I've recently decided to switch out my Playstore apps for Open Source Apps as they're usually Ad Free and much less bloated. Can we use this thread to help people find open source android apps?

I'll start

K-9 mail, a great email alternative that let's you have multiple users logged in

Red Moon - A customisable night light app which lets you adjust the colour and settings including Colour, opacity and Darkness

Swift Notes - Note taking app

Bitwarden or KeePass as open source password managers. KeyPass is entirely local, unless you sync your password database on the cloud, and Bitwarden is cloud based but with the option to self host the server (I recommend Vaultwarden, it's lighter and written in Rust).

Joplin for note taking, especially if you use Markdown.

KDE connect for sharing files quickly between desktop and mobile - it's better than the proprietary fast share protocols I've tried.

Termux, for shell access and running Linux distros, albeit heavily limited.

Fritter as a Twitter client alternative, though I'm already avoiding Twitter for the most part.

Love Joplin, use it on desktop and mobile both.
