Especially for those of us with no coding background, who can’t just build/edit an app.

For example, I like using Gadgetbridge to replace my fitness tracker app: https://gadgetbridge.org/

It’s not nearly as full-featured as a regular fitness app, but it literally can’t connect to the internet so there’s no way anyone can get my health info.

    Does notally work by syncing online? I haven’t found one that allows me to share notes with family that still is more trustworthy than Google (apart from setting up my own server that I can connect to when I’m out).

      Notally does not have any account or syncing capabilities.

      How do you feel about using Syncthing? I use it to sync my notes and files between myself, but it could work in a family setting.

        Does it work between two cell phones? I thought it required a server.

          It does! And there’s no server, it’s all sync’d locally or encrypted over the internet. You just need to install it on both devices and point them at each other. I don’t believe it works on iphones though. Or at least without jumping through a lot of hoops.

              One word of caution, the folder ID (xxxxx-xxxxx) has to be the same for each folder you want to sync.
