  • What feature/app do you use that the majority never talk about?

Still the most feature rich and customizable file manager available, especially when it comes to networking

I just recently replaced it by Material Files that even has proper WebDAV- and multi-window-support.
Unfortunately no direct cloud support. But I've read there are third party solutions to bridge Drive to WebDAV 🤷

Speaking of Clouds: If that counts as "feature", when not relying on my own server I'm a user of Infomaniak's Kdrive that I can connect to via WebDAV and therefore mount it to my phone directly.

        manugraph Well, yeah, I'm not a user of any commercial cloud protocols anymore for years now, but I did consider it a unique selling point of MiX in the past (because it allowed to keep away from the proprietary apps). But apart from the obvious WebDAV, I do still use SMB, FTP and MiXplorer's FTP(S,ES)/Share Server and sometimes its HTTP/WebDAV Server.

        Apart from that, it's got great view modes, (file type) filtering and detailed recursive search, a decent RegEx (multi-)renamer, great operation queue management, quick shell command execution and overall exhaustive customizability. Material Files isn't there (yet), but I'm sure that if you use it for a while, you eventually won't miss the stuff you've gotten used to in MiX anymore.

          faded I've been using this app for a while now, but I'm noticing that when I record it always stops recording at minute 22, why is this happening? Couldn't it last 1 hour recording? Thanks

              Anti2030 This issue is on android 13 and above where system kills the app after some time and we are working on it. Also in beta version we have some fixes so please try the beta version and let me know if it solves this issue. Also join discord for faster response and to get updates about the project. Thanks

                fid02 can you track weight lifting with this or is it more for running+cycling?

                I've been using Flexify to track weightlifting workouts.

                I switched to "Capy Reader" recently and quite liking it.

                      Not suitable for tracking weightlifting. It records and displays the following:

                      • distance
                      • moving time
                      • fastest pace
                      • average moving pace
                      • intervals in meters/km
                      • elevation displayed in graphs by time and distance
                      • aggregated statistics
                      • activity on map

                          https://github.com/umutcamliyurt/MockTraffic A random DNS, HTTPS internet traffic noise generator for Android, this added layer of traffic noise reduces the effectiveness of traffic analysis and profiling techniques, making it harder to identify specific behaviors, websites, or services accessed by the user.

                          https://gitlab.com/cosmosapps/stealth - app to view reddit without account with added on device account-like functions i.e. subscription to subreddit feed, ability to pin posts you like etc.

                          https://github.com/aleksey-saenko/MusicRecognizer - does it's job, no bloat, no cluttered UI, just works

                            Byku To have the Nitterify functionality for a lot more privacy front-ends (e.g. Reddit, YouTube, Medium etc.), have a look at Linksheet.

                            Audile (MusicRecognizer) uses the AudD and ACRCloud APIs for recognition, Audire uses Shazam, which in my tests is more accurate.

                              Byku hey mate, how do you get Stealth to work with the Reddit API changes?

                                  [deleted] It's still working for me. Reddit blocks a lot of VPN addresses, so maybe you can't connect because of a VPN. Can you access reddit in the browser?

                                    fid02 Agreed, OpenTracks is great for running/cycling/hiking etc., I can't see adapting it for much else.

                                    I use GymRoutines as an open source tracker for weightlifting. It's worth checking out if you need something for weight training. I'm in the process of switching over to Graphene - I just installed GymRoutines today, and it appears to work. I've used it without issue for many months on my previous phone.

                                              Clark search what a dashcam is and its usefulness.
