCheck app (Android). Usually any internal damage can be seen from it's timekeeping accuracy.

My first thought is Droid48, but that really is only a good idea if you already understand HP syntax (Reverse Polish Notation).

I am sure there are similar Android emulators of TIs and others, but I've not had occasion to use them.

Whatever app you use, #3 will work for simple-ish problems, but not be up to Wolfram Alpha level of sophistication.

They let you use a phone app for class? Might aswell Google the answers.

Casio FX-115es is the calculator that put me though college. It's like 20$ and can even use it on the NCEES tests.

During throughout the day for Survey work I use Droid48 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.ab.x48

It's a reverse polar notation calculator and the DMS is kind of hidden. Purplekey》4》nxt and use the a-f keys to use the functions on the screen.

Reading other comments it might seem too complex for you. It is in general a complex calculator and needs weeks of practice to get to a point of efficiency.

I have an unsorted lis of interesting (to me) android apps:

• buzzkill
• filterbox
• hermit (I use it for facebook web)
• fx file explorer
• Tasker
• FairEmail
• MiniReview (I use this to find good games, don't bother to do it any other way)
• power menu controls
• Dolby on: record audio
• Moon+Reader
• aCalendar+ (great calendar app)
• Calendar Widget https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=sk.mildev84.agendareminder

See https://support.google.com/chrome/thread/25088351/how-to-remove-the-group-tabs-setting-for-android?hl=en for the official response.

tl;dr: Use Chrome Beta, it changes the default so tab groups aren't automatically created.

If you don't want to use Chrome Beta for some reason, setting chrome://flags/#enable-tab-grid-layout to Enabled Without auto group should have the same effect.

I've used Root Explorer since way back when Android wasn't so effectively closed source by effect of the locked bootloaders that each phone manufacturer utilizes these days. It still gets the job done, tho lacks a solid interface for storage management in general.

If I'm not at a PC I use Droid 48 as my calculator of choice. It's not perfect, tends to lose everything on screen rotation which is frustrating, but it works well enough. Haven't found anything better for it so far.

RPN's a recent(ish) thing for me. I never owned a physical RPN calculator but when I was learning Clojure (a lisp-family programming language) a while back I realised I like prefix/postfix notations more than the traditional infix notation so I went looking for options. RPN's not quite the same but close enough, still better than infix. (On a PC I'm more likely to open a lisp REPL and use its prefix notation instead.)

Did you consider a Trello app for your phone?

I've been using this for a while on Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.trello

It's usable for me. Most of my complaints are more about my phone than about the app. My phone's screen isn't the three - monitor setup I have on my desk.

Check out trello. I know that this isn't a notes app per se but it can be used like one. Highly customizable and free with a web version. You will know what I mean once you go through their initial tutorial.

Trello best thing ive found so far :D

If you have an iphone, maybe try omnifocus. The only reason id get an iPhone after this android and its a big one.

Personally, I use Moon+ Reader to read books but never use it to find them. Rather, I organize my books in the filesystem in the way that I want and then navigate the filesystem with a filesystem browsing app (Root Explorer specifically, but others should work too). I then just tap the file that I want to open, and since Moon+ Reader is associated with .epub files, it's the app that's then used to open and read the book.

And since I use syncthing to sync files between my tablet and my computer, I can even organize my files (books included) on my PC instead of having to do it on the tablet.

If the game works then the folder must still be there. Normally Android file managers will only hide folders which begin with periods, but I suppose it's possible it's being hidden some other way. I suggest trying a better file management app, such as Root Explorer or its free version - these have view settings that specifically reveal hidden files.

> When I try to launch the web wallet through Trezor manager, it won't connect to the device when I click on 'check for devices' on my Android phone.

Known bug in Chrome. Run Chrome Beta for the fix.

Ping r/Trezor for other sightings.

> I also downloaded Mycelium and verified my Trezor with it, but I haven't found the address tied to the wallet to send coins to.

Hit receive and you should get an address.

Ping r/Mycelium for other questions.

This app looks like any other on the play store but it is actually very configurable. I have the black transparent agenda on my home screen. You can change every single aspect with color/font pickers throughout. It replaced the APW agenda widget I used for years.

If you want Android widgets for Google Tasks, you're looking for the excellent, unofficial GTasks: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.dayup.gtask

Additionally, if you want a full screen, more powerful interface for Google Tasks, I built one of those: https://tasks.gtaskd.com/

Sorry for the super slow reply...rarely in reddit. No plans for an Android app with widgets, but I'd highly recommend the unofficial GTasks: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.dayup.gtask . I've used it for close to a decade and it's got great widgets.

Root Explorer (doesn't actually require root for most functions) and a windows Shared Folder on same wifi network would allow you to browse and download files from your PC from your phone.

I'm just on Chrome Beta. But like I said, I just checked regular Chrome and the address bar auto hides, so I imagine it's something particular to your OS. What phone are you using?

There's been a few questions on this all over the internet. If just having a widget is important, GTasks give you the option, but imo looks shit.

Haven't found what I've been looking for yet. Hopefully someone implements something

May let you see past notifications. Not sure if it'll help, but a possible workaround.

Happy to. Moving (and/or cloning) a subtree of tasks is already done. On the mobile app, it'll sync with everything else, so for now I'd recommend the unofficial GTasks app on Android that I've been using for years: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.dayup.gtask

Not sure if I'll ever build a separate native phone app, but in the future I'll at least make a more mobile-friendly web version. For now and focused on the desktop version before canvas dies.

I actually currently use Memu, I swapped from Nox quite some time ago, but the process is about the same. Memu just hides their launcher somewhere else.

Root explorer can change from read only, unless they some how hard locked it. It might be a paid app but they have a free lite one called Explorer. You can try that one too.
